Are u serious never misses weight, what ufc have u been following?

UFC on Fox 13 Weigh-in Results: Nate Diaz Misses Weight

That's nate missing weight for a headline Co main event bout for the title too? And he still got knocked out that fight.

Nate Diaz Skips UFC on FOX 13 Open Workouts

Team player right, that's him skipping open media day workouts. Read the article Dana directly says he wld get even more money and ish if he wld jus play the game. I guess instead he rather jus pout n keep on whining.

What more of a push does he want? He's gotten over 20 fights, hes gotten title fights, hes gotten fights vs the top guys cowboy, rds , Ben Henderson. Hes headlined 6 cards, what more of a push does he want? Does he want dana to bend him over backwards n give em sum pushes from behind?
Out of 22 fights he's only missed weight once, Dos Anjos didnt knock him out either but this may have played a role for that all fukkery on that fight week

Keeping my overhead low, and my understand high
So he's gotten 10 years worth of fights in ufc and headlined 6 of them most guys don't even get 10 fights. What's he bytchin about?

How about he actually win when he gets a title shot, every time he does he has lost.
Faber always loses and gets paid well. That's push

Anybody else think Nate won the first round too? His boxingbwas on point and kinda exposed Conor for keeping his hands low.

I would give Conor that first round but only by a small margin. Conor was hitting Nate with some BOMBS in the first round, but at the same time Nate was catching Conor with some jabs. A lot of people overlooked that Conor was catching jabs as he was trying to close the distance because all they saw was a bloody Nate.

justinbieberNo bandwagon but Conor is a true champion, fights with style and finesse, all the respect to Nate but his style is terrible. Nate has crazy heart respect.
:mjlol:
Nate's response

Diaz fukkery! :blessed:

:russ:Nate has been cracking me up more than any fighter in a long time. I love this more since I can't stand Bieber's racist ass.

Most def agree with this.

After I saw the fight a 2nd time I still gave the round to Conor but it was much closer than it felt watching it live at the bar.

The 2nd round was pretty even too but Nate did better work. Even before the 1-2 that rocked McG he was catching him with some stiff ass jabs that stopped Conor in his tracks.

SN: all this "2 weight class" talk has to end about McG. RDA is right, he fought a 155er. There was no physical advantage other than height and reach

No but it wasn't domination like many have declared. Conor was clearly winning, even before the reversal and ground n pound at the end but Nate was hitting him with shots before that.

Nah. A lot of people made too much of the cut opened up by Conor but he won the first. Conor's got really bad striking defense TBH.
