Jake Paul promises to KO Nate Diaz, end his career: ‘Saturday is his last day of being a fighter’

DALLAS – Jake Paul is confident he’ll put an end to the legendary fighting career of Nate Diaz.

The YouTube star turned professional boxer sees himself putting away Diaz and being the last opponent of his career. The two meet in a 10-round professional boxing match this Saturday at American Airlines Center. The bout will air on pay-per-view.

“Whatever he wants to do,” Paul said of the perceived lack of promotion from Diaz. “Saturday is his last day of being a fighter. I’m knocking him the f*ck out, putting him to sleep. He’s a b*tch. He’s a bully. He’s not a professional like I am. That’s why I’m doing it at the highest level. That’s why he needs me to make these fights.”

You can watch Paul’s full scrum with the media at Wednesday’s open workout in the video above.
