The Paul vs Diaz fight on August 5 has the boxing community on edge with anticipation. The native of Stockton recently shared a video from his training camp in which he displayed precise boxing maneuvers along with the fight's poster.
‘I’m going to enjoy knocking you the fu*k out’
Jake Paul attacked Diaz harshly in the post's comments section for allegedly showing little regard for the fight's publicity efforts. The former UFC fighter was also charged with failing to appreciate the opportunities and advice given to him by the YouTuber-turned-boxer, according to The Problem Child.
Paul said, “You had my respect for your legacy until you started treating this promotion without respect. I made you my partner, gave you the blueprint to running your own events and you have done nothing but be the same Nate Diaz that worked for the bald man [Dana White]…instead of being your own man. Now I’m going to enjoy knocking you the fu*k out.”
