Former Interim UFC Lightweight Champion Dustin Poirier shared his expectations from the upcoming fight between the ex-fighter of the promotion Nate Diaz and boxing blogger Jake Paul.

The fight according to the rules of boxing will take place on August 5 in Dallas, USA.

“I can’t call Jake some incredible boxer, but he devoted himself to this sport. In addition, he is young, has explosive power and a good punch. All he needs is one accurate hit.

I think Jake will win, although I could be wrong. Nate can wear him down and we know he has a good gas tank. So we'll see. But I don't think Nate will be able to stop him. Jake is quite large compared to Nate,” Poirier said in an interview with MMA Fighting.
