Nate Diaz went five tough rounds against Leon Edwards during UFC 263 and lost by unanimous decision, Jake Paul was quick to predict another fate for Diaz if they were to box each other in the future.

I will knockout Nate Diaz after I knockout Woodley

— Paul Paul (@jakepaul) June 13, 2021

Diaz was asked at the post fight press conference about a possible boxing match in the future, perhaps against one of the Paul brothers and answered confidently.

“They are all options,” said Nate Diaz.

Although Diaz left UFC 263 with a loss, he won the crowd again. In the fifth round, he rocked Edwards and was close to knock him out.

– I’m the better fighter no matter what. [The end] of the fight is what counts. In a real fight, in the real world, that’s the end of it. He went to sleep.
