UFC legend Nate Diaz has made a crazy 'real fight' claim about boxing superstars Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua.

Diaz walked away from the UFC following his submission victory over fellow MMA legend Tony Ferguson as he took on Jake Paul in a boxing bout.

But he dropped a decision to 'The Problem Child' in his debut inside a squared circle.

However, the Stockton slugger likes his chances against WBC world heavyweight champion Fury and former title holder Joshua, claiming he'll 'f**k up' the pair of British fighters in a 'real fight'.

He made his outrageous claim while smoking a spliff in typical style.

Speaking to social media influencer Sneako, who recently got beat up by former UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland in a spar, Diaz exclaimed: "I'll f**k up Tyson Fury. I'll f**k up Anthony Joshua. All these motherf**kers in a real fight, like, they don't stand a chance. And then it's like, we've got, everybody's going on boxing [Floyd] Mayweather."

The 38-year-old added: "We're playing a little game... I don't like being like, labeled as an 'MMA fighter'.

"I'm a boxer. I'm a Jiu-Jitsu guy. I'm a kickboxer. I don't like any of the one-dimensional things by itself anyway. I like it all."

Diaz hasn't fought since his defeat to Paul last August.

Being a free agent, he's able to fight in any discipline or promotion.

Despite leaving the UFC, he eyed a spot on UFC 300, calling for a showdown against former foe Conor McGregor.

However, he doesn't think he'll compete on the April 13 card.

Asked about a fight at UFC 300, he replied: "I wanted to, but I don't think so. I think I wanna do boxing, fight another fighter.

"I could fight anybody in the world right now, but no one can fight me. Everybody's locked down to organisations, locked down to the UFC, PFL."
