Both boxers were walked alongside by their famous brothers Logan and Nick, with the YouTubers loudly booed to the ring by fans in the arena.<\/p>\n<p>After balanced first four rounds, round five began to loud chants of &#8220;f*** Jake Paul&#8221;, as both began to show the early signs of fatigue. But halfway through, Paul landed flush and added Diaz to his lengthy list of opponents he has dropped with a big left hook that sent him tumbling almost out of the ring.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Jake Paul knocks down Nate Diaz in round 5 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/tFipOrnnzR\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/tFipOrnnzR<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 \u265b\ud835\udcd2\ud835\udcea\ud835\udcf6\ud835\udcd5\ud835\udcdb\u265b (@CamCWFL) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CamCWFL\/status\/1688049320224817153?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">August 6, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>In his first ninth round in his career, Paul looked surprisingly fresh as both men headed past their previous limits. Diaz had never gone farther than 25 minutes in a five round UFC fight, while Paul had insisted on lengthening the bout after the pair had originally agreed to fight for eight.<\/p>\n<p>The pair was looking for the fences as the last seconds ticked away, and somehow made it to the final bell with Diaz showboating afterwards, thinking he&#8217;d won.
