Nate turned down main eventing 230 prior to poirier injury

The Diaz brothers, while awesome to watch fight years ago, have become nothing more than has-been divas.

He doesn't bro. When Nate signs a contract, he shows up. He isn't a bitch, he just wants what he deserves.

What does nate deserve exactly? You think that guy deserves a title shot?

Nate is his own worst enemy. He had a way better chance of winning that fight over 5 rounds.

nate doesn't care about belts, he wants cash

Nate hasn't fought in a long time.

Do the casuals even remember him?

 

[Soul On Ice]

Non title fight

So the UFC probably offered no pay rise (or very little) and wanted 2 extra rounds out of Nate
Easy pass.

Why are all MMA outlets reporting that Poirer pulled out with an injury then??

Both happened
Nate turned down going to 5 rds & after that the injury
