Moreover, this wasn't the only call-out 'The Problem Child' made as he even called out Canelo Alvarez:&quot;Nate Diaz, stop being a bit*h and fight me and Canelo, you too! You too, Canelo. You guys said, 'Oh, you can't beat someone, you can't beat a striker, you can't beat a legend like Anderson Silva.'&quot;SHOWTIME Boxing@ShowtimeBoxing&quot;I want Nate Diaz...You too Canelo.&quot;@jakepaul 🗣️ #PaulSilva2244336&quot;I want Nate Diaz...You too Canelo.&quot;@jakepaul 🗣️ #PaulSilva https://t.co/B4oGEcDH0ZWhile the fight against Canelo Alvarez seems to be a little too far fetched at the moment, Nate Diaz could very well be Paul's next opponent. It is worth noting that Diaz also had an altercation with Paul's team backstage and allegedly slapped one of his team members.Watch the altercation below:
