Every so often, here at BJJEE we come across news that aren’t about Jiu-Jitsu…
But that are super exciting in the world of combat sports as a whole.
For example, the news that a boxing match between Jake Paul and Nate Diaz has been booked!
The 185lbs bout will take place on August 5, 2023, and will consist out of 8 rounds.
It appears to be a cross-promotion event, featuring both Paul’s “Most Valuable Promotions” and Diaz’s “Real Fight Inc.“:

Paul and Diaz have both been taking jabs at each other for some time already, both openly looking for a match to happen.
For example, Diaz attended the Jake Paul vs Anderson Silva boxing match… Where he managed to get into an altercation with some of Paul’s team members, slapping one of them in the face.
