Jake Paul has arrived to his fight against Nate Diaz in style.

Well, sort of.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer rolled into the arena in a huge tank.

That's right, Paul was casually sitting on top of the war machine as it made its way down the hallway at Dallas' American Airlines Center.

We've seen some very interesting arrivals in boxing throughout the years.

Prince Naseem Hamed making his way to the ring while flying in on a magic carpet springs to mind as perhaps the most unique.

But this one, right here, might just top it.

In footage posted to Paul's social media, the former Disney child actor can be seen rolling into the arena on top of the tank while clenching his fists.

When the vehicle finally arrives at its destination, Paul simply hops off and walks towards the locker rooms like it was nothing.

Commenting on his Instagram post, UFC legend Jon Jones said: "Well, that’s a first."

While one fan added: "Best entrance ever."

As another replied: "Me when I get my income tax return amount."

Arrivals aside, Jake must now focus on tackling mixed martial arts great Nate Diaz in a boxing match.

It's Diaz's first boxing bout following a brilliant career inside the octagon and the build-up has been spicy to say the least.

Both fighters haven't held back when it comes to the trash talking, adding even more fuel to this already interesting scrap.

As it stands, bookies have appointed Paul as the favourite.
