UFC welterweight superstar Nate Diaz isn’t a fan of the freshly released UFC and Venum gear
Nate Diaz has emerged to be one of the biggest superstars in the game right now. Even though he has lost two of his previous fights, his stocks remain high to this day, and the UFC is cognizant of that. However, the younger Diaz brother has been adamant on the idea of a move away from the UFC.
The Stockton slugger has his sights set on a move away from the sport, with a feasible jump to boxing. The younger Diaz brother was among the first wave of fighters that set motion the fighter pay dispute. He has been vocal about his contract with the UFC, and along with his brother Nick, became the first of a very elite group of fighters to negotiate PPV points into their contract without a belt.
Its being rumored that the UFC is stalling Diaz’s move by offering him difficult fights, while he has been throwing names at the UFC top brass for his last fight.
UFC president Dana White sent in some fresh gear to the Stockton fighter, and Diaz expressed that he was not a fan of it. He said,’ And here’s 🖕🏼for bitcha.s venum ufc gear 2′
Seems like everyone has turned into a matchmaker for Nate Diaz’s last fight in his UFC contract. Almost everyone except the UFC top brass dismissed the idea of a fight between him and Khamzat Chimaev calling it unavailing and fatuous. But the idea of Michael Chandler vs Nate Diaz excites everyone, including former UFC double champion Daniel Cormier.
Daniel Cormier has adopted the role or broadcaster and promoter after retiring from the sport, and does his best to pump up fight cards, and give back to the game. During a recent episode of his podcast on his Youtube channel, Cormier discussed the idea of a potential fight between Michael Chandler and Nate Diaz, and how intrigued he is my it.
He even suggested that while Diaz might have a difficult time with any other matchup, he might actually benefit from a fight against Chandler, and wants the UFC to setup the fight as soon as possible. He said,
‘I know my boy
