"I swear to God, the UFC thinks it was an accident or something," Diaz, 30, told ESPN.com. "They think it was an accident, and now they're saying, 'Let's get Nate back in there and take him out before he gets any bigger.'
"I don't think so. I've fought everyone in the UFC, and they better give me some m-----f------ compliments if I win this fight."
"Since that last fight, have you heard any praise for me from Dana or the UFC? None at all," Diaz told ESPN.com. "How much praise has that m-----f----- got? I've never lost a fight and not wanted to fight the guy 10 minutes later. The UFC is pumping him up again, saying he wants to redeem himself and giving him all this credit for it. It's like, dude, I've been obsessed with every fight I've ever lost. This is a gift for him to get it right away.
"He's saying he's obsessed? Welcome to my life, m-----f-----. That's the game, and I've never gotten my losses back."
Two things he said got me. "They better give me some mother fucking compliments" makes me idiot giggle. Truer words may never have been so ridiculous sounding.
But I'm ride or die with Nathan Diaz for keeping it real and when he says about Conors obsession with the loss, "Welcome to my life, mother fucker" BOOM went the dynamite.
Conor thinks he came game plan Nate. Everyone knows the Diaz's Kryptonite.....leg kicks and movement. But he stopped with the leg kicks because nate was attacking that front knee with kicks. A new weapon for Nate borne out of necessity during the fight.....l don't think I have ever seen so many kicks to the knee in 2rounds from both fighters.
I really can't work out why they don't throw more weight behind Nate, i love the fact he's now where he deserves to be. Much prefer listening to Nate then Nick, Nick's so awkward
The reason for the rematch is so transparent, dana pretending it's about conors determination and drive is embarrassing. Also didn't nate get his W back from maynard?
"They think it was an accident, and now they're saying, 'Let's get Nate back in there and take him out before he gets any bigger.'
Come on Nate... Here's the Diaz victim mentality again. They CHOSE you over many others (Khabib, BJ, Pettis, Tony, etc...) for a huge main event. They are putting you in the main event of UFC 200, possibly the biggest card ever. You've fought on several FOX main events. That's not a sign of 'let's not allow him to get any bigger.'
Of course they want Conor to win. He's their golden boy right now and the one bringing in the PPV's. But Nate is being given more opportunity than 99.99% of anyone on the UFC's roster.
And that do not touch conor meme is hilarious...ha.

Funny that you mention 'victim mentality' when you'd blame your own mother for Jon Jones's infractions before you'd hold him in any way accountable.

First paragraph is most definitely gold. Gotta love the Nate.

I agree with Nate. According to reports, the UFC were entertaining the idea of Conor vs Robbie at UC 170 at UFC 200 and unfortunately Nate spoiled those plans. This reminds me of when Holly defeated Ronda, I could be wrong and please correct me if I am, I do not recall much praise from Dana either because Holly spoiled the rumored Rousey vs Cyborg at UFC 200 plans.

Dude, what in the actual fuck are you talking about?
Conor chose Nate the first time, Conor demanded Nate the second time. All the UFC has done is talk about how badass Conor is and how obsessed he'll be. Not the same treatment at all towards the Diaz's. Nate isn't complaining of a single thing you mentioned.
