Uncle Dana Doesn't Want Nick Diaz to Fight Anymore

[wwkirk]

Uncle Dana showing his empathetic side and his wisdom in relation to Nick Diaz?

“Regardless of how good he looked or what he did after such a huge layoff, I don’t think Nick should fight,” White said. “It’s not that I was in favor of it. He’s a grown man and can do whatever he wants to do. I just don’t think that Nick does it because he loves it. I think Nick does it because he has to do it. I don’t know, man. People always ask me, ‘What’s the key to success?’ It’s all about being happy and doing what you love.”

Could this explain why Nick hasn't been released by the UFC, Dana wanting to protect him from himself?

He’s right. Nick shouldn’t fight anymore

 

[Reign009]

I actually liked his fight with Robbie though, not gonna lie.

Him vs Diego Sanchez could have been great

always making him fight the big hitters

 

[Deleted member 512089]

which means he wants him to fight

 

[MakeSherdogGreatAgain]

I actually agree. I wasn't happy to hear he was coming back. I knew we weren't going to see him at his best. It was sad seeing him just quit like he did. I hope he doesn't fight anymore if he doesn't have a fire under his ass.

Nick Diaz said no mas, he’s done.

I did quite enjoy seeing him get his ass kicked by Robbie.

He fought Robbie who had lost 4 in a row (5 of 6). That was a gift and he still couldn't win.

Yet never will he release him. Go figure that one

They have to offer him fights…..

 

[BigGucci]

Translation: I have to pay nick too much to fight and his PPV numbers are down.

 

[wwkirk]

They have to offer him fights…..

True. But they could still unilaterally release him if they wanted to be magnanimous. Or at least non douchebags.

 

[ltarian11]

Nick needs to get in shape if he wants to fight again. Lawler was in shape so no excuses for Nick. He looked about as fit as me in that fight. Alas, I am not the typical 240 pound, ripped, 3% bodyfat sherdogger.

Why is releasing him better than offering him fights?

 

[PalmStrike]

Is that really the secret to success, Dana? To yours?

 

[wwkirk]

Why is releasing him better than offering him fights?

Freedom? Self-determination? Particularly as they don't really have any use for him. They release numerous fighters every year.

If they don’t release him, it’s because they DO have use for him.
