yes, yes, and yes!
Ok but that 145er was max Holloway it’s not like he took a top 10 145er moving up. At the time it was a guy a lot of us could have seen beating some of aldos ridiculous FW records. I think most people would say that at the time max was the harder fight over Nate, and if you ask my opinion, I don’t think nates in the same discussion difficulty wise. Sure max might not have looked amazing, but to pretend Dustin had nothing to do with that is silly.You had your chance and chickened out. You chose a 145'er instead And went the distance with him.
Don’t you know if Nate and Nick never lost those fights they lost they would have wonWtf? No Masvidal rematch? Most agree that Nate would have finished him in the 5th.
Thats nice and all but the fact remains, Dustin could have had this fight already but pulled out. And then talked shit from his hospital bed while Nate was about to headline Madison Square Garden.Ok but that 145er was max Holloway it’s not like he took a top 10 145er moving up.

That was for a belt interim, but still, and he won...the same 145 guy was at one point scheduled to fight Khabib for the LW belt and was the 145 champion at the time, it wasnt such bad move imho, now Nate fight can happen, they were not fighting for anything back then, it would be the same now, most likely not a PPV now that Nate has lost some steam, but it can be a good fight night main event.You had your chance and chickened out.

That 145er also happens to be a former world champ. Wasn't max a 2 to 1 favorite? Besides there's really absolutely nothing wrong with this fight... On paper at least. Both guys need a win. Beating the dogshit out if diaz would give Dustin all the confidence he needs to move on. Diaz winning would also be a nice feather in his cap...let them. Or alternatively book diaz vs perry. Those two deserve each other.You had your chance and chickened out. You chose a 145'er instead And went the distance with him.
It's obvious that Dustin just wants money fights right now. All the power to him I guess.
Neither guys getting a TS. Just “fun” fights from here on out, IMO.meaningful fight
