How Will Jake Paul Do In MMA?

Jake Paul has signed a contract with PFL MMA and calls out Nate Diaz.

After improving his boxing record to 6-0 by beating arguably the best MMA fighter of all time Anderson Silva, Jake Paul has decided to test himself in MMA.

Many will deny Jake Paul’s boxing talent, but to stand toe to toe with Anderson Silva and knock him down makes Jake a good boxer in my books. While Jake might be a good boxer by MMA’s standards it’s hard to tell how he will do in MMA especially against the likes of Nate Diaz.

Nate Diaz is a legitimate MMA fighter, with a Jiu jitsu black belt, years of boxing experience, and fantastic cardio. While I can overlook the years of boxing experience and be generous to say Jake is close to him, it’s hard to overlook the ground game of Nate Diaz compared to Jake.

Jake was known to be a good wrestler back in his day but that was high school. Jakes shown no signs of training wrestling or Jiu jitsu since!

So even if he is able to keep the up with Nate Diaz in the boxing, it’ll be a bad night for Jake if the fight goes to the ground.

While nothing is signed yet, it seems this fight is agreed to by both sides. Let’s hope Jake Paul can get his Jiu jitsu up to par fast if he wants to hang with Stockton’s finest.
