Nick Diaz is the first celeb I've ever seen that actually says thank you when somebody hands him a drink

[@MnMName]

lmao ppl still hating on both of these guys a lot on daily basis its disgusting. They are such a wonderful combination grown out of a toxic area. Imagine your children growing up where they did.

What did y’all think getting naked in a cage for millions to watch and fighting to the brink of death is all roses 🌹? And on top of that not get paid near as much as other professional athletes. Having to spend part of your earnings to pay for your own coaches and nutritionist. Spending even more time practicing/ training than other professional sports because you don’t want to get the living shit beat out of you. Then potentially lose your job after losing 3-4 fights and now you have cte that will continue to get worse over the years. But I’m addicted to this sport lol even though I just named off all of the worst shit

straight up . he was fukin nate for a while though the thing with nick is like he said he had so much anger built up in him cuz he never did shit about it until he finally starting going out and socializing trying to build som relationships literally he lived the fight life nothing but fighting and staying in the same city until more recently thats why he seems happier

I'm a big Conor fan. But even I have to admit that Nick might be right about the fact that Nate might have won versus Mcgregor if he had been allowed to be in Nate's corner. I like his point about not engaging Conor with punches as obvious as it sounds.

[@Ada_Isabella]

This guy, I ABSOLUTELY HAD NO IDEA how great, real, amazing, funny and so much more he is. No idea! I could listen to him all day. Honestly, Nick Diaz, why don't you start your own KZbin Show that talks about fighting and analyses fighters from your perspective, and you can also do a YT Chanel that teaches people the correct fighting stances and techniques, and you can also talk about nutrition, what you do in terms of triathlons etc. People would tune in. Good luck Nick, I have become your fan immediately.

Theodore Nugent you never heard him talk sense? Nick has such a high MMA IQ it's ridiculous. these guys didn't grow up wealthy and weren't your average middle class kids.. if you listen to him talk he's really reasonable and smart. the fact that they used fighting to get ahead in life proves a lot. these guys are Cinderella men, warriors. they've had my respect since they came on the scene. they can give two fucks about the media, spotlight, or riches. they come to fight, win or lose. lots of ppl think they are idiots but in all honesty those ppl don't know wtf they are talking about

[@Borealis-1]
