Jake Paul reveals new drugs test results on fight week before Nate Diaz showdown

Jake Paul has once again posted the results of his most recent VADA drugs test, just days away from his fight with Nate Diaz.

The 6-1 (4 KOs) YouTuber-turned-boxer is set to face the UFC legend, who will be making his boxing debut, live on talkSPORT on Saturday night/Sunday morning from 4am.

Both men have signed up for VADA drugs testing for the fight, as Paul has done before.

He previously did the same before his defeat to Tommy Fury earlier this year.

Neither man recorded any positive drugs tests before that fight and Paul has taken to social media on multiple occasions during this camp to confirm that the same is happening again.

Last month, Paul posted a letter he received from VADA, confirming the result of a test taken on July 6.

It was indeed negative.

And now, on fight week, he has posted another letter from VADA, confirming the result of a test taken on July 19.

Once again, it was negative.

The letter read as follows: "This letter is to advise you that one or more specimens collected from the below-named athlete has analysed for performance-enhancing drugs through the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association (VADA) program.

"Results for the date(s) listed below are complete:

"ATHLETE: JAKE PAUL. DATE: JULY 19, 2023. RESULTS NEGATIVE.

"We will keep the Texas Combative Sports Program, MVP Promotions, the ABC, and BoxRec apprised of all results of both A and B samples."

Diaz has not posted any of his VADA drugs test results, though this is not unusual.

It is uncommon for a fighter to do this, but Paul is seemingly determined to dispel theories of cheating that exist around his name on social media.
