Nate Diaz Reveals Injury

Diaz spoke to reporters during the post-fight press conference. The former UFC title challenger claimed that he suffered a right arm injury before sharing the ring with Jake Paul (h/t MMAJunkie)

“I’m not trying to make excuses, but about a month back I was trying to stay big and I hurt my arm a little bit,” Diaz said. “It was wearing and tearing on my right arm if I was jabbing or doing stuff. … I think I should’ve kept on the outside and do more stuff. It’s all good. There’s no way I’m not going to show up for a fight for something like that, too. You’ve got to go regardless. No matter what.”

Nate Diaz has expressed interest in fighting Paul again. The Stockton native has said he’d be fine with either an MMA bout or another boxing match. Paul has offered Diaz an MMA fight if it’s under the PFL banner. Diaz has said that if the PFL is going to be involved, then the event has to be cross-promotion. Diaz has been getting his Real Fight Inc. promotion off the ground, and he’s trying to give it the attention it needs to take off.
