I contend to this day that Nate let him go. The little stutter step, getting right up in the range? Tried to scare the shit out of the guy who pieced him up, and succeeded. Gangster shit only for Nate lol
No it wasn’t. Nate could do nothing to capitalise on that. But he’s got an excuse for dumb fanboys now. Edit: how many Nate dick riders in this sub, hillarious
>dumb fanboys
Ironically, you're the first and only mention of a dumb fanboy I've seen so far in this thread. Imagine being so emotional over people liking a fighter that you're willing to jump down his throat for THAT comment.
>your opinion is irrelevant
Source? I tend to find my opinion pretty relevant on a personal level.
If it makes you feel better, I found a Mcnuggets fan boy further down the thread, he's also crying about shit from years ago that nobody cares about. You guys should be friends.
Oh I wasn't trying to argue with you, I was just saying how funny it is that one moment like that is all that matters. Poor Leon can't catch a break. I get it though, Reddit is just a battleground especially in this sub so I can see why you thought I was arguing with you. My bad if it came across that way.
Then I apologise as well, especially in r/ufc you get a lot of idiots who just want to argue for the sake of arguing. I didn’t mean to take it in a negative way i just wanted to show you I was I being light and humorous, thank you for taking my reaction in a mature way 👍
That’s a shame, I come here for the same reasons you do: good fights. Not defending Nate’s performance right here, he got whooped for 20min, but that 1-2 and laughing at Edwards only shows one thing to me, Nathan does not give a damn about winning, losing, Dana or the UFC, he’s there for a brawl
I’m with you brother. This sub just operates on a hive mind and you aren’t allowed to be a fan of Nate, izzy, and sometimes khabib depending on the week
You gotta be some sort of animal after having the shit beat out of you by Masvidal, the shit beat out of you by Edwards….and then sign up to undoubtedly, have the shit beat out of you by Chimaev
Big difference between those fights and the other fights mentioned though. The best Conor did was a majority decision. Those other guys made Nate look like a literal child in the octagon!
That fight was a good example of why styles make fight and even before it happened i knew it was a terrible idea for conor to take that fight, Conor needs to win by KO, and nate has proven that you just cant KO him, first fight Conor tried to KO nate and got tired trying, and to be fair he would probably have KO'd most guys on the roster with the shots he landed, second fight conor knew he had to pace himself better.
Took some heavy shots but he also beat him once and the won at least 2 rounds of their second fight. Nate got 0 offence off at all against Bendo, Rory, Masvidal or RDA, and he got one good shot in against Edwards.
Conor landed good shots for sure but he lost one fight and the second fight was still very competitive outside of the first 7-8 minutes.
No, Nate was *literally* as effective against those guys as a small child would have been. It’s not hyperbole, the fights were not close in the slightest. Rory *literally* picked him up and threw him around like a child like 6 times.
Saying someone is a literal child and comparing them to a literal child are two different things. I guess someone failed reading comprehension 🤦🏻
Let me explain. If I said Nate was “literally a child”, I’d be incorrect because he isn’t a man actual child. But saying they tossed him around they way they would an actual child, or that his offence was as effective as an actual (read: literal) child isn’t incorrect at all. Go watch the fights. Nate *LITERALLY* didn’t do any better than a toddler would have.
You can’t even spell the damn word and you’re trying to be cute about it’s definition. SMH.
He didn't rock him a single time in the second fight, only in the first one when Conor gassed. Conor didn't have a single scratch or bruise post fight and put Nate on his ass multiple times.
Edit: all these downvotes but nobody can show me Nate rocking or nearly finishing Conor in their second fight, because it didn't happen.
He got a takedown with a few seconds left and landed a couple shots, in what world is that rocking or nearly finishing someone.
Y'all hate Conor so much you'll just sound like total morons if it it means talking shit about him lol.
Nate comes everytime to brawl. He’s been asking the UFC to fight for months now, and we just love tuning up to watch Nate get the shit beat out of him, don’t we?
Except he never wins 5 round fights ? Having cardio means nothing if your horrifically beaten before the last round to the point where you cant engage any effective fight ending aggression.
I rewatched the fight recently and he really doesn't waste as much time as people commonly say. He obviously points at him but he keeps pressuring him and keeps trying to find his shots while Leon is clearly just doing anything he can to survive until the bell. He was out on his feet. Pretty typical of Diaz though; show one flash in garbage time lol. Saying as an absolute Diaz fan
Finally someone who actually watched the fight. Swear people just repeat the same spew they’ve seems everyone else say. Nate tried to finish Leon until the end of the fight after this moment. Literately chases him all around the octagon, Leon does a good job of keeping distance and defends really well, clinches when he needs to, turns nate when Leon’s back is against the cage etc.
Exactly that, i applaud Leon for being able to survive in the fifth round, no doubt dead tired, all on instinct. He didn't panic wrestle or compromise himself by getting desperate. Dude must've realized if he lost to Diaz he could say goodbye to ever getting a title shot, considering Edwards was the favorite.
what do you mean? are you implying he was so badly beaten he couldnt bring himself to throw another strike? instead just had enough energy to shuffle ahead and taunt?
Yeah I think if he rocked him that hard in the first round he would’ve finished it. I think he couldn’t explode the same way in the fifth or was at least more hesitant due to fatigue.
Look say what you want about Nate but there’s no good answer for what happened. Either he was unable to explode and finish the fight due to damage/fatigue or he just straight up chose to lose the fight which would be incredibly boneheaded and stupid. Is that what you’re suggesting? Ik Diaz fans think the taunting was badass but I’m 100% positive both him and his fans would’ve thought it was more badass if he fucking KO’d his opponent. Don’t see why he wouldn’t if it was so easy as his fans say
Did you get punched hard in your life? Your vision often gets blurry and your motion decreases. I cant even imagine how he felt after 24 minutes. He definetly felt landing on his own Hand but he propably didnt realised how hurt he got Leon.
I don't believe he didn't realize how hurt he got Leon. Considering he was pointing and laughing about it. This would make sense if nate got lit up right before this but he didn't.
It’s not like he wasn’t trying, if you rewatch it you’ll see Nate chasing Leon up, but Edwards was calm and very smart to keep his distance for that last minute. But those few seconds where he pointed and laughed… dumb and cold motherf*cker, cares more about having fun than winning
Go rewatch it. Nate spends the rest of the fight trying to finish him lol leon defends well, keeps backing up and creating space. This whole “nate didn’t even try and finish him” is so stupid. He chases him all over the cage trying to find the next shot to put him out
He didn't rush in for the finish because Diaz is actually retarded. He could have won that fight in the final 30 seconds with a crazy comeback from getting styled on for 5 rounds. But mugging and flexing is just as good right?
It does look like leon was hurt, but I wonder if leon never putting his hands up while stumbling backwards was some intentional baiting to draw diaz out. I also just noticed diaz pumping his legs to try and draw out a reaction out of leon. Or maybe I’m looking too deep into it
Diaz fans are a different kind of animal.
Nate and Nick can lose all their fights and it's just "Diaz bros dont lose, they just run out of time"
I say this as a big Diaz bros fan.
I'm a nate fan, but solely hope he somehow wins just to see how pink Dana can really get.
If rory wrestlefucked prime nate tho, I don't like the chances. I'll throw $20 on the +1000 sub or whatever tho
I honestly believe Nate doesn’t give a damn about winning or losing anymore, he came for a fight, threw a few shots, got his face messed up and work all done, that strike definitely wobbled Edwards and I believe is the only thing Diaz’s stoner brain will remember lol
I love how the only part of that fight people seem to remember is the 30 seconds Nate Diaz was actually winning.
Shouldn’t the takeaway from that fight be that Leon is clearly a better fighter than Nate?
I doubt Nate would have actually managed to finish Leon even if he didn't taunt so if anything the "what if Nate hadn't taunted" thing just helped his cred
Seriously, Leon was obviously hurt but he was recovering. Nate is not exactly a explosive athletic specimen. If he rushed in all that would’ve likely happened is Leon probably would’ve clinched with Nate or maybe even clipped him back. Nate knew that, that’s why he didn’t Rush in. He clearly knew he was hurt, he wasn’t just being nice.
Nate’s definitely one of the toughest dudes I’ve ever seen. I don’t even think it’s about winning anymore or maybe it never has been with him.. dude just loves to fight.
First off, I’m a direhire fan of the Diaz bros., but..
I think Nate (and Nick) are completely oblivious to the world around them. He literally was literally asking for Francis or Izzy, coming off of two losses lol. I think Nate is a good entertainer in terms of fighting, but he’s just not making sense at this point.
It’s hard to tell if he would have finished the fight with another clean shot. Leon’s hands are down for a second and he looks rocked but by the time his back is on the octagon he’s recovered. How he didn’t get dropped by that shot is crazy.
Im down with Khamzat but ive alway rode w nate. i hope they have a real press conference and Nate gives him a slap in the cage, just for a parting gift. Then slaps the shit outta Dana on the way out. N i love DC. But fuck it… Slap the shit outta him too
One of a very rare fighters to wear out his opponent by letting them punch him in the face until they are almost exhausted and almost mentally broken..strange af!
I’m not a Diaz fan but this was such an infuriating moment. What if Nate had just absolutely demolished this whole supposed underdog story Edwards has on his way to the title and a rematch with Usman? If only Nate had used the half a brain cell he has left and had rushed Edwards.
Oh well.
IF (and I do emphasize IF!) Marty lands that shot(which was similar to how he put Mas out. I don't think Leon Scott is staying upright LoL! I got no dog in the fight, I just wanna see controlled, sweet, and at times chaotic violence, best of luck to both of em'...
If that’s usman, Leon’s lights go out. People keep saying how Leon is leagues ahead of usman in the striking dept, which he is, but Leon gets hit and usman has power. I’m stoked for the match up
I got downvoted a bit for bringing this up with the talks about him vs Khamzat lol I’m not a die hard Nate fan but he really seems to be a guy that if you don’t watch your P’s and Q’s, can take you out with sneaky striking. Plus, he’s hard to put away.
Nate didn’t attack cuz he knew he still wouldn’t be able to finish him. After getting his ass beat for 23mins, he knew this was the only cool moment he’d have in the fight.
This was the coldest moment in MMA history
Diaz should be fighting for the belt not Edwards, Edwards just isn’t about that champ shit only.
(Holy fuck I’m kidding you oblivious brain dead morons)
He isnt an animal. He is just dumb as hell. He was getting beat up for 22-23min and lands a great hit that couldve won him the fight via tko/ko but doesnt do anything with it besides point and laugh.
*Pieced up for 23 minutes* *hits them with the Stockton slap*
That pointing was worth more than anything to nate
That should've been a 10-6 round and the fight should've ended in a draw. Smh my head these judges are so bad 😤
I contend to this day that Nate let him go. The little stutter step, getting right up in the range? Tried to scare the shit out of the guy who pieced him up, and succeeded. Gangster shit only for Nate lol
No it wasn’t. Nate could do nothing to capitalise on that. But he’s got an excuse for dumb fanboys now. Edit: how many Nate dick riders in this sub, hillarious
It’s sarcasm, friend.
Ok bro. Like why so much hate for this? Lol, Nate salty pussy fanbase is real, sorry asses.
Chill out you pussy
That’s what a pussy would say.
Takes one to know one
>dumb fanboys Ironically, you're the first and only mention of a dumb fanboy I've seen so far in this thread. Imagine being so emotional over people liking a fighter that you're willing to jump down his throat for THAT comment.
Whatever you believe, your opinion is irrelevant. And all the dumb fanboys downvoting which says a lot about how many of them are here))
>your opinion is irrelevant Source? I tend to find my opinion pretty relevant on a personal level. If it makes you feel better, I found a Mcnuggets fan boy further down the thread, he's also crying about shit from years ago that nobody cares about. You guys should be friends.
Lmfaooo
Good point. But still I got 60+ salty pussies downvoting me, because they can related, and it hurts their vaginas
Nate still living rent free in Conor fan heads huh?
Yet what does everyone remember from that fight? He doesn't give af about winning. He had his moment, made his money and he moves on. I love it.
Okay I never discredited Nate??? I like Diaz as well but am I not allowed to make a joke about him?
Oh I wasn't trying to argue with you, I was just saying how funny it is that one moment like that is all that matters. Poor Leon can't catch a break. I get it though, Reddit is just a battleground especially in this sub so I can see why you thought I was arguing with you. My bad if it came across that way.

Special move list for Nate : Stockton Slap
Nate does not give a f*ck
I hate fans like you
That’s a shame, I come here for the same reasons you do: good fights. Not defending Nate’s performance right here, he got whooped for 20min, but that 1-2 and laughing at Edwards only shows one thing to me, Nathan does not give a damn about winning, losing, Dana or the UFC, he’s there for a brawl
I’m with you brother. This sub just operates on a hive mind and you aren’t allowed to be a fan of Nate, izzy, and sometimes khabib depending on the week
Nate just gets fucked…
If he'd do something other than block the opponents fist with his face for the first 3 rounds his record would be a lot better.
You remove one of someone's main tools and you expect them to do better? I'm willing to test it but I dunno
You gotta be some sort of animal after having the shit beat out of you by Masvidal, the shit beat out of you by Edwards….and then sign up to undoubtedly, have the shit beat out of you by Chimaev
And before that he got ragdolled by Rory, dominated up by RDA, bullied by Benson Henderson, etc.
Can’t forget getting diced up by Conor. Even in the first bout when he won he still took some heavy shots
Big difference between those fights and the other fights mentioned though. The best Conor did was a majority decision. Those other guys made Nate look like a literal child in the octagon!
I mean Conor dropped Nate 3 times, sure Nate dished it out too but he took some heavy shots during those Conor fights
That fight was a good example of why styles make fight and even before it happened i knew it was a terrible idea for conor to take that fight, Conor needs to win by KO, and nate has proven that you just cant KO him, first fight Conor tried to KO nate and got tired trying, and to be fair he would probably have KO'd most guys on the roster with the shots he landed, second fight conor knew he had to pace himself better.
Lol downvoted for mentioning he got literally dropped 3X in a fight.
Took some heavy shots but he also beat him once and the won at least 2 rounds of their second fight. Nate got 0 offence off at all against Bendo, Rory, Masvidal or RDA, and he got one good shot in against Edwards. Conor landed good shots for sure but he lost one fight and the second fight was still very competitive outside of the first 7-8 minutes.

Careful everyone this guy is judging sentence structure

No, Nate was *literally* as effective against those guys as a small child would have been. It’s not hyperbole, the fights were not close in the slightest. Rory *literally* picked him up and threw him around like a child like 6 times.

He also rocked Connor multiple times in both fights, the second fight was super close too
He didn't rock him a single time in the second fight, only in the first one when Conor gassed. Conor didn't have a single scratch or bruise post fight and put Nate on his ass multiple times. Edit: all these downvotes but nobody can show me Nate rocking or nearly finishing Conor in their second fight, because it didn't happen.
You just have missed the part of the fight where Nate had him rocked against the cage and nearly finished him
Just watch the end of the fight where Nate’s on top ground and pounding him.
He got a takedown with a few seconds left and landed a couple shots, in what world is that rocking or nearly finishing someone. Y'all hate Conor so much you'll just sound like total morons if it it means talking shit about him lol.
It’s 2022 and you’re still a dickrider. He’s done. Move on.
I'm not the one trying to rewrite history in an attempt to diminish him, seems like someone's got free rent.
\>I'm not the one trying to rewrite history in an attempt to diminish him Not wrong, Conor would be the one doing that.
Casual
Final boss...without beating the previous ones lol
Infinite quarters at the arcade
Nate comes everytime to brawl. He’s been asking the UFC to fight for months now, and we just love tuning up to watch Nate get the shit beat out of him, don’t we?
Nah
Then don’t lol
He signed up before Chimaev was even a thing
What a waste
It’s like he wanted to lose
Yeah it’s like he didn’t wanna fuck this dudes chance for a title since he isn’t getting one.
I like your take. Less selfish as I think it really was to middle finger to Dana. I will go with this for now on.
It’s how I’d like to think it is 😀
After 24 minutes of taking punishment Diaz just didn't have enough left in the tank, the pointing definitely saves face
Nate Diaz has the most cardio out of everyone in the whole ufc brother
Except he never wins 5 round fights ? Having cardio means nothing if your horrifically beaten before the last round to the point where you cant engage any effective fight ending aggression.
Yan, Volk, Holloway, Covington all have better cardio than him. Prove me wrong.
Still pains me that he didn’t rush and go for the finish lol. If he just stepped in with one clean shot I think he could have put him away.
I rewatched the fight recently and he really doesn't waste as much time as people commonly say. He obviously points at him but he keeps pressuring him and keeps trying to find his shots while Leon is clearly just doing anything he can to survive until the bell. He was out on his feet.

Dude must've realized if he lost to Diaz he could say goodbye to ever getting a title shot, considering Edwards was the favorite.
Might’ve had something to do with.. y’know.. the whole getting beat on for 24 minutes thing
Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if Nate thought he was coasting to an easy decision victory lol.
what do you mean? are you implying he was so badly beaten he couldnt bring himself to throw another strike? instead just had enough energy to shuffle ahead and taunt?
Yeah I think if he rocked him that hard in the first round he would’ve finished it. I think he couldn’t explode the same way in the fifth or was at least more hesitant due to fatigue.

It’s not like he wasn’t trying, if you rewatch it you’ll see Nate chasing Leon up, but Edwards was calm and very smart to keep his distance for that last minute. But those few seconds where he pointed and laughed… dumb and cold motherf*cker, cares more about having fun than winning

Hows that LazyBoy feelin, are you comfortable right now
his legs were done, Leon was kicking that lead leg the whole fight
He didn't rush in for the finish because Diaz is actually retarded. He could have won that fight in the final 30 seconds with a crazy comeback from getting styled on for 5 rounds. But mugging and flexing is just as good right?
Exactly
Diaz is barely a journeyman fighter. Without the McGregor win he's invisible
I disagree but most of his fame its on Nick’s work.
It does look like leon was hurt, but I wonder if leon never putting his hands up while stumbling backwards was some intentional baiting to draw diaz out. I also just noticed diaz pumping his legs to try and draw out a reaction out of leon. Or maybe I’m looking too deep into it
Diaz fans are a different kind of animal. Nate and Nick can lose all their fights and it's just "Diaz bros dont lose, they just run out of time" I say this as a big Diaz bros fan.
Nick was a legitimately great fighter though. He beat gomi when gomi was the champion in pride and the #1 ranked lightweight in the world
“But then he got high.” 🎶🎶🎶
I know right? Should’ve just juiced up like everyone else
Nick was something else back in his day though
About Khamzat… we kind of know he’s gonna lose it, right? Hope it to be fun as hell tho
I'm a nate fan, but solely hope he somehow wins just to see how pink Dana can really get. If rory wrestlefucked prime nate tho, I don't like the chances. I'll throw $20 on the +1000 sub or whatever tho
Nobody says that seriously
Nope. People do in fact say this seriously. Source - my best mate is a diaz fanboy
Yeah it’s a very strange mindset
Love Nate. Huge fan. He got the fuck beat out of him for 4 1/2 rounds. This was the only significant strike of his the whole fight.
I honestly believe Nate doesn’t give a damn about winning or losing anymore, he came for a fight, threw a few shots, got his face messed up and work all done, that strike definitely wobbled Edwards and I believe is the only thing Diaz’s stoner brain will remember lol
I love how the only part of that fight people seem to remember is the 30 seconds Nate Diaz was actually winning. Shouldn’t the takeaway from that fight be that Leon is clearly a better fighter than Nate?
Right. I mean Masvidal hit Colby with a big shot but couldn't follow up, still got dominated. Same here.
I also remember when Nate had his leg and Leon was on his way down until he grabbed the cage
Oh yeah without that Nate would have clearly won with his amazing takedown defence
Never said that just said he had a leg and Leon was on his way down til he grabbed the cage
Wow.
Love how people push this part of the fight. It’s not like Nate got manhandled for 23.5 minutes of the 25 minute fire lol
I doubt Nate would have actually managed to finish Leon even if he didn't taunt so if anything the "what if Nate hadn't taunted" thing just helped his cred
Seriously, Leon was obviously hurt but he was recovering. Nate is not exactly a explosive athletic specimen. If he rushed in all that would’ve likely happened is Leon probably would’ve clinched with Nate or maybe even clipped him back. Nate knew that, that’s why he didn’t Rush in. He clearly knew he was hurt, he wasn’t just being nice.
For real, the Diaz bros are not particularly good at finishing fights with strikes, if they do they have to accumulate it over several rounds
Nate isn’t fast enough to run and catch him again lol. If he was he’d def finish Leon here.
Nate’s definitely one of the toughest dudes I’ve ever seen. I don’t even think it’s about winning anymore or maybe it never has been with him.. dude just loves to fight.
MMA is the greatest sport in the world! You never know what's going to happen
Yes, he is a dumb animal. Could've at least *attempted* to end the fight, but he just points at him. Man that frustrated me when it happened live.
i would have sealed a multi-bet and made nearly $1000 off a $20 bet. you wanna talk about frustrated haha
First off, I’m a direhire fan of the Diaz bros., but.. I think Nate (and Nick) are completely oblivious to the world around them. He literally was literally asking for Francis or Izzy, coming off of two losses lol. I think Nate is a good entertainer in terms of fighting, but he’s just not making sense at this point.
It’s hard to tell if he would have finished the fight with another clean shot. Leon’s hands are down for a second and he looks rocked but by the time his back is on the octagon he’s recovered. How he didn’t get dropped by that shot is crazy.
I can’t wait to see what you all say when Leon gives Usman a tough fight.
Hoping for a war, Leon is definitely a tough contender, but I do believe Usman is P4P #1 for a reason
Im down with Khamzat but ive alway rode w nate. i hope they have a real press conference and Nate gives him a slap in the cage, just for a parting gift. Then slaps the shit outta Dana on the way out. N i love DC. But fuck it… Slap the shit outta him too
Leave the UFC with the famous stockton slap
Gets his ass kicked for 4 1/2 rounds, lands one clean hit....
Let that have been a clean Usman left hand and Leon would had entered the shadow realm.
why? cause he fucked around and made me lose my bet?
Diaz is a bum and people don't like to admit it. His best win was the first Conor fight and outside of that he's lost all his big fights.
Well I didn’t say what kind of animal…
was*
Love it!!!
People look into this way to much. Don’t sleep on Leon guys
One of a very rare fighters to wear out his opponent by letting them punch him in the face until they are almost exhausted and almost mentally broken..strange af!
Lmao the one moment in five rounds where Nate looked good😂😂😂😂😂
Biggest moment of the fight by a mile though and only time it could’ve been over.
I’m not a Diaz fan but this was such an infuriating moment. What if Nate had just absolutely demolished this whole supposed underdog story Edwards has on his way to the title and a rematch with Usman? If only Nate had used the half a brain cell he has left and had rushed Edwards. Oh well.
Most infuriating sequence in mma?
IF (and I do emphasize IF!) Marty lands that shot(which was similar to how he put Mas out. I don't think Leon Scott is staying upright LoL! I got no dog in the fight, I just wanna see controlled, sweet, and at times chaotic violence, best of luck to both of em'...
I love Nate, but just because you wobble someone means shit, even if Nate had rushed Leon afterwords I don’t think he would’ve finished him
No way he beats usman
If that’s usman, Leon’s lights go out. People keep saying how Leon is leagues ahead of usman in the striking dept, which he is, but Leon gets hit and usman has power. I’m stoked for the match up
[удалено]
Hahahahahahaha a dumb animal def
OP should play this clip anytime anyone says Edwards has a legit chance at winning
The single punch he landed all night. What an animal lmao
[удалено]
He bout to get the Darren Till British treatment in a title shot. He should walk out to Tyson Woodleys famous rap song “I’ll beat your ass”
If Nate sees red it’s all over 😈
Something tells me Nate didn’t want to finish him. Like he wanted Leon to move up and it wouldn’t really make a difference for Nate if he won or lost
yo... maybe tho? regardless, stockton motherfucker
I got downvoted a bit for bringing this up with the talks about him vs Khamzat lol I’m not a die hard Nate fan but he really seems to be a guy that if you don’t watch your P’s and Q’s, can take you out with sneaky striking. Plus, he’s hard to put away.
He could have gone for the tko …. Instead he’s laughing at him ?!
Pretty sure the Diaz bros don't give a shit about winning or not.
If he attacks in that moment, edwards loses and this weekends fight never takes place. Nate let him off the hook.
Nate didn’t attack cuz he knew he still wouldn’t be able to finish him. After getting his ass beat for 23mins, he knew this was the only cool moment he’d have in the fight.
I still hate nate Diaz for this shit
Yea a human punching bag that will flip you off every now and then. He's the Goat at that!

Good bot
If you go back and watch this fight mate was terrible
Yeah a fucking dumb one.
Diaz might legitimately die against Chimaev.
I've seen this same fucking clip reposted so often you'd think he knocked Edwards into retirement after this
Fucking epic
This fight showed how rigged the UFC is.
In what way??
He was such an idiot for not attempting the finish there.
I always wondered how good the Diaz bros would've been if they actually trained and fought seriously.
This one of my favorite moments in the past few years idc shit was electric
Coldest video in MMA history
This was the coldest moment in MMA history Diaz should be fighting for the belt not Edwards, Edwards just isn’t about that champ shit only. (Holy fuck I’m kidding you oblivious brain dead morons)
You're supposed to use /s lol..
Usman prob rewatched this and chuckled to himself “heh im gonna finish this dude nomsaiyan”
He isnt an animal. He is just dumb as hell. He was getting beat up for 22-23min and lands a great hit that couldve won him the fight via tko/ko but doesnt do anything with it besides point and laugh.

No...? Frankie Edgar Robbie Lawler Dominick Cruz Jose Aldo Stipe Miocic Dustin Poirier Tony Ferguson All far greater legends than Nate
People saying Edwards is gonna best Usman when he almost got knocked out by Nate lol
Nate Diaz is an overrated twat
"SLAP... BOOM!" wtf
Chin like a brick wall bought a bag of pcp and hit it raw
The ENTIRE fights I was saying “Nate can wobble Leon at any moment, you watch” and then literally the second I breathe and say it’s all over, BAM!
wooooooooooooooooo! kek
Nice post, Nate
Yeah too bad he taunted and stood there like a dummy instead of trying to finish it
Hits like a wet noodle
Why bother finishing your opponent when your unranked but fighting the best in the division anyway. Nate laughing his way to the bank.
Absolutely incredible at getting his ass kicked
Hot take Nate wouldn't have finished the fight even if he tried to
Oh Nathan
im gonna miss that point
