YouTuber-turned-pugilist Jake Paul is poised to re-enter the boxing realm next month, with a much-awaited showdown against former UFC sensation Nate Diaz.

The bout will take place on August 5, 2023, at the American Airlines Centre in Dallas, Texas. This upcoming fight is even more significant because it marks Diaz's formal debut in professional boxing. Whereas, Paul is looking to rebound after losing to Tommy Fury earlier this year.

Jake Paul recently shared a training video that left fans buzzing with uncertainty about his prospects against Diaz. The footage showcased 'The Problem Child' pounding a heavy bag, leaving fans questioning his preparedness to face off against the seasoned Stockton native.

Jake Paul proposes a $100 million offer to Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg

Jake Paul recently mused on a potential MMA clash between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg.

'The Problem Child' boldly declared that the highly-anticipated fight between the two tech billionaires could materialize in the near future. To sweeten the deal, Paul offered an astonishing sum of $100 million for charity if Musk and Zuckerberg agreed to engage in a bout.

In a recent episode of BS w/ Jake Paul podcast, the former Disney actor remarked:

"I think it very well could happen and I have a $100 million offer for Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg to take this fight to the Middle East, to promote it, to put it on for charity. We can guarantee that money."

He added:

"It's funny because Dana White's sitting there talking about, 'I don't do gimmick fights, I only do real fights'... And then all of a sudden wanting to jump on this train so badly and making it go into the UFC. To me, it's just ironic."
