But you know that Nick was bullied hard, he did it have a dad that was there for him or a big brother. Touching because we all know Nick was protecting Nate from the Real world which Nick was battling

@@jaythewineoisseur346 true, but to be fair the true victim is the kid who thought picking on nick diaz would end well for him. probably not the person you want to piss off.

I hope the like count pauses here. 209 life

Ariel: You ever been bullied? Nate: Hell naw, I have a big brother. That shit was real

Dam when nate said those words it made me feel some type of way. I'm a big brother myself and I never knew how much my little brother looks up to me. Definitely gonna continue to grow as a man and keep getting better.

Facts that's why robbie is one of my fav fighters ever

It’s also sad cuz who knows if Robbie is good. These guys get paid dogshit money and Robbie was making a teachers salary to put on one of the best performances ever against rory but it took a big piece from him

Because the Diaz and Lawler are made of the same cloth. Robbie came in the UFC at 18 and hes still fighting. Probably because thats what he do. So they probably understand each other on an other level.

And when he asked that you can hear nick say no I’m not. Damn it’s so messed up how the ufc and Dana took advantage of these guys and never even paid them a legitimate amount. Nick was a more real Conor mcgregor way before Conor was around. They didn’t want someone from the hood to be the face of the ufc and Nick was just to real. They kept him down and ruined his prime because of thc. When the man he fought was on steroids and got not even a year

@@noicemate9111 Dana is an utter Cnut, I’ll be having jelly and once cream when he dies, can’t come too soon

It’s not the first time UFC is doing them dirty

Dana White is mafia.

I never watch U.F.C it’s nothing like the old days. Now it’s screw the fighters unless they kiss butt.

The didnt turned their back.... they never been on their side guys. They didn't wanted a real ones becoming Champion.

Ha ha, you fell for the story.

I can't believe it man.. I never saw or heard that before

Robbie is such a great guy

In the full video he asks Nick if they're paying him enough for the fight. Humanity at it finest

It was beautiful to see that shit go full circle 😔

When was this?

True

True before it felt like nate defying the odds, watching back after this it felt like i was watching him stand up to his bully

When I first saw the Nate vs Conor 2 fight I thought Nate won... I watched it back recently and still feel Nate won that as well

@@jasonv6319 I can see why you think that but really conor and mates stories are not that different. Stockton is hard place to grow up but the same for conor in Crumlin Dublin its known as one of the worst parts of Ireland. He was relentlessly buried growing up its why he got into fighting. I don't see Connor as the bully he just decided he would be the hammer and not the nail its the same as nate.

@@LewReviews I'm from tallaght Dublin, this part of the city is fucking rough, in my old neighborhood just last week a youngfella stabbed and killed his two sisters and brother who were kids. My ma now lives in another spot around the corner where a man a few months ago was shot 3 times while walking with his 4 month old son in a pram. I've seen some bad things and had some bad things done to me and my friends. Its inevitable that some nasty shit happens to you or someone close at some point I think. I say all that just to emphasize that Connor really had come from a fucking hard place, I actually train in the old gym by coincidence, I can only imagine back in the day, the desperation of wanting it and being one of the very few Irish people trying against all odds to get into the UFC and have an impact, almost nobody here would have been in his corner to support his dreams it wouldn't have even been on anybody's radar as a possibility, most would probably just laugh at him. Watching his rise trough the UFC was insane and I got on fairly early and it was a part of the reason I decided a few years ago to start training that instead of other sports. I love the Diaz brothers too and I can imagine the suffering they went through in Stockton must have been fucking treacherous. I hate this "Diaz brothers are stupid bleeders" or "mctapper is a bitch" shit. All 3 of them are animals who climbed to the top and ended up pitted against one another. Even if you dont like a fighter you should have respect for all people who will get in a cage against another human to try and break eachother apart. Im sick of the casual fan bullshit where the pre fight press conference is where they decide if they like someone or not, thats all a show.

Man fuck. I feel u on that. The parts where he was worried about Nate hanging with the wrong crowd made me think of my own brother. Nicks heart was too big Fr Fr

God bless you bro, I lost my little brother 10 years ago. Still think of him every day.

As an older sibling i can tell you we don't want or need you to make us proud we just want you to be good in life as well as in your head & heart. Truly sorry you lost your main 1 my heart goes out to you, i, from 11yo, raised my baby sis (34 lol) & we're so close. I can't imagine losin her so soon, you're clearly a very strong person mentally as well emotionally cus you wouldn't be here otherwise so pls believe me when i say how very proud your brother is. Take care & i hope at the time of readin you're doin well.

You can see how heavy it weighs on his heart, it's hard to watch.

Being the oldest child can be hard.

I feel with Nick. That sense of duty and responsibility he has for Nate is truly one of a kind especially when they’re in this line of work. Their mindset are complete polar opposite when it comes to fighting in the UFC & its so interesting that Nick still treats Nate like he’s still 12 years old in Highschool protecting him from all the bullies.

And I feel Nate is doing what he does to make sure in the end it’s all worth it for both of them .

It's so hard to watch, and resonates as strongly as it does, because when it's real you'll FEEL it

Yea. Robbie is a beast with a great heart bro

They both have respect for each other. Nothing is personal just business

Both true warriors

That's the part that hit me hard. He looked out of it. Physically and mentally. He's so damn tough and the fact he didn't wanna get up said it all, he's tired. He's fought all his life. Man I love the Diaz brother that part made me really sad :( hope Nick is doing well.

@@that1kidjr He's tired and done with it sure... But he doesn't give up; he takes it like a man and gets what he needs to do done. Hard man, bro. Hard man with a gentle soul.

@@dopedrums lol

Lathrope?

Fr? I'm close too. Before we moved to Fresno we used to live in Sacramento. I was born in San Diego like my brothers though. So even though we didn't live in Stockton it was always just a 1-3 hour drive away depending on where we lived. Plus, there is a fair amount of Hmong people in Stockton too I think so it's even cooler Nick and nate diaz are from Stockton! They are so cool

That’s why they in my top 5 favorite fighters. They are so real and I can relate to them as other can.

@@USCaiden 🙌

Me too brother I was never a big Diaz brother's fan until I started to understand the torment and success at the same time. NICK is a great person and the UFC made him out to be a bully and a bad guy I love this sport with everything inside me but I'm starting to hate the company if that makes sense and I'm a proud man but this made me cry like a new born baby but DAMM am I glad I watched it because it was beautifully made

Best fucking comment as it's a BIG FUCKING FACT.. RESPECT

There ya go 👌

When a big celebrity gets PTSD and trauma they talk about it and make a whole PR about it. but sadly this sport and the the place they grew up at is so ruthless, these bros had to be ruthless. Its actually sad how misunderstood they are.

Thanks for sharing Eddie - sorry for your loss

Lp

I couldn't agree with you more about Nate and Nick and the media's portrayals. I've met them over a dozen times running into them when I lived in Tracy/Modesto area. My favorite instance when I ran into Nate at BJ's in Stockton. My Aunt and I were there eating dinner right after a Stockton thunder game. I saw Nate with a bunch of people eating I waited for him to finish before I walked over and asked him if we could take a picture with him. He asked me where we were sitting I showed him he walked right over and sat down with us and took the picture and after that he spent about 10 minutes with us talking about random stuff but his engagement the whole time was so cool.

I have always, always loved them both... long before Nate/Conor 1. People used to talk so much sh!t and it used to drive me fkn nuts. I’m so glad they now get the love and respect they have always deserved

I clocked that right away too. My brother and I's relationship went so south in the last few years to not exchanging a word for a few months already. As a big brother, it's beautiful to see their connection.

❤️

@@shonthebonbon that's sad bro

Fuck Dana for that fr

Willing to bet there will be a diaz bros movie someday but will prob be something our grandkids will enjoy and wonder what it was like to watch them fight

Facts bro

I'm thinking k of writing it myself and could direct it how it needs to be done!! 🙂

Did Ferguson take the bout on short notice? Or was he on the card already. Missed most of the lead up because of work

Sorry for the dumb question

@@Clemsoncrawler362 I don't think he was already on the card. I believe he took it on short notice

@@Clemsoncrawler362 I guess you could call it short notice because the fights all got switched around

@@Clemsoncrawler362 just look up khamzat ruins card for full story

They were real to themselves didn't bow down to Dana so he fucked them over while he sucked all the cash out

It’s funny to cry about guys getting a title shot after beating Nate…maybe if Nate won those fights he’d have less to cry about ???

God bless you man im glad your at peace bro

I’m glad you took the time to type that out and I hope it helped you and it helps others that can relate to your struggles. This video was much heavier than I expected and then I read you comment. Fucking onion ninjas trying their hardest to get in here.

Beautifully expressed sir. That self reflection is a wonderful thing. That was great to read

That's awesome bro. I have a story just like yours only different. But share the same love for combat sports and the Diaz Brothers. It's great to see Nate shine. Him and Nick are both something special. For sure.

I feel you brother I've faced the same shit...I think that's why we live and die by their side...I cant imagine my life without them...the 209 mentality got me through some tough times. Diaz For Life.

It truly is. I have a younger brother, and we came from a broken household, so the Diaz story really hits home.

They give a lesson in brotherhood

Trueee. I have 2 younger brother's too. There's nothing I would not do for them.

I wish my brother cared even a little bit about me... My brother is the most self centered tool in the world. Now, I just don't give AF.. I'll be something without him.

ufc did get the most of having them...but for the ufc not for the diaz.

@@zboub7025 I think the Diaz brothers could be 10x bigger if talking in popularity terms had the UFC and the people who run it, ie Dana, Fertitas and whoever runs the show now after buying the UFC understood what they were truly like. I highly doubt that Dana is as close to the Diaz brothers as he is to McGregor or Rousey or his other show ponys. i think if youre an MMA fan, you will never miss a Diaz fight, sure, they dont cross over to the mainstream like McGregor who attracts absolute cunts but shit, being a down ass fighter and putting on great fights has to mean something right? I do however think that the Diaz Brothers arent really interested in having 20m IG followers or being super famous, i guess what I wish is that the UFC made an effort to show us the real Diaz brothers instead of having this image of them being nothing but weed smoking dudes who talk shit and miss press conferences. Youre right though, the UFC made a shit tonne of money off of them so theyre happy

UFC made the most of them by far, they are easily the greatest gate keepers in UFC history

Only way we can make ip for that is to have sons and be a good father to them, and guide our eldest sons to be that to our youngest sons.

As that "little brother" who still isn't close to his big brother, I assure you man you've taught him far more than you or him ever realize. I'm only as mentally strong as I am because of my brothers influence. Just 2 "street kids" from Toledo ohio. We might fight each other (and have on 4 occasions) but bet nobody touches him without me n vice versa. You may feel you shoulda done more as a big brother, but I bet if you asked him he'd say you did just fine. Big brothers always get the praise, little brothers get the pure toughness. You helped create a warrior by being a warrior yourself. Us little brothers just watched n learned before we ran with the ball ourselves. Stay up.

Revelation 12:11 “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony” I was guided to church May 15th 2016, God led me there, and had it all planned. Two elders sat at the back, I was by the back door able to make my escape if necessary. Never knew God, never read the Bible, never heard the clear Gospel till this Sunday evening prayer night. I was lead to All Nations that morning by the Lord. He guided me at 27 years old to take a leap of faith and granted me the gift of saving faith that Sunday evening when I humbly prayed with 3 elders and whole-heartedly accepted Christ into my life. The flood came down as unexplainable as it can be, the precious blood of Christ cleansing me. Amazing the guilt, the shame, the regret the pain all washed away in His precious blood.

Plotting against me, the father of lies Delighted in my sorrow, taking pleasure in my cries Voices on the attack, keeping me in a hole Heartache and agony inside, so I chose to numb my soul Was blinded by darkness, was deceived; but how? Was not capable to see then, what is so clear to see now Was directed towards isolation, told I was all alone Implying "you are your own master", "you can do it on your own" Somewhere within, even certain it was a lie Reaching down again, giving it another try But my God is faithful, even when I am not He was always there, me He never forgot Walking through the darkness, a light starts to shine With a voice calling out, son you are mine! Softening a hardened heart, freeing an imprisoned soul Erasing the shame the guilt, pulling me from the hole By giving up control, proclaiming Jesus as Lord and Savior! He took away those voices, negative thoughts and behavior Bought by the blood of Christ, in full He paid my debt Something to be grateful for, something to never forget Lost and searching my whole life, not knowing what for I now know Lord Jesus, He opens up the door Through this door, lays a straight and narrow path Salvation is mine! Trust in God; peace at last! For He is "the way, the truth and the life" In heaven with the Father, seated at the right Wrapped in His robe of righteousness, embraced in perfect love Unconditional love like this, truly comes from above Out of prison came my soul, as miraculous as it can be As His word states: “And you shall know the truth, And the truth shall make you free."
