Nate Diaz is the epitome of th🐻e American dream. He's dined with Kings and Queens and slept in alleys and eaten Pork ‘n’ Beans. Well, maybe not♋ the pork because he is a Vegan, but you never pass up a chance to quote Dusty Rhodes. The point is, Diaz was an unsung antihero for a very, long time until he beat the UFC's golden child, Conor McGregor. It was as if Diaz absorbed the mystical aura around McGregor, and just like that the Stockton soldier was on E! and his kids Jiu Jitsu class attendance doubled.
After choking McGregor, Diaz joked about coppin' a yacht and was everywhere the Irish Sniper once was. Diaz even got a . However, peak Diaz has finally arrived with the 209 poster boy being featuring in primetime on CONAN. I'm sure Diaz has started a photo album that💝 includes him hanging with Jean-Claude Van Damme, Justin Bieber and now this pose with Conan O'Brien himself.
In the interview, Diaz talks to Conan about why he doesn't trust direct deposit, meeting Bieber's cre💫w during their "beef" and how he expects the worse before fights so he's never🐬 disappointed.
"I write it off from the beginning like, ‘I'm probably gonna get knocked out,'" Diaz told Conan. "Take that and accept it. T𒁏hen go inꦡ there and make it happen. When it doesn't happen, when you come out with a win, that's pretty exciting."
At one point, Conan waved his spindly legs in Diaz's face after comꦯparing their respective lengths and claimed that would make it hard to fight him. Street smart Diaz responded, saying that just was a distraction so his boy Andy Richter could punch him. You can't get one by a Diaz brother, that's for sure. However, the clear highlight was an appearance via video of McGregor who clowned on Diaz's black shirt he wears all the time and purposed that Diaz "hit the lottery" when he beat him.
It's hard to argue with that. Diaz has been in the UFC since winning the and is just now reaching maximum exposure. But none of that seems to matter to Diaz, who responded matter-of-factly with, "he got whooped,ღ"൲ and plugged the upcoming UFC 202 pay-per-view saying that the truth would come out.
