Just yesterday and the day of his media scrum and during the world tour.. he still kept saying he only lost to Nate because Nate was 200lbs and that it was unfair to fight someone so much bigger
I heard him say Diaz was 200lbs yesterday, but I don't recall him saying that was why he lost and it being unfair to fight someone bigger - unless you saw something I didn't. Where could I find the other comments?
Diaz was training at Ricky Funez's gym before 202 and he was the one who mentioned he was close to 200lbs:
And when he was asked on the conference call if he was walking around the 200lbs mark he said yes.
then comes right back and says he will be well north of 170lbs fight night against Floyd and that Floyd's a easy fight since he's the smaller man
Okay. I'm not sure what your point is because as of now I never heard Conor say it was unfair to fight someone much bigger.
And who was the one who leaked the rumour that the fight was happening, the weight class, the type of gloves and the make of them. Then reports come out he has tax issues from 2005. Hmm.
Nate walks around at 179..
Maybe in the past, but he did not look 179lbs before the 2nd fight. Look at the picture of him, Diaz sr, Liddel and Shields. He looks bigger than sr and Shields. He also said he was 173lbs on fight night. Seriously?
The weight issue was between Conor and Diaz. I enjoyed both fights, so I don't really care about it. But if you're going to call one a liar, at least point out the other one's discrepancies. I will say this, though, good luck to Diaz getting back down to 155. The last time he had to get down to that weight, he looked sucked in at the media day.
And what else is funny is he talked about Conor beating midgets, while Diaz was fighting smaller guys at 155. He tried out 170 before but he's simply not strong enough.
Says he's never lost to a smaller man or a boxer.. both lies. One loss was to a guy who fought at 125 and the other loss prior to the UFC was a 38 sec 1st round sub loss to a undefeated pro boxer at the time.
Correct on the 1st part, incorrect on the 2nd one.
I could come up with a lot more..
Fire away.
