Diaz may be taller than Conor, but that picture shows just how much more mass Conor has than Nate. Nate is a skinny guy with next to no muscle mass. He’s a lw who won the ultimate fighter as a skinny lw. You can spin it however you want, but the fight was simply at lw with no weight cut.
Winning by a close split decision is not Whooping someone. Especially, when you got choked out by that person in savage fashion in your first fight. Hence, why you guys have to play the narrative that Nate is a much larger man.
