Jake Paul blasts ‘turd’ Dana White over Nate Diaz’s UFC contract situation

Jake Paul has some thoughts on the ongoing dispute between Nate Diaz and the UFC.

As expected, the YouTube star-turned-boxer gave opinion on Diaz’s contract dispute with the UFC and the latest comments from Diaz and UFC president Dana White.

Diaz on Saturday refuted White’s comments and said he hasn’t been offered a fight in nine months, contrary to what White told reporters at UFC on ABC 3.

“Dana The Turd White degrades Nate Diaz to the media & then in private gets on his knees begging Nate to stay so they can try & revive Conor McGregor,” Paul wrote on Twitter. “Get on your knees & beg you old f*ck.”

Those comments come on the heels of a recent interview by Diaz in which he aired his frustrations with the company. Diaz claimed he’s being held “hostage” by the promotion while he looks to complete the final fight of his deal and test free agency.

White said Diaz is painting a false narrative. He said Diaz has been offered fights, but has refused them. White wouldn’t go into detail on what fights had actually been offered to Diaz.
