Let's be honest, in terms of rankings etc. makes zero sense to do this fight. Nate just beat a LW who only fights at FW, that doesn't get you a shot at a title.

I'd be lying if I was to say I wouldn't want this fight, 2 of my favorites ever.

Would any of you guys like this fight?
 
I say; Let them bang bro! Nate is coming off a very nice fight before Conor. I keep seeing people putting "beating an overweight FW".. Like wut? Wasn't that over weight FW the GOAT? The same GOAT that was possibly going for Lawler after he was going to "beat" Nate? Delusional people are delusional. He was this praised "blessed" fighter and now he's just a no one because he was out of his weight class? He picked that fight lmfao so yes, let them fight. But I'd rather see some redemption on a RDAII fight for Nate.
 
Doesn't make a lot of sense but who am I kidding, I'd definitely enjoy watching that scrap. 2 Fighters. Real Fighters.
 
Not interested. Nates all around skills are amazing but his frame isn't fit for elite matchups at 170. Robbie's too big, strong and fast for Nate even with the champ being a slow starter Diaz wouldn't see the 2nd round. There's so many 155ers making the jump to WW right now an Nates the cream of that crop but WW top 10 has already chewed Diaz back to 155 before. No fighter moving up (155-170) has blown the doors off that div plus most of the matchup the ufc makes for those guys could of been made at LW as well
 
Styles make fights. It would be something I would pay to see.
 
Give Diaz real time to get to be a fit 170er and Nate could take it. He doesn't have to fear the takedowns as much and can just stand and accumulate damage. Both guys get hit alot, so I'd say it would probably be a good scrap with crimson masks to go around.

LOL@ Nate wouldn't see the second round. SMH.
 
Weight classes are there for a reason. I only want to see the top dominant guys like Jones move up. Nate is great, but he is not built for WW and couldn't hang with the top guys
 
I dont want to see Nate fight anyone anymore. The Anderson fight was kinda a farce and even thats ancient history now.
 
Nah Nates skin can’t take those kinda missiles
Doctor would stop that one within 30 seconds

Yeah, Nate hasn't a frame for 170, but he can beat some guys there. Lawler is not the same since few years, so that matchup makes sense
