However, Jake Paul spared no time in attacking Diaz for not respecting the promotional efforts. He also lashed back at Diaz for not considering the guidance and opportunities Jake had offered him. He wrote-
“You had my respect for your legacy until you started treating this promotion without respect. I made you my partner, gave you the blueprint to running your own events and you have done nothing but be the same Nate Diaz that worked for the bald man [Dana White]…instead of being your own man. Now I’m going to enjoy knocking you the fu*k out.”
