Nate Diaz has hit out at the UFC brass

The youngest Diaz brother’s relationship with his employers hasn’t been the best since his majority decision loss to Conor McGregor at UFC 202. Earlier this year, the Stockton native accused the promotion of intentionally keeping himself and Nick out of the limelight. His comments came a little after UFC 209, a card many mixed martial arts fans assumed he and Nick would be on due to their affinity to the number 209. "You guys have no stars, there’s nobody. You ain’t got no fighters," Diaz said during an appearance on The MMA Hour.

"All these fighters ain’t doing nothing. They’re saying the same old scripted stuff and nobody is doing nothing. So if you’ve got talent, keep it real and make something happen for yourself. "Because there’s nobody, there’s men and my brother. Where’s Jon Jones? They’re not showing him too much love? Is he fighting? He should be fighting, he should be coming back, I think. Show Player "Ronda Rousey is not around, McGregor is hiding with Mayweather. So it’s like all you’ve got is me and Nick.


"It’s like Jon, McGregor, Rousey, me and Nick. And as soon as they’re stars, they’ll just purposefully say not me and Nick. "But I’m like, ‘We’re still getting invited to huge parties, they’re still calling. The only ones who aren’t calling are you, we’re not going away.’" Seven months have passed since Diaz took aim at his employers, and his opinion on their treatment of himself and Nick hasn’t changed.

“The way it is that people don’t understand is, they don’t use [Nick and me] to promote,” Diaz said during an appearance on the Outside The Box podcast. “We’re the best fighters in the game. They don’t want to promote us because they already had Randy Couture, Chuck Liddell, Dan Henderson and Tito Ortiz. They already have America. “You know what I’m saying? They don’t need to promote Americans, they already have America. They already got Canada with Georges St-Pierre. They already got South America with Anderson Silva. So, they got this all on lock.
