Jake Paul Signs with PFL and Calls Out Nate Diaz...Nate Diaz Chooses Rizin instead

Jake Paul, the famed Youtuber turned boxer who beats up washed athletes and MMA fighters is now fighting in the Pro Fighting League which has had some growth via ESPN coverage and signing fighters like Anthony "Showtime" Pettis and "Platinum" Mike Perry. Their newest edition is certainly going to bring views to the PFL octagon being ninety percent of the MMA community still wants to see Jake lose. I guess he really thought he'd be able to get Nate to sign with the PFL for at least one fight. However, Nate has other plans. As the sport of MMA has been growing there have been a decent amount of companies or leagues that have really picked up a good following. Obviously, there is the UFC in the US, but One dominates Asian viewership and puts out really good fights. Bellator has been like the UFC's little brother since their existence. Now there's the PFL which is a very new company almost overtaking Bellator's position due to being a better product in my opinion. Rizin has been around in Japan and offers a slightly different watching experience as the mixed martial arts take place inside a boxing ring. Nate is definitely going to bring some viewership over to Rizin as the Diaz Brothers' Army will forever stand strong.

Frankly, I am glad we are not going to see Nate Diaz vs Jake Paul. Nate does not need to entertain the clown show that is Jake Paul. I also would hate to see Jake knock Nate out in boxing, being that was a part of Jake's offer. I think Nate is going to do great things in and for Rizin. I'm very happy for Nate as he is free to fight whoever and wherever he wants now.

As for Jake, I hope we get to see the "Problem Child" vs "Platinum" Mike Perry. In my opinion, that would be a great fight because both guys just want to stand and bang as I imagine Jake's ground game is somewhat non-existent at the moment and Mike Perry just loves the war. Mike vs Jake could be very fun, yet also very dangerous for Jake. If I was the PFL I might not feed Jake to Mike in his first fight, but maybe his second. However, from the fan perspective, Perry vs Paul is the fight to make. Easy money.
