Jake Paul aims dig at Conor McGregor by branding UFC rival Nate Diaz ‘WEAKEST puncher ever’ and reveals £15m fight offer

JAKE PAUL aimed a dig at Conor McGregor by branding Nate Diaz the “weakest puncher” he has faced.

Diaz famously became the first to beat McGregor in the UFC in March 2016 before losing the rematch five months later.

YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul then defeated Diaz himself in their boxing bout in August 2023.

And he slammed the MMA veteran’s power and questioned how McGregor, 35, was beaten all those years ago.

Paul said on his podcast: “He’s the weakest puncher I’ve ever fought.

“When he was hitting me, I almost started laughing. I’m not even saying this to talk s***.

“Out of everyone I’ve sparred in my whole entire life and everyone I’ve fought, his punches are the weakest.

“I’m literally not even talking s*** which is why I think it’s funny that he dropped Conor. He is the weakest puncher I’ve ever fought.”

Paul, 27, has continued to challenge Diaz, 39, to a rematch in MMA and claimed there is an offer of $15million to do it.

He said: “He’s actually ducking it which is why it’s crazy because he’s not in the UFC.

“We upped it to $15million. But he actually doesn’t want to do it.”

Diaz returns to the ring on July 1 against Jorge Masvidal, 39, who he lost to in their 2019 UFC fight.

Meanwhile Paul faces ex-UFC star-turned-bare-knuckle boxer Mike Perry, 32, on July 20.

He was due to fight Mike Tyson, 57, but the bout has been postponed to November 15 after the boxing legend suffered an ulcer flare up on a flight.
