Nate submitting Connor is one of my all time favorite moments in sports history. Good assessment. He's the Ultimate Fighter
-
I would love to see a how good was Jose Aldo after his recent retirement
-
I think he would’ve won more fights had he utilize the rest of his game. But he wanted to fight his way and I can respect that.
-
finally the old format is back
-
He was the kind of guy that even if you can defeat him, he’ll put you through a very long night of pain and discomfort.
-
Win or lose.... He was entertaining as hell
-
Nate Diaz has shown us that he is an excellent martial artist and is deadly in pretty much all of his fights. Not unbeatable by the elite but definitely up there with them.
-
Nate’s boxing wasn’t designed for knockouts or for dealing HUGE amounts of damage, but to harass his opponents into his submissions.
-
Nick & Nate are Warriors true Gladiators! Mad respect for them both.
-
Definitely my favorite fighter of all time. Nate was just so entertaining win, lose, or draw. One of the greatest to never get the strap.
-
The best thing about Nate was the fact that he didn’t care about belts, he didn’t care about points, or politics in the fight game or any of that shit. He just wanted to fight and get paid. Even though he could’ve probably won a title had he taken most of his fights more seriously and actually utilized his world-class level jiu jitsu instead of just going toe to toe with everybody. I’d still much rather have him put on a helluva fight than just submit everybody on the roster though.
-
Could you do videos on “how good was Donald Cerrone actually” & “How good was José Aldo actually”
-
Insane how Nate Diaz became a bigger star than Nick Diaz.
-
It is wild how he was Nick's brother at one time. Nick Diaz was so popular. Then his brother became the popular. Doesn't usually happen like that
-
Despite not being the UFC champion, Nate Diaz wins a fight to the death against anybody every time. Wardiaz.
-
The only thing that held Nate and even Nick back fighting wise was the fact that they never made mid fight adjustments. The game plan never changed. Move forward with 1,2 and 1,2,3 combos. If their opponents were reading that and picking it they just kept doing the same thing 1,2,3. The josh Thompson and Masvidal fights are perfect examples
-
Nate is why I became a fan. I watched a bit of UFC but seeing him on TUF drew me in. The way he fights. The way he is so real and unapologetic. Awesome.
-
Thank Christ been waiting 5 months for a how good was video
-
Nate was one of those dudes who didn’t care win or lose. He didn’t like Dana and the ufc and all they stood for he just liked fighting and talking smack. He never wanted the belt. Believe Dana controlled a lot of the strings and well Nate just wanted to fight the best win or lose. Eventually I think it became a money thing and Nate finally started to realize how much he didn’t like dana and the ufc. If that all makes sense
-
Love seeing a new "How GOOD" video! Also, I really like that you integrated dates, win-loss numbers, and streak counts. These career retrospectives just keep getting better and better. Solid work, Kiiyon
