The highly anticipated rematch between Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal is set to take place on June 1 at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California, but this time it will be in the realm of boxing. This event, dubbed “Last Man Standing,” is contracted for 10 rounds at 175 pounds and is expected to draw a significant amount of attention from fans and critics alike.
Diaz and Masvidal, both former UFC stars who have since departed the promotion, are no strangers to each other. Their first encounter in the octagon ended with Masvidal claiming victory via TKO (doctor’s stoppage) in the UFC 244 main event back in 2019. Despite their MMA backgrounds, this upcoming boxing match will provide a new platform for these two fighters to showcase their skills and settle the score once and for all.
The decision to stage this rematch was driven by the desire to address the unfinished business left behind from their first meeting. Masvidal, eager to prove that his previous victory was no fluke, is determined to eliminate any doubts surrounding his superiority over Diaz. On the other hand, Diaz is fueled by the need for revenge and redemption after being stopped prematurely in their last bout. Both fighters have made bold statements regarding their upcoming clash, promising to deliver a spectacle that will put an end to any speculation about their abilities.
In preparation for the event, a multicity promotional tour is being planned to generate excitement and anticipation among fans. With Fanmio handling the distribution of the fight, expectations are high for this showdown between two of the most iconic figures in combat sports history. Fanmio’s CEO, Solomon Engel, expressed enthusiasm for the rematch, highlighting the significance of bringing together two true BMFs who have consistently drawn massive crowds and pay-per-view buys.

The clash of styles, personalities, and motivations between these two fighters is expected to captivate audiences and cement their legacies in the world of combat sports.
