Nate Diaz and Jake Paul have received an offer from @PFLMMA to rematch in MMA in the SmartCage. Jake Paul has accepted the offer.
Paul and Diaz squared off in a boxing match on Aug. 5, with Paul winning via unanimous decision. At the beginning of the year, Paul signed with the PFL to compete in MMA in the organization’s pay-per-view division. He is also a minority equity owner to the parent company. The PFL has not yet announced a debut for the superfight division, but it is expected to launch sometime in 2024.
