VIDEO: Jake Paul Shows Up On a Tank for Boxing Match With Nate Diaz

Paul was flanked by his security team as he rolled into the arena on a tank to take on the UFC veteran.

Jake Paul made quite an entrance when he showed up to the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas ahead of his boxing match with Nate Diaz.

The bout quickly became one of the most highly-anticipated fights of the year when it was first announced, but after hype around the matchup died down in recent months it even seemed as if Diaz was disinterested in promoting it during the week of the fight.

Combat sports fans still got plenty excited to see Paul and Diaz square off once the day of the fight finally arrived, and “Problem Child” provided one of the night’s early highlights when he rolled into the arena riding on a tank.

The move was certainly one of the wildest spectacles in recent memory for boxing or MMA fans, but as impressive a showing as it was from Paul, it’s likely that Diaz is entirely unconcerned about how the 26-year-old decided to enter the American Airlines Center.

The former UFC title challenger will be entering the boxing ring for the very first time when he meets Paul, who began his own career with six victories before suffering his first loss against Tommy Fury earlier this year.

“Problem Child” already holds wins over UFC veteran Ben Askren as well as former champions Tyron Woodley and Anderson Silva, but there are plenty of MMA fans that hope Diaz will finally be the one to break that streak when the pair enter the ring later tonight.
