Kamaru Usman has claimed Jake Paul could potentially beat Jorge Masvidal or Nate Diaz in MMA.

Masvidal and Diaz are set to enter the squared circle for a boxing fight this summer. The two previously fought each other in the UFC for the inaugural BMF championship.

Jake Paul claimed he wants to fight an MMA fight ahead of their battle and would love for it to be against either Nate Diaz or Jorge Masvidal. Moreover, he even offered $10 million to the two fighters for a fight in PFL.

Speaking about the same, former UFC champion Kamaru Usman recently gave his thoughts. While many believe Paul will have no chance against Masvidal or Diaz, Usman is uncertain of the outcome.

While suggesting that anything could happen, Usman said: “Honestly, at this point I don’t even know what to think anymore… I don’t completely say it’s a wash, that [Jake] has no chance in there…Everybody has a chance, and like I said, the world is upside down for me right now… it’s not far-fetched, it could happen.”
