Nate Diaz vs. Jake Paul press conference – what did Dana White recently say about the fight?

Nate Diaz vs. Jake Paul is likely to be one of the biggest-selling events of 2023, based on the popularity of both men across the world.

One person who likely won’t be that interested, however, is UFC president Dana White.

White has always shown disdain for ‘The Problem Child’ and his boxing career, with Paul also throwing shade at the UFC president for his treatment of the promotion’s fighters.

Recently, White went on record to state once again that his interest in the upcoming bout between Paul and Diaz was low.

“I don’t know man. I’ve been trying not to – I like Nate. Nate and I have a good relationship. It’s just, listen, Jake Paul went out and fought a real boxer who was his age, his weight, and he lost. So, as soon as he loses, he goes back to a 40-year old MMA fighter, who’s smaller than him, not his weight. Listen, it’s just one of those fights that – I know some people are into this. It’s just not what I’m into. It’s not my thing.”

Diaz’s last fight in the UFC saw him defeat Tony Ferguson by submission in September, while Paul’s last bout in the squared circle saw him drop a split decision to Tommy Fury.
