Quote of the Day: Nate Diaz Talks Josh Neer

"Josh Neer is a less technical person, but with that [and] getting into the UFC, he’s had a bunch of tough fights. He’s not a guy to come out and quit. He’s a guy to go out there and go hard the whole time because he’s had it rough the whole time. He’s had to fight these technical guys his whole career. With all these fights he’s had, he’s learning the technical points. It’s definitely a tough fight, but I train with tough guys all the time.
If he doesn’t [finish], it’s just gonna get worse off on him. If I had my way, I would not have time on these fights or make more rounds. Sometimes I’m a slow starter, but that’s what helped me get through [Pellegrino in April]. I had to wake my ass up."

Basically saying....
So Nate is saying that Josh is not as technical a fighter as he is so he’d better knock Nate out quick because the longer it takes the more of an advantage Nate gains? I am still taking Nate to win this fight by submission but he sure is writing the story line for Neer to knock his a$$ out.

Nate is going to get KTFO soon. I’m just not sure Neer is the guy to do it. One can only hope though…

He might want to figure out how to punch at some point in his career. Not many fighters are able to make it using only a submission game. How does one come up “street” in Stockton and only be able to submit someone?

Haha.. if you watch every Nate Diaz Pre-Fight interview, he always says “______ isn’t as technical.”
Haha.. if you watch every Nate Diaz Pre-Fight interview, he always says “______ isn’t as technical.”I love Nate. He’s all about the technical side of fighting. Gotta respect that.

If Nate doesn’t already have a nickname, it should be “The Technician”.

There is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of guilt.
