IMO Nate better take a fight soon or all the juice from the Johnson/McCokehead fights is gone. I'm not saying take a fight/damage for nothin but eventually fans move on and hype dies.
I think Nate gets roasted by most of the top lightweights/welterweights on the planet. He's in the mix at LW but he would get Molly whopped if tried to fight Kevin Lee. Mo towns biggest challengenther Would be with the scales.

Nate would box up Kevin Lee and then sub him with a guillotine or triangle while Kevin tries to wrestle fuck him

I like this fight, Lee is pretty nasty. Lots of shit to be talked before the first round, very high entertainment payoff.

Kevin lee whoops Diaz ? Your nuts lee can’t box with Diaz and if he gets to the ground Diaz would sub him I’m pretty sure

I predict Maia wins this weekend by RNC other picks are Cannoneer over Reyes by KO and Leprise will stop Luque by TKO also plan on watch Andrea Lee's UFC debut

I'm scared for Demian, his BJJ is top notch but the guy he's facing is young and a freak athlete and good wrestler, if he can stuff the take-down a la Woodley, Maia might be in for another whooping. If Maia gets his back or gets to the ground in some advantageous position, well, we'll know real quick where Kamaru's BJJ game is.

It would be nice to see Maia strangle Usman to sleep

Big name with no belt hasn't fought since 2015 losing 3 of his last 4 with his last win over BJ Penn in 2011.
He finished Frank Shamrock so he's legit badass but I dunno can he hang with these guys today?

I think so. He fought GSP, Anderson Silva, and other great fighters. He lost to GSP and Silva, but they couldn't stop him. It was a decision. He's got the cardio, boxing, and bjj to go up against any of today's fighters. Not saying he takes a belt, but he's always been a top tier fighter. His cardio is probably his greatest strength. Dude does triathlons when he isn't fighting. I'd say a combination of all his skills keeps him a contender. I find him to be one of the most entertaining fighters I've ever watched. That's just imho, of course. Tremendous athlete, great fighter.

For sure he's a bad mofo, his attitude makes it fun in contrast to guys hugging in the middle of the octagon (I can appreciate it all)
With exception to GSP the most recent guys he's fought are nowhere on the radar. All due respect to those guys' and their careers.
It'd be nice to see him enter welterweight or middleweight and shake some things up, maybe go punch up Colby Covington a bit, would at least make for good shit talking.

He's fought some heavy hitters, definitely some household names like Condit, Lawler, Noons, Daley, etc. His last fight, which was a loss to Silva, was overturned due to Silva's PED abuse (I'm assuming). As far as whether or not he can still hang..... we'll just have to wait and see. Dude also has a granite chin. *photo credit: ESPN, http://www.espn.com/mma/fighter/history/_/id/2335709/nick-diaz

I'd like to watch his little brother, Nate, fight Khabib, although I've heard it said that Nate struggles against wrestlers. Khabib's obviously a world class wrestler. I wonder what that fight would be like?

It's possible that happens but I'm not sure Nate is due a title shot. I think Kevin Lee is earmarked for the title shot given Poirier & Alvarez is set, maybe Lee gets winner of that hoping Conor comes back and if not winner of Lee vs (winner) gets Khabib?
Lee Khabib is a good money fight leaving chance for Conor vs Diaz, who knows what they're going to do though. I think the scope is make as much money possible and not what makes sense in the rankings.
