This is why we love Nate...

"It's not how hard you hit, but how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward"



We've been inundated with an image that is iconic. Symbolizing the courageous, relentlessness, and the fighting spirit to the point of it being stoic. As a culture, we crave this. Nate encompasses these traits. Team that with the blue-collar pothead image, he's relatable. This, as a "schtick" or image, is sustainable in a way that one and done flash in the pan KO artists can not compete with over the long term. They're good for "juice 'em while you can".

Dig?

We? Nate was never my friend.

theyre both diva crybabies who have never been able to take a loss like a man, you guys think throwing up your hands saying “ what “ or giving the finger wins a fight, or make retarded excuses about how if the fight was 20 rounds theyd win.

them and their fans are embarrassing.

I'll give you that their inability to take a loss can be cringe. They definitely exhibit character flaws. No doubt. But there's so much more to it than just that. It's sad that you get so hung up on the areas where they can improve. But can't see where they excel.

Mario Yamasaki would have let that fight keep going, Josh would have punched himself out and got destroyed by Diaz in the third!
Mike Beltran was just scared of the beating Diaz would have put to him

So being a punching bag is relatable?

Only if you make instant excuses at the presser.

He was still defending. There's a case to be made there.
