Nate Diaz record

Diaz's boxing record stands at 0-1, following that defeat to Paul, but he made a name for himself in the octagon.

The 38-year-old competed at Lightweight and Welterweight during his MMA career, which he has yet to close the door on.

His record stands at 21-13, and while he has never won a world title, he was the winner of The Ultimate Fighter 5, which got him a contract with the UFC. He has the third-most UFC bonus awards, with 16 in total and remains a fan favorite for his no-nonsense style and toughness.

He famously had two fights against Conor McGregor, winning the first fight by submission at UFC 196, before McGregor got revenge five months later at UFC 202.

Jorge Masvidal record

Masvidal's boxing record is marginally better than Diaz's at 1-0, but he also is known for his success inside the octagon.

He also competed at Welterweight and Lightweight during his professional MMA career and fought under the promotions of UFC, Bellator, Strikeforce, Shark Fights and World Victory Road.

He holds the record for the fastest knockout in UFC history at five seconds, but he, too, has never won a world title.

Three of his most famous wins in the UFC came over Darren Till, Ben Askren, who he stopped inside five seconds, and Diaz.

However, his UFC career ended with four straight defeats. Two of those came at the hands of Kamaru Usman, while Colby Covington and Gilbert Burns also got the better of him.
