Media Max Kellerman destroys Dana White's Nate-Khamzat argument

egk said:
Nate's never beaten a quality WW in his career. He was a good LW who got steamrolled by Bendo in his lone title shot. Now they want him to fight a MW who's cutting a lot of weight to make WW? Nate has done nothing as a WW to deserve any of the contenders.

And Dana knows this better than anyone, that's why he's a piece of shit and always will be.
 
Max Kellerman is the same piece of shit that used to insult the sport of MMA every chance he got. He doesn’t know sh*t. He used to say that mma fighters were talentless, thugs, no skill, etc. Us as a community need to rid these scumbag johnny-come-lately’s. Some of us don’t forget.

Is anyone stupid enough to actually believe Dana's reasons for the fight? they only want Nate to turn it down so they can bench him until Conor recovers, Nate is doing exactly what Dana wants, if this wasn't his last contract fight or if he was talking about resigning and finished up his career in the UFC, they would had made the Luque or Tony fight weeks ago.

Yup, it's so damn aggravating knowing this is what they're trying to do and passing it off as something else. Dana saying everyone wants to see Diaz fight the wolf is horse shit. No one wants that.

The way he says "Bee Jay Jay" is annoying. No one calls it that they just say Jiu Jitsu like any normal person would.
 
Nate has 1 win in the last 5 years... Same as Conor... And somehow those two fools can sell fights like no one else to the casual fans... so let them fight one more time and make good money.

Dana shouldn't damage Nate's "tough guy image" because quite honestly that's what makes him a draw.

Khamzat also should have a real test, not this bullshit.

Dana White: ''I just had an interview the other day, where the kid was coming after me saying that I am throwing Nate Diaz to the wolves, if I have him fight Khamzat Chimaev. He wanted to fight Usman!! That's throwing you to the wolves!! Khamzat Chimaev has all these high expectations of what could possibly achieve right? Usman has achieved them. Nate wanted to fight Kamaru Usman, but you don't want to fight Khamzat Chimaev?''

Max Kellerman: ''Well I mean it's always a risk reward thing, right, like the reward you get not just monetarily, but in terms of credit for beating Usman, when Chimaev you are also taking a huge risk''

Then Dana continues to repeating the same sentence after his argument getting destroyed by Kellerman. :D

If MMA media had more people like Kellerman, then the things could have been a lot different in terms of arranging the fair fights, the guy knows how to handle Dana White's arguments.

Comparing Usman-Khamzat thing for Nate;

-That's low risk high reward thing with Usman,

-With Khamzat it's high risk and low reward,

Dana White pretends like he doesn't understand this simple thing.

Almost the same with people are ducking Islam, but at the same time wanting to fight Khabib, of course only after Khabib won the belt.

Nate was also ducking Khabib in the past,

But after Khabib won the belt, Nate was ok with fighting Khabib and was ok with getting smashed for 5 rounds by Khabib, but not before.

It's related to high risk low reward, of course ducking is ducking still, but when they become champion, everything becomes different, as Kellerman said it's low risk high reward once they get their belt.

I am a Diaz fan, and I can admit this is ridiculous, with no upside for Diaz. I am neutral on Chimaev and I think he takes Diaz down in the first and GnP's or submits him in a 1st round finish. It won't sell a lot of PPV's or get a lot of ratings, and Diaz gains NOTHING by winning that fight. On the other hand, Chimaev gets more publicity for one fight than all his other fights combined. Yeah, this is a horrible idea, and smart move by Diaz to turn it down.
 
It is true bc if Diaz wins?

Ppl will say Khamzat was a bust, all hype and nate will get no credit.
 
Max Kellerman is legit. His shocked reaction to Usman saying he wants to box Canelo was priceless lol "YOU WANT TO BOX CANELO, ARE YOU ACTUALLY SAYING YOU ARE TRYING TO BOX CANELO??!!", then proceeds to ignore that bs and move on to other qs lmao

 
As usual Dana makes no sense "I got called out for wanting to feed nate to the wolves for Khamzat but he wants to fight Usman"
Nate can WANT anything that doesn't mean he has business fighting either of those men who easily destroy him both would be feeding him to wolves. He's coming off 2 dominant losses.

This miss match will suck, you, me and Dana all know it.
 
Max is reaching another level since he walked away from that toxic relationship with Stephen A Smith.

It's not that Max is a better journalist.

It's that he doesn't need to kiss the UFCs ass or play the company song to keep his press pass.

Max is secure in his ESPN gig and boxing commentary work if he wants, he doesn't need to be a "company guy" for the UFC.

Beating khamzat would be huge reward for Nate. Basically puts him back in the mix.

No, Khamzat would knock him out on the feet for the fans.
