Apparently the other option they were considering for him was Tony Ferguson. In that sense, I think fighting Nate is a better option.
A fight with Nate pays better.
Looks like a win to me.
I am pretty sure he'll probably fight under the terms of his current contract.It's a win-win for his bank account.
You can bet he's making a shit-ton more for this fight than he ever has.
Ya, but he's a pretty 19-11 fighter. Very dangerous fight for a style like dustins. Boxer v boxer is Nates game.It's the co-main, I'm assuming Dustin is getting some sweet PPV money, besides if he didn't feel confident in beating a 19-11 fighter then he has no business talking title shots tbh.

A title shot was far from guaranteed for Dustin. This fight is actually the best way to cement his name at the top of the division, and definitely presents the best avenue to make a Conor rematch compelling. It's an easier match than Tony and will get him more exposure.
If he knocks Nate out or finishes him decisively its a huge win for him!
Diaz will draw in casuals for sure, beating Nate gets Dustin’s name out there
You are dumb. Conor lost to nate, conor didn't finish nate. If Dustin does the same thing the "conor lovers" won't say shit. Also where the fuck does it say you don't get ppv for being co main event? You get ppv if it's in your contract. You could be the first fight or anywhere on the main card and you'll get ppv if your contract says you'll get ppvif dustin were to lose sherdog and conor lovers will call dustin a bum.
if dustin wins but doesn't fnish nate lose sherdog and conor lovers will call dustin a bum for not being able to finish a guy who is coming out of retirement.
it also the comain event so dustin doesn't even get ppv points since that goes to main event fighters.
dustin should of waited for the title shot since the world still doesn't know if conor is retired or not.
a title fight with khabib pays better than a retired nate

If you keep it generic like that probably a title fight is worth more. But if you put Diaz or McGregor as the "guy coming out of retirement" then that fight is worth more.so a title fight wouldn't pay more than a comain spot vs a guy coming out of retirement.
Think so? Legit question. I'm sure you can negotiate PPV points, but didn't Dustin just sign a contract?It's a win-win for his bank account.

i actually think it's win-win for him. if he wins, he's still there in contention for the title. if he loses, he would have made decent money out of it.
