Jake Paul promises to show improvement in Nate Diaz fight: “This lion is going to come out and maul this dude”

Jake Paul knows the performance he had against Tommy Fury won’t cut it going forward.

Paul showed heart when he fought Fury earlier this year. It was clear that he was being beaten to the punch, but he was never truly out of the fight. While the social media star suffered the first loss of his pro boxing career via split decision, “The Problem Child” has used it as a learning experience.

Now, Paul is set to meet Nate Diaz in the main event of a Showtime Boxing card on August 5. Jake Paul and the Stockton native will trade leather inside the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas.
