Breaking news! Nate Diaz and Jorge Masivdal will meet in a rematch of their 2019 MMA fight. There’s one difference, however. This one will take place under boxing rules!
As per Ariel Helwani, the two men will meet on June 1st at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California. The bout will take place in a 175-pound, light heavyweight fight across 10 rounds.
Dubbed ‘Last Man Standing’, the fight will be presented by Fanmio PPV, the same promotion that promoted Floyd Mayweather vs Logan Paul in 2021.
The PPV will be priced at an early price of $49.99 until April 12th.
Fanimo will put on the fight in association with Nate Diaz’s Real Fight inc and Jorge Masvidal’s Gamebred Boxing Promotions.
We will provide more details as they come out.
UFC 244 Fight
The two men headlined UFC 244 at Madison Square Garden in the first ever ‘BMF’ title bout. What wasn’t very ‘bad’ about the fight is that Masvidal won via doctor’s stoppage due to a cut for Diaz.
Since then, neither man had any real luck in MMA after this fight. For Diaz, in the boxing ring, he faced Jake Paul and unfortunately for fans of Diaz, he came away with the L on the night.
Let’s just look forward to the promotion, the trash talking and a highly competitive fight!
