Oh I thought you said "serious question". Your question is a joke. If you actually think that is possible you don't follow Nate very closely or the sport very closely. Do you actually think that if Nate lost this fight that Conor or the UFC would give him a rematch? They wouldn't. To think that Nate Diaz would ever go out there and throw a fight is ridiculous. One sentiment that I may agree with is that in order to lose this fight, Nate would have to throw it but that's not happening so Conor will be taking another loss.
I might think something funny was going on but not with Nate. I just don't see Nate losing this fight. If he does, I guess it could be to a bad decision (even though I don't think Conor can last two rounds with Nate let alone 5), bad stoppage, or Connor cutting Nate so bad a doctor stopped it. In none of those circumstances would I think Nate threw it. Even in the very remote case that Conor somehow KOs Nate, I would think Conor won and Nate gave his best.
Zero chance that there will be a third fight. If Nate wins, who wants to see it again? If Conor wins, he would never agree to a second fight. He'll say that's how the first fight should've gone, and now I have other fights to make.
