Jake Paul is still itching to face Nate Diaz in an MMA fight.

In a video uploaded on his YouTube channel Thursday, Paul challenged Diaz to a rematch in the PFL, where he's expected to make his MMA debut this year.

"(PFL aims) to put on the biggest pay-per-views in MMA, one of which being my first fight in MMA," Paul said. "Where you at, Nate? Come on over to the PFL and let's do a massive fight.

"We at the PFL just bought Bellator, another massive MMA organization, signed Francis Ngannou, and are making big deals happen. And Nate, at the PFL, unlike the UFC, fighters can have their own sponsorships."

Paul has been trying to set up an MMA match against Diaz for the past few months and said in November that the former UFC star would be the "perfect person" for his debut.

The YouTuber turned prizefighter is the PFL's head of fighter advocacy and a partner in its super fight division.

Paul and Diaz squared off in August in a 10-round boxing match, which Paul won via unanimous decision.
