See, Nate Diaz is an animal. Maybe less animal but more specifically he is feral. The fighter, like his brother Nick, doesn’t give a damn what anyone thinks or says about him. Nate craves challenges, gritty fights, and smack talk. Nate may not be prepared for this bout, he most likely isn’t going to win it, but he is going to come to the fight with everything he has in him. I think this raw, uncivilized individual has the potential to steal a win. Now, there is always the “strikers chance” that someone can get a lucky with a perfectly timed shot, but that is not what I am thinking about. I am thinking about Diaz coming out fierce and violent and getting McGregor loose and then pulling a flying triangle. I am thinking about a mean, aggressive upset for fans! Is that really going to happen? Probably not… but I really, really hope it does. Don’t get me wrong, I am a McGregor fan, but Diaz is a veteran, rough around the edges, ugly as they come, gamer, and I believe that every dog has his day. I would love to see UFC 196 be that day for Diaz.
Rafael dos Anjos is out and Nate Diaz is in as the opponent of the equally loved and hated Connor “The Notorious” McGregor. Nate Diaz isn’t going to bring with him the same raw talent and precision as Anjos would have, but as a fan, I don’t care. I am sure many people are bummed out, and I definitely sympathize with any fighter sidelined from a training accident, but I am incredibly excited for Nate. All logic in me says McGregor is going to chew up Diaz and spit him out. Most would think this is going to be short, sweet, and an easy win for the Featherweight champ. In spite of what everyone is expecting I am itching to put my money on Nate.

Conor McGregor is the best thing that ever happened to Mixed Martial Arts and the UFC. I mean, have you ever seen a fighter who is as good both in the ring and in the microphone? Conor McGregor is the full package when it comes to entertainment. I think what separates him from the rest is his swagger. He is one of the most repelling and antagonizing people, but at the same time, you cannot help but love the things he do.

Conor McGregor is really a great player, and it’s also interesting to watch him talk trash to his opponents
