He actually has shown the ability to check kicks, he did it against Johnson in the second round which turned the fight around and he injured Pettis by checking kicks. I don't know why he doesn't do it all the time.

EDIT: by saying I don't know why he doesn't do it all the time, I don't know mean why doesn't he check every kick anyone throws but why does he have some fights where he just seems to intentionally allow easy to defend leg kicks to land with no attempt at defense.

Nate just doesn’t give a shit:D
 
Nate would get absolutely demolished. It would not be pretty. His best bet is to fight Jake Paul for a big pay day, then retire. Or maybe he could goad Conor into having their trilogy as a boxing fight or something after that idk. But going to Glory is an awful idea.

yeah maybe that's it :D

It does seem weird that some fights he shows the ability to check kicks really well and in others he seems to have no idea to defend against them. If he were eating leg kicks to try to land a counter straight that would be one thing but that is not typically the case.

Would be hilarious if Nate signed with them and got his ass kicked the very first match.

He will get his ass kicked in the very first match anywhere, Jake Paul most likely does it too, but it wouldnt be so bad, i hope, and it would pay very well, every other sport wont be as lucrative and against prime fighters it wouldnt look good for him.

That would take a while, Conor is tied with the UFC for who knows how long.

PS: I know he says a lot of dumb shit himself doesnt believe, but he called that a non trilogy fight, it would be a 1 he said iirc, at the post fight press conference, so if he fights Conor as a trilogy its MMA.

Glory can't afford him. They pay most of their champs well under 6 figures. Only a handful of guys like Hari make any money

Yah, bruh....I mean, I kind of hear you.... I mean he kinda of has adapted, but you would figure that if he knows that is the game plan for every fighter he faces that he would be better. It is flat out bizarre.

I think he gets his ass beat everywhere, including Jake Paul.

That could be the case, but remember that Jake struggled against Woodley.
Woodley might be more powerful than Nate, but Nate is a better boxer for sure
 
Both Diaz brothers hate being kicked. Straight boxing or the Paul thing. Or maybe just retire and sell and smoke marijuana
