Jake Paul beat Nate Diaz via unanimous decision in their boxing match.
However, if Paul really wants to face Diaz in an MMA match… It appears that he should start working on his submission defense.
Late in the final round of the match, Paul and Diaz were stuck in a clinch.
Paul lowered his head – which allowed Diaz to get a Guillotine Choke around his neck!
Of course, Diaz had to release the submission after a few seconds. But he taunted Paul afterwards.

Jake Paul revealed that the choke was actually in tight:
He fu*king choked me! He was actually choking me. I was like, this is crazy!
I didn’t think he was going to stop but he had it in.Obviously, I’m not going to try to defend it, but it’s just funny. I was like, this is crazy.
What’s more, Paul claims that if it were an MMA match, he would’ve had an answer to the choke:
That’s why I want to do it back in MMA. It’s fun. I’m with all that sh*t.
If it was it was MMA, I would have dropped to a Double Leg, picked him up and dropped him on his head.
