JAKE PAUL ridiculed Nate Diaz, saying "I already beat your guy up" and then telling the UFC veteran: "You can get the smoke too."
Diaz began the unorthodox online spat by calling out Paul for calling Conor McGregor out and branding the internet star a "spoiled f ***'.".

Jake Paul uploaded an Agazarm sparring video.
He uploaded a sparring session between Diaz and his training partner AJ Agazarm on social media.
Paul, 25 tweeted: "I really beat up your boy.
"Aye @NateDiaz209, I already beat your guy up, come get your mens then you can smoke too."
Later, it was revealed that the sparring session had taken place in 2017.
Agazarm also filmed a MMA video together with Paul. The social media star was then forced to quit.
Diaz, 37 years old, quickly responded and revealed that Diaz was being controlled in the cage.
After McGregor claimed that he had sent him a $50million check to fight, Paul made headlines in 2020.
He caused a stir when he called the former UFC champion an "Irish c ***'" and insulted his fiancee Dee Devlin.
Paul stated: "I know that you're beating up old dudes at a bar or maybe you're j***ing off because you're sick and f***ing with your wife. She's a four out of ten, Conor, you could do a lot more, but happy Monday!"
Surprisingly, Diaz leapt to defend McGregor, his opponent in the fight. The pair fought twice together in 2016.
He tweeted, "Jake Paul, u need to beat your ass for free u spoilt f*** you can't really win dumbs*** you gonna end up having your ass whooped real somewhere talking about that."
Next month, Paul will be back in the ring against Anderson Silva, a highly anticipated bout.
The Problem Child was supposed to fight Tommy Fury on August 31, but plans were canceled after a problem with the Brit's US visa.
After choking Tony Ferguson in his last UFC fight, Diaz has now promised to "takeover" boxing.
In the fourth round of the T-Mobile Arena Las Vegas, he secured a guillotine choke over his welterweight opponent.
