Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn has shared his thoughts on the bout between Jake Paul and Nate Diaz.
The pair are due to meet on August 5th in a ten round contest after it had originally been scheduled for eight rounds.
The UFC legend, Diaz, will be making his professional boxing debut but the Matchroom promoter doesn’t fancy his chances against the YouTuber come boxer.
A clip of Nate Diaz training on the pads clearly didn’t impress Hearn.
Speaking to the MMA hour he said,
“I watched clips of Nate Diaz hit pads.
“You know that it’s going to be a mismatch against Jake Paul, don’t you?”
“It won’t go four. I mean, listen, unless it’s all a bit of a bluff by Nate.”
“We can have a friendly bet on that fight… I’ll give you 3-to-1 on Nate Diaz if you want.”
