Is Nate as popular now as Nick ever was ?

[AceCooch]

GSP dominated Nick.

True, but not as badly as Bendo beat Nate, that fight was pathetic

Not only do I think Nate is more popular

But I even think Nate has a better resume than Nick diaz

And I am serious.

Fucking Lol.

Prime Gomi, BJ, Daley, and Lawler? Lol

Nick will probably always be more popular. Nate has come into his own with popularity at this point in his career but Nick can still just come back one day, get a huge fight and payday and it doesn't matter when he last fought. If Connor would have moved on and Nate didn't take a fight for a year it would all pass over.

Nick can still sell a fight with pov headliner fight with GSP any day this week and it would do over a million buys

Nate isn't in that situation

Nick is the better fighter imo. Stiffer and bigger competition

Great breakdown

 

[Jopo]

I guess it's pretty even at this point with Nick given a slight edge in popularity would be my guess.

 

[graciefighterz]

Its hard to say who is "better". they are both great in their own right and have had great careers.

As far as popularity, yes I would say Nate has surpassed his brother. Its the benefit of beating the biggest draw in the sports history and then being gifted another fight against him.

Fucking Lol.

Lawler wasn't in his prime (though neither was Nick)

Daley was fringe top 10

Penn was a good win imo. But one can argue he lost twice after and hasn't looked the same since.

Gomi: It was a good win.
