Following a YouTuber boxing match, Nate Diaz was seen in New Orleans ‘choking’ a Logan Paul lookalike until he went unconscious on the street.
The brawl happened when Diaz attended a boxing match event to support Chris Avila, who is his teammate.
Who is Rodney Petersen look alike of Logan Paul as he gets routed by Nate Diaz in viral video: Bio, age, family, TikTok
According to reports, the claims were wrong, as he was not Logan Paul.
Diaz was seen choking out a man who was later identified as Rodney Petersen, a popular TikTok user who looks very much like Logan Paul, Jake Paul’s brother.
34 year old Rodney Peterson is a father to four, who works building fences and back in 2020, he decided to make a TikTok account due to some funny competition between him and his wife. At the time, he was mostly posting about his hobbies, music, and Jiu-Jitsu on TikTok.
The Viral Video of Nate Diaz
As shown in the video, Diaz choked Petersen, the TikTok star, unconscious and on the street. Unknown as to what sparked the argument, a woman’s voice can be heard imploring both guys to stop in the background.
In response to the viral video, UFC President Dana White humorously questioned whether the man Diaz choked out was actually Logan Paul. Diaz “is going to get sued like a motherf-cker,” he continued.
Conor McGregor offered Diaz an odd buddy, tweeting, Hahaha, Nate is on a rampage tonight! Nate, let’s go! Hahaha.”
This wasn’t the only fight Diaz got into that night. A water bottle was thrown by him at reality television personality and fighter Chase DeMoor earlier that evening, resulting in a fight at Misfits Boxing.
Conor McGregor reacted as soon as he saw the video, having competed against Diaz in the UFC and having both defeated and lost to him.
Fans Wait Eagerly To Know Diaz’s Next Step
The incident occurs four months before Diaz is scheduled to receive a sizable payoff when he competes against the younger Paul sibling after choosing to finish out his contract with the top MMA organisation.
Later this year, he will be competing in a highly anticipated boxing battle against Jake Paul. However, in light of the most recent incident, some fans are speculating as to whether Diaz will be spending more time fighting on the streets than in the ring.
