Jake Paul vs. Nate Diaz is officially set.

Jake Paul has proven many doubters wrong with his boxing skills. The former child star has defeated MMA stars like Tyron Woodly and Anderson Silva. Also even took Tommy Fury to a split decision, in which Paul lost. The loss to Fury was Paul's first loss inside a boxing ring. However, that isn't stopping Paul from getting back in the ring. Because it was reported on Wednesday that Paul has found his next opponent, Nate Diaz.

Paul vs. Diaz is slated for August 5th of this year. The big fight will be held under the Most Valuable Promotions banner. As well as being live on DAZN PPV. This fight has long been rumored to be Paul's next appearance in the ring. Now the dream is a reality. Diaz will join the ranks of fellow MMA legends that have shared the circle with Paul. However, Diaz may be the best boxer of all the former MMA legends that Paul has faced. The bout could potentially be the most watched fight of Paul's so far in his career.

Jake Paul Is Getting What He Asked For In Diaz

Diaz, along with his brother Nick, are favorites among the MMA fanbase. The Diaz brothers always show up to fight. While never giving the fans a boring showing. The fight between Paul and Diaz is just screaming money. Both fighters know how to work a mic in the buildup as well. Diaz has already been a part of one of the biggest rivalries in the fighting realm with Conor McGregor. The pair have split their fights at 1-1. However, a third has yet to be discussed between them.

There's no need to discuss what the biggest fight event of the summer will be. Jake Paul vs. Nate Diaz will even bring non-fight fans to the party. Paul's name still brings a heavy draw. So does his brother Logan, who is a current WWE superstar. One can only hope that we see both brother duos during the buildup of this one. However, the Pauls better be ready. The Diaz brothers do not come to play. What are your thoughts on the big fight announcement? Will you be watching Paul vs. Diaz?
