However, Paul recently said Diaz rejected a fight in the MMA because he knew he would get beaten.
Diaz denied that such a conversation took place.
He wrote on X:

What did Jake Paul say?
Paul, during an appearance at Full Send Podcast, said Diaz is afraid of putting in line his legacy in the field he once dominated.
He explained that Diaz was dodging an MMA encounter between them by asking for huge compensation.
"I think it's too big of a risk, right?" Paul said.
"$10 million, but if he loses to me it's legacy. He's going to get made fun of and he felt the power. I don't think he could take me down. ... It's kind of a lose-lose situation for him. That's why behind the scenes on the business side of things, he's making outrageous number claims and negotiations and wanting such unrealistic things. ... It's like Nate is ducking me."
