UFC 5 - DIAZ VS MASVIDAL BACK YARD STAND AND BANG
UFC 5 - DIAZ VS MASVIDAL BACK YARD STAND AND BANG
Tonight, the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, will host a highly anticipated boxing match between former UFC stars Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal. This 10-round light heavyweight bout marks a rematch of their 2019 UFC encounter, where Masvidal emerged victorious via technical knockout.
Both fighters have successfully made weight, with Diaz coming in at 175.6 pounds and Masvidal at 175.2 pounds. The event, originally scheduled for June 1, was moved to July 6 to avoid conflicting with UFC 302.
This match represents a significant transition for both athletes as they venture into professional boxing. It's Diaz's second boxing match following his loss to Jake Paul in 2023, while Masvidal makes his professional boxing debut.
The undercard features several notable bouts, including:
Daniel Jacobs (37-4) vs. Shane Mosley Jr. (21-4) in a super middleweight clash
Anthony Pettis (1-0 boxing, 25-14 MMA) vs. Chris Avila (5-1 boxing, 8-9 MMA) in a light heavyweight contest
The event is set to begin at 9 p.m. ET, with the main event expected to start around midnight ET. Fans can stream the fight on DAZN PPV or PPV.com for $49.99.
As for predictions, Masvidal is favored to win, potentially capitalizing on his refined skills and street fighting background. However, given the unpredictable nature of two MMA fighters transitioning to boxing, the outcome remains uncertain.
This match not only represents a clash between two popular fighters but also serves as a test of their adaptability to the boxing ring. With both Diaz and Masvidal known for their striking in MMA, it will be interesting to see how their skills translate to the more specialized realm of boxing.
