YouTuber turned pro boxer Jake Paul expects to beat MMA star Nate Diaz via a fifth-round KO in their upcoming boxing match in Dallas, Texas.

He’s so sure to win that he offered Diaz a $10 million MMA rematch after the boxing fight. And as Paul is signed with the PFL he’s expected to compete within the promotion’s pay-per-view “super fight division” if he ever makes his pro MMA debut.

“Once I beat his ass on Saturday, he’s going to want revenge,” Paul said. “I think he’ll want that get-back. And he’ll realize that he’s not going to get as much money once he loses to me anywhere else.”

Nate Diaz is not buying it

However, it seems like the Stockton native has zero interest in fighter for the Professional Fighters League.

“I don’t fight for that organization,” Diaz said about Paul’s offer. “If we do something, we’re going to do something real. Co-promotion, if anything.”

The 38-year-old might not have so many years left as an active fighter, but there is still a lucrative third fight against Conor McGregor that could potentially materialize.

“It will probably either be back in the UFC, or do something like this in an MMA style – or boxing, either one,” Diaz said about his future as a fighter.
