Watch “Last Man Standing” tonight as Nate Diaz attempts to avenge his loss to Jorge Masvidal on DAZN.

Tonight, (Sat., July 6, 2024), live from Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif., we’ve got the combat sports rematch between long-time mixed martial arts (MMA) practitioners, Nate Diaz vs. Jorge “Gamebred” Masvidal. Yes, it’s coming in the punching-only variety, but is anyone really all that upset that the two mostly standup fighters won’t have the option to go to the ground?

Fisticuffs it is!

Both fighters are known for their feisty and cantankerous outside-the-ring/cage behavior, and none of that has changed as the two, uh, “gentlemen” age and mature.

To sweeten the pot, this card, which starts at 9 p.m. ET/ 6 p.m. PT, has a surprisingly decent undercard of names most boxing fans will recognize as well as some undefeated prospects. We’ve got former IBF and WBA Middleweight champion (and bone cancer survivor), Daniel Jacobs (37-4, 30 KO), squaring off against Shane Mosley Jr. (21-4, 12 KO) in the co-main event of the evening.

There’s also unbeaten prospects Sean Garcia (7-0-1, 2 KO) — younger brother of boxing’s current Icarus, Ryan Garcia — who will go against Amado Vargas (10-0, 4KO), the son of former IBF and WBA light Middleweight champion, Fernando Vargas.

Finally, to round out the main card, we’ve got the former WEC and UFC Lightweight champion, Anthony Pettis, going off against long-time Diaz stablemate, Chris Avila. Avila has done well for himself in the influencer boxing scene, racking up a five-fight win streak as the combat sports spoiler to the likes of Anthony Taylor and Paul Bamba, as well as taking down another former MMA competitor in Jeremy Stephens.

The fight card is available on Fanmio, UFC Fight Pass and DAZN (right here) in select countries for the reasonable price of $49.99.
