Former UFC welterweight headliner Nate Diaz scored his first professional boxing victory by outpointing two-time 170-pound title challenger Jorge Masvidal as part of the “Last Man Standing” pay-per-view (PPV) event last weekend in Anaheim.

Defeating “Gamebred” pushed Diaz to 1-1 in the “sweet science” after suffering a debut loss against celebrity pugilist Jake Paul back in summer 2023. But don’t let his recent success fool you into thinking he can still hang with world-class UFC fighters.

That’s according to former welterweight champion Kamaru Usman.

“Nate Diaz is completely on the tail end of his career,” Usman said on his Pound 4 Pound podcast with Henry Cejudo. “Yes, of course he’s made a big name for himself. This ain’t, ‘Nate Diaz is gonna come back in and walk into fighting world class mixed martial arts fighters right now in the UFC.’ C’mon. That’s absurd. That’s crazy. He’s not a world-class fighter. Are you crazy?”

Not as crazy as this in-ring banter.

“Throw Nate Diaz in there with Shavkat Rakhmonov,” Usman continued. “Throw Nate Diaz in there with myself. Throw Nate Diaz in there with [Jack Della Maddalena]. Throw Nate Diaz in there with Justin Gaethje. C’mon. Nate Diaz … PFL … Jake Paul will offer you $15 million to go to MMA and fight him in MMA? I’m taking that, Nate Diaz. I think he actually wins a fight like that.”

Diaz, who turned 39 back in April, parted ways with UFC following his submission victory over Tony Ferguson at UFC 279 back in late 2022. Paul offered the Stockton slapper an MMA rules rematch under the PFL banner, but the bout failed to materialize.

Probably because Diaz remains a “hoe,” according to “The Problem Child.”
