We have been rooting on Nate Diaz since he choked out that a hole Conner M. That said I am very worried about Nate's future. He takes a ton of head shots every fight and his confidence and bravado carry him forward. I don't see a 'bright' future for him in 5-10+ years. He is not educated and the folks around him are going for the bank $$ at his expense. Yep I get it...the fighters life, banking now while you can. Much love to Nate, and so many others active/retired in the fighting sports. I hope Nate gets another 1 or 2 big payouts for his family to be secure years from now.
I wish more fighters could hook up with decent promoters who see the short term and plan for the long. Our favorite is Urijah Faber, met him in Santa Barbara, such a great guy, walked away and has his own gym/business to carry him forward.
