Diaz himself is a former UFC legend with a record of 22-13, and he will fight BKFC\u2019s Mike Perry in what will likely be the second to last bout of the evening. MVP, the boxing promotion founded by Jake Paul that is now getting into MMA, is calling the card a \u201ctriple main event.\u201d Yet another former big UFC name, Francis Ngannou, is expected to be the third-to-last bout of the evening in a tilt versus Philipe Lins. Kalshi will get its green lego on the waistline of the back of Diaz\u2019s shorts and work on social media programming with Diaz. The deal was brokered by combat sports executives Andrew Capucetti, Brad Baskin and Zach Rosenfield. It was not immediately clear whether Kalshi will also serve as an advertiser during the Netflix broadcast. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kalshi will sponsor MMA fighter Nate Diaz in Netflix\u2019s debut card in the sport this weekend at Intuit&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":666245,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[570],"tags":[64,63,18577,786,785,85],"class_list":["post-666244","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mma","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-combat-sports","tag-fighting","tag-mma","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/666244","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=666244"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/666244\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/666245"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=666244"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=666244"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=666244"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
