The MMA Fighting has Diaz vs. Masvidal for the Nate Diaz vs. Jorge Masvidal fight card, live streams for the entire main card, and more from the Kia Forum in Los Angeles on Saturday night. ANAHEIM, Calif. – After months of build, Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal will have their final pre-fight press conference Wednesday ahead of their boxing match this weekend.

When the main event begins around 12 a.m. ET, check out our Diaz vs. Masvidal live round-by-round updates for our live blog of the main event. It will be the first meeting between Diaz and Masvidal in a boxing ring. Masvidal beat Diaz in their lone UFC fight less than four years ago.

Boxing fans, are you ready to watch the Last Man Standing fight between UFC legends Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal? This Saturday, Diaz and Mazvidal will face off in the ring for 10 rounds of a light heavyweight headlining match. The card also features two-time world champion Daniel “The Miracle Man” Jacobs taking on Shane Mosley Jr. in the 10-round super middleweight co-main event, Amado “AFV” Vargas vs. Sean Garcia, Devin Cushing vs. Manuel Correa and Chris Avila vs. MMA legend Anthony “Showtime” Pettis.

And as a result, this might make Jorge Masvidal's pending boxing match with Nate Diaz much more interesting.

Masvidal (1-0, 0 KOs) hasn't boxed professionally since 2005 but has been behind his Gamebred Promotions, which is promoting this card and promoted another last year.

Diaz (0-1) boxed professionally only once and took Jake Paul all 10 rounds in a loss. He was knocked down, but Diaz showed valiant resiliency as always and had his moments, though he was clearly overpowered by the bigger Paul.

Masvidal and Diaz are running back their late 2019 Madison Square Garden-held "BMF" title bout, in which Masvidal won by doctor's stoppage after three rounds.

Given the lack of experience and data for these two in boxing, it'll be a tough one to handicap, but we'll do our best.

The UFC legends have swapped the cage for the ring, five years after they met in the UFC for the BMF belt in New York. On that occasion, Masvidal had his hand raised when the doctor stepped in to stop the fight in the third round when Diaz suffered a bad cut.

Masvidal went on to lose his next four fights in the UFC and has not fought for 18 months, while Diaz has only fought twice since 2019, losing to Leon Edwards before choking out Tony Ferguson in his final contracted fight two years ago. The rivals then agreed to meet in the boxing ring to settle their long-running feud.

Diaz and Masvidal previously fought under the UFC banner at UFC 244 in November 2019. Masvidal earned a doctor’s stoppage TKO after the third round to claim the inaugural BMF belt, and a potential rematch has been discussed ever since.

This fight was originally supposed to take place on June 1 after originally being scheduled in March, but now it's here on Independence Day weekend.

Masvidal, for some reason, is a -270 favorite. His only win in boxing came against little-known journeyman Joseph Benjamin, who was 1-11-2, and that was a majority-decision win.

We know Masvidal grew up street fighting, but we don't actually know where his boxing is in 2024. Diaz, we've at least seen in competition a year ago, though no one would call him Terence Crawford either.

The fight will be contested at light heavyweight – a 175-pound limit. Masvidal is 5-foot-11 with a 74-inch reach and is going to turn 40 in November.

Diaz is 6-feet tall with a 76-inch reach and primarily fights out of the southpaw stance, and he just turned 39 in April.

Diaz's biggest strength is his endurance, which he showed in the Paul bout – a 10-round fight like Saturday's one is scheduled to be. For Masvidal, he'll likely try to pound Diaz on the inside and take away his reach advantage. Diaz will likely try to utilize the two inches, but he also seemed content with banging on the inside even with Paul.

It will finally happen Saturday, but in the confines of a boxing ring. The pair have been promoting the fight for weeks now, and have had four previous press conferences together – one of which ended in a wild brawl between teams.
