thewash - Notice how Connor got a bit nervous when he suddenly didn't know where Nate was...or am I reaching here?
Dude here's something for you to think about. Nobody on Earth is afraid of Nate Diaz. He is a great mma fighter but he is not fearsome in any way shape or form. He doesn't scare McGregor. McGregor GAVE him the fight.
So I finally watched the video. Two things immediately came to mind.
1) Diaz is fucking hilarious. Intellectually, he is not bright at all, from a book smarts perspective (nothing new here). But he owns it. He has no pretenses. He doesn't understand finance shit, so fuck you.
2) Conor, while modestly more intelligent than Nate, was trying to fake it as much as possible. His answers during the latter part of the interview were pretty weak.
Either way, I don't understand why they were on CNN. You knew the commentary wasn't going to be the most stimulating, and their demographic is definitely not align with UFC's.
Don't care though, both bring it when they are inside the octagon, and that's good enough for me!

And from a a marketing perspective, going outside your typical channels CAN bring in more viewers. What had the UFC to lose here? Nothing. It was entertaining in its own weird way ha ha. Different angle for sure.
