The burning question is, ācan Jake Paul, aka āThe Prlbm Child'' find himself back in the W column after a loss he claims to blame outside excuses on, or will Nate Diaz upset the major sportsbooks across the country and get his first win as a professional boxer in his boxing debut? Who are you throwing your coinage on?
Letās find out.

PREVIEW š
Recently, Jake Paul experienced his first professional boxing loss, suffering a split decision defeat to Tommy Fury in February. Prior to that, he had gained significant attention and popularity by defeating prominent MMA figures, proving himself more than just a "YouTube boxer."
On the other hand, Nate Diaz concluded his UFC career last September with an impressive victory over Tony Ferguson via a fourth-round choke submission. Diaz has been a beloved figure in MMA due to his outspoken nature, leaving a trail of bloodied opponents in the octagon, and handing Conor McGregor his first UFC loss.

Final odds may change before the fight
š¤ WHY NATE DIAZ CAN WINā¦
Heās the better combat sports competitor
Heās more experienced
Heās more accomplished in the fight game
Some individuals may underestimate Diaz's boxing abilities. However, people shouldn't count out the under just yet.
š
While some might believe that Paul's size and other factors could pose challenges for Nate, donāt be surprised if and when heāll prove the haters wrong.
š¤ WHY JAKE PAUL CAN WINā¦
Heās younger
Less damaged
Bigger
Hits harder
In a fight against a quote -unquote inexperienced āprofessional boxerā, these factors could play a crucial role. Diaz's background in effective boxing from his MMA career provides a chance for him to perform well; however, Paul can knock you out in one punch with the power behind him. If Nate isnāt careful, one of those could EASILY send Nate to the canvas.
