On Conor: "I was at his house last night... He wants to fight again as soon as possible.He wants to jump back in there and he wants to fight again. We're workin' on who the next opponent will be."

On Nate: "Listen, anybody who knows the Diaz brothers - I will tell you this... Nate Diaz made a lot of money on Saturday night. He made a lot of money. He made millions of dollars. So, we'll see what happens. I might never see Nate Diaz ever again."

This is the stark contrast between a man who loves to step in a cage and fight, lives and breathes the contest, determined to compete against and beat the best in the world, and a man whose entire goal in fighting was to earn enough money so that he would never have to fight again.

As fellow MMA fans, which man do you respect more?

 
Impossible to not respect both.
 
That would be great for Nate.
Set for life and never has to deal with Dana again.
 
If Nate Diaz cashes out, good for him.
 
How much money did he make before? Let him have his moment ffs.

Oh, Conor quote in sig. I see. Go cry somewhere else.
 
After that fight how can you not respect them. That was a battle. And it was entertaining as hell. Nate should be offered a big fight next. And based on how Conor carried himself I would expect nothing less than him wanting to defend his belt at 200
 
Dana thinks Conor is living to fight? Dumbass. Conor is all about money nonstop talk about it yet Nate is a natural born fighter. Smh
 
It would suck to not see him fight again. But sometimes you have to do what's best for you. I wouldn't blame him.
 
Dana said that about nick too but the bottom line is the Diaz brothers are fighters,its what they do,and they will allways be needed,and they will take the fights that have big money attached. Until the end of time.
 
Nate obviously gets to choose his next opponent now. I would just choose Conor rematch and cash out twice as fat :D
 
Call me when Conor has 22 UFC fights under his belt like Nate does.
 
Meh. The greatest prize fighter of all time said he only fought for money and considered boxing nothing more than a job. They all fight for money, first and foremost. Not to take Dana's narrative seriously as we really shouldn't believe a thing he says, but if Nate was paid enough that he doesn't feel the need to ever fight again, good for him.
 
Nate obviously gets to choose his next opponent now. I would just choose Conor rematch and cash out twice as fat :D

It wont happen now. You keep a fight like that on the backburner for later.
 
I wouldn't blame Nate if this was the case, after all the lies Dana told about him in the build up to the fight.
