Jake Paul claps back at UFC superstar Nate Diaz after Ben Askren comments Instagram\/Jake Paul\/Nate DiazJake Paul has clapped back at UFC superstar Nate Diaz after the Stockton fighter played down his victory over Ben Askren by pointing out that he\u2019s lost six times more fights than Askren. Jake Paul\u2019s boxing career started picking up in momentum after he knocked out Ben Askren in the first round of their Triller Fight Club bout back in April 2021. He kept the ball rolling three months later by beating former UFC Welterweight Champion Tyron Woodley via unanimous decision. Now, he\u2019s looking to do it again in his upcoming fight against Tommy Fury. In an interview with BJPENN.COM, Askren praised Paul\u2019s boxing ability in their fight. Nate Diaz played it down by implying that Askren, who isn\u2019t known for his boxing prowess, simply wasn\u2019t up for the challenge. Paul has now clapped back at the UFC superstar with a cheeky jab of his own. \u201cJake is kind of good at this,\u201d said Askren. \u201cI think what played out is he\u2019s kind of good at it. And if you saw the way I saw it, he was still impressive in his showing, and he has obviously put a lot of time into it. \u201cSo, he\u2019s not bad. I\u2019ll say that much.\u201d Diaz responded to a post of the article. He downplayed Paul\u2019s win by pointing out that Askren is retired and isn\u2019t known for his boxing prowess. \u201cComing from a retired wrestler who can\u2019t fight or box,\u201d he said. Paul clapped back by roasting Diaz\u2019s 21-13-0 UFC record. \u201cYou have six times as many losses as Ben Askren,\u201d he said. \u201cLet that sink in.\u201d you have 6 times as many losses as Ben Askren Let that sink in https:\/\/t.co\/SMTsXkhs9i \u2014 Jake Paul (@jakepaul) November 23, 2021 Diaz hasn\u2019t responded yet.
