Colby's Nick Diaz tribute

[johny ringo]

I dont think it was disrespectful. Just cold hard facts. Maybe he could’ve chose better words in some instances but nothing to harsh or way off the truth.

Colby goes out of character when talking about Nick, does not talk shit about Nick Diaz.

Says he has a good legacy and how he does not want to see him get hurt etc.Only 1:46 seconds no cliff needded.

It's nice seeing him like this praising other fighters.

Lol...you call that a tribute? I do like what he had to say. I think its pretty much spot on, but I wouldn't consider this praise or a tribute. There was a tiny bit of praise in there I guess though. If Nick sees it, I feel pretty sure it'll piss him off...haha.

Does anyone remember Nick saying the matchup was dumb and that it was a nobrainer that he should have been matched with Kamaru? I'm a Nick fan but he might have jumped the shark with that level of craziness.

I think Werdum may be one of the craziest guys ever in the UFC. Colby should've left that guy alone.

A funny quote by Ali Abdelaziz after this happened trying to make light of Werdum's actions, "The plastic bag landed on his shoulder, and there was a boomerang in it,".

Not slamming a fellow fighter isn't singing his praises either. Colby is a POS.

He isn't wrong minus the average career part.

Why bother with the fake title? People would have clicked anyway.

 

[Pequeño Corey]

Not a tribute, but he’s not shitting on Nick, either. He’s just stating what we all know. Nick is done, and fought like a guy who’s not taking the sport seriously anymore.

Prime Nick Diaz beats prime Covington. Diaz wasn’t average.

Dad bod Diaz is born

Colby is not going to be "nice" to anyone, especially publicly. If he stops saying things that morons think make other people mad, the minute fanbase he's exhaustively built up would collapse instantly. They're mostly in it for the corny antagonism

Nick Diaz career is legendary and at his prime was a better fighter than Nate ever was. Nicks also the real street one.

Nates always just played up being from streets for attention. Nick actually sheltered Nate from alot of it growing up

I love nick. But as a minor counterpoint (not sure if it even is), he never was a world beater. He was damn near always in good fights. But his win streak was, mostly, against sub par competition.

Typical Colby , playing his bad boy character and talking shit , I think he was a little more reserved in his criticism this time because the Diaz brothers seem loco enough to start something if they cross paths.
I understand what Colby is going and that this shtick has probably made him a lot of money , but he needs some new material

@Paynebringer
What do you think about Colby doing stuff like this

I don't think about that guy at all, I don't know if he remained even and collected like that throughout the whole interview or if at some point he went into Chaos Colby but he should try to be more in that mode, that real, more often...

 

[Luthien]

He should try to be more in that mode, that real, more often...

OK

I have no idea why mma fans continously talk in absolutes .
Dude the Guy is a fucking beast could give a fuck less what he talks about

Nick was better than ‘good’. Cub Swanson was ‘good’.
