Stockton's own, Nick Diaz, made his Octagon debut at UFC 44 in 2003 which also happened to be a trilogy fight with Jeremy Jackson

For someone they shunned out the sport they sure do love showing all his fights for the views
It's all about the green!
nazgul barakas but it doesn’t look like they put yt ads on the free fights so that’s cool
@@tuttosalve8352 ohh shit you're right! Still though where was this type of promotion when diaz was still fighting? Ufc should the very least put nick in the ufc hall of fame.
nazgul barakas he’s not officially retired ,he will be later. He’s a pioneer in the sport.
Gotta make that money
So jon Jones does all sort of crimes and for the most recent one he got a 4 day house arrest during a period of quarantine when he should have been indoor eitherway while Nick Diaz basically gets the death sentence for smoking weed? Wtf is up with this system?
Yawn
Nick Diaz is REAL, that's his biggest "sin"
Jones was "punished" by the judicial system. Diaz was suspended by an athletic commission. I say "punished" for Jones because he's gotten nothing worse than a slap on the wrist and some fines for his felony charges.
@What To Do?. What to do?
system is corrupted
Nick was TWENTY YEARS OLD and he's already in a Trilogy.......Insane!! 😲
Honestly I newer liked his style, but as the saying goes,the result speak for them self. And I’m really have the most respect about his back ground, coming from a poor background and ended up in the history of cage fighting!
@@bubamaranovichok4901 This was 20 year old Nick...before he learned to box. He was a Jui Jitzu guy with decent wrestling. Compare this fight to his match up against Paul Daley and its like "Night and Day". He boxing became his greatest weapon. Along with his cardio.
Right! ❤
Did nick ever hold a belt ?
@@DrewHop325 Yeah he was Strikeforce WW Champion and defended it, I think 3 times before the UFC bought them out.
Crazy how much he developed his game. Dude started off only being a ground specialist and became one of the best UFC mma boxers of all time. Diaz bros are the best
The best at what?
The BEST at kicking your arse Matt. They are just living proof not to smoke weed
@@kaybee3781 that’s un heard of a professional mma fighter beating up a slightly trained nobody. What’s your point I would need a full 6 months to maybe beat nick and I would have to wait a few years till Nate declines then maybe have a chance. Nice thinking there mr dumbass
@@mikethyson5782 considering I’m 20 I would be 26 and nick would 44 and I have some trading and yes with 6 years you can become a world class fighter look at volk. Your just mad because someone said some not positive about your favourite fighter.
@@mattreid8292 Lmao dude was toe to toe with Anderson silva and GSP and you think after 6 months you'd have a chance??!
UFC isn't ashamed to show Nick's fights for views, and not letting him be when he was in his prime. Shame.
guiguijol I know. One of my dreams was to see nick winning the strap. Fucking ufc fucked him over weed. Sad
Robert Jack don’t blame the UFC, it’s the Nevada State athletic commission that gave him the ban and fine.
Such casuals in these comments
Parker Swafford yes but Dana white and the ufc made him having a hard time anyways. The dude wasn’t a puppet easy to manipulate. Nate just watched his big bro to be able to avoid traps a better way, and still struggled a lot. But they all know how the bros can sell. Proof with this vid. And Usada makes thing easier for some fighters that the UFC drives easy. ( Jones, Silva, are the best exemples)
Kevin Rodriguez Yep
Diaz doing shoulder punches when McGregor was in kindergarten lol
As effective as the shoulder punches McGregor threw? Nope, not even in the same galaxy as the ones Conor landed. You puds blow me away with your Conor hatred, without Conorr the UFC would still be in its early days. Conor gave all these guys chances to get rich
@@marketingheavydutytowcompa6996 what the fuck are you even talkin about man , connor hatred of course he did great things for UFC but UFC is here for more than 20 years fam , check some wikipedia , also Connor ”trash talk” was another thing nick diaz did while Connor was in kindergarten, facts bruv
Haha good one he did it first
Marketing Heavy Duty Tow Companies it was funny u twat
Wtf are you talking about since he was in kindergarten? They're only like 5 years apart in age.
It's crazy to me how he changed his whole style. He was known for jujitsu and his striking was sub par. To his prime where his striking was elite and knocks out Robbie Lawler then goes on late in his career to go 5 rounds with a legend like Anderson silva. I mean talk about evolution of a fighter. Nick's a legend in my eyes
And sylva was on steroids
@@lurkwave is normal
The Lawler fight was not Diaz's prime lmao
@@shane7051 that's your opinion lmao. Just like my opinion is he was coming into his prime in the later strike force fights and the lawler fight and he kept getting better then he had the Bj Penn performance that was diaz in his prime in my opinion
@@ralphanderson988 it's not my opinion though, it's fact. The Lawler fight was the FIRST fight that Nick showed any boxing skills in. I think you're misplacing when that fight happened during Nick's career.
Seeing him fight at 20 is just insane that’s so young I couldn’t imagine myself two years ago at such a high mma level he’s a 🐐
2 years & 3 months ago now. Crazy how time flies...
Jones was champ at 23. 🐐
@@too_sturdy yeah Jon is the goat
@𝕽𝖔𝖚𝖌𝖍 𝖘𝖙𝖔𝖓𝖊 𝕽𝖔𝖑𝖑𝖎𝖓𝖌 lmao does it not take long to become A world class fighter? Lmao
@Mike really though... If a man has gotten caught doing PEDs he should be disqualified from goat talk period. Same as baseball... With Barry bonds. the fact is you never glorify cheating, in any sport. Jones is a nightmare for the sport of mma...and should be Osterisized. Not only a cheater but a woman beater and just a pos in general.. and yet clowns still run around talking about he's the GOAT... NO buddy he got caught cheating red handed
Joe "He's not going to be able to stand up from this" literally 1 second later: stands up
@2:35 lol
A blind man is out of work because of Joe.
To be fair he immediately got taken down again.
Checkout my ufc 249 (may 9) predictions. Picking Tony, Ngannou, and Cejudo to all win. I will do the full card predictions for ufc 249 real soon. Tony is the kind of guy to increase jays success rate to 100% Cheers!!
Jay Singh I predict you have corona .
I though the UFC HATED NICK DIAZ. This quarantine has the ufc in their feeling lol....
Right lol I noticed lately they've been posting alot about the diaz brothers. I love it though!
@@rudyzavala6063 Yeah because even if they shit on Diaz's heads, they know who 's the shit.
If they start showing Frank shamrock fights.
Mark Ponte ufc fans are so retarded. Please, get your shit together
@@JoolianV yet your on a mma post commenting you sound stupid
20 years old and already had a trilogy fight .. Nick's a legend
Nick had a lot of respect for that dude , actually they both had respect for each other. That’s cool especially how young they were.
I don’t care what anyone says, Nick will always be the original BMF.
Agree, not that hyped journeyman with the fake belt !
Ibrahim Mohamed true
HypeVidal lol Usman is gonna fuck him up
@TechSavvy Analyst overarrated? Have u seen strikeforce Nick? Bet you didnt even know Jorge was before 2018
@Alex Amaya or jorge 3 piece and soda that mans gf vagina.
I had the pleasure of training with Nick when I was a white belt in bjj about 3 years ago. He was one of the most humble, knowledgeable, and down to earth people I’ve ever met. I learned some great things that I still use to this day.
Oss
Um, he wasnt a white belt 3 years ago....
Brandon Terry he didn’t say Diaz was a white belt. He was talking about himself
@@100proofcrew you deserve a beating for that
@@100proofcrew "can you even read?" - Marty Fakenewsman.
This fight is underrated . One of the best UFC debuts ever
Mcgregor fans: my Irish stallion was so creative and innovative with his shoulder strikes against cerrone! 20 year old Nick Diaz: hold my gi
Not as impactful as the one the one that Conor did against Cowboy. Nobody said he invented it, he just made it a highly effective and deadly tool, you fucking tool!
All Nick's fights are mandatory viewing. He's such a unique fighter.
I agree. I dont like him to much but his fighting is unique and very fun to watch
The Shape u dont like him y?
@@serenrawat3503 does he HAVE to like him?
@@serenrawat3503 he probably don't like diaz as a person, but as a fighter, he likes Nick, simple
Sugercoated Cyanide nope
The UFC really just blessed us all with a fight Reffed by the legend and greatest ever Steve mazzagati
Tyler Bruce this is such a boring comment. Try use some new or original content.
@@tastyburger9260 Nobody asked you you little pussy, Try talking to someone who cares what you have to think
@@tastyburger9260 yeah fuck off
Fuck steve. Herb dean all day baby!
if he dies he dies
Think what you want about Diaz, but that dudes so humble humble in victory or defeat. Anytime he argues a loss it’s for good reason, he’s been robbed multiple times
well humble in defeat isnt the best way to put it, dude beat up the dude he lost to at the hospital lmao
Anytime he agues a loss it's for good reason?! LMAO, how about his loss to GSP? Sherk? Riggs? Sanchez? they all whooped him fair and square. Nick is the worst sore loser in MMA history what are you talking about.
Lol not humble in defeat mate, always crying when he loses, bitching about injuries and wrestlers lol. Be quiet.
So cool to see Nate walking behind Nick back here and nowadays Nick is trailing his brother supporting each other the whole way. It’s truly unique.
Imagine if the Strikeforce Nick Diaz would be in current times of the UFC
@CJ Goole shut your fucking mouth pussy
More than likely the same thing that happened when he and his brother fought for the title would happen again, those two divisions are dominated by wrestlers.
@CJ Goole yea first one to KO robbie Lawler, one of the scariest dudes in mma, gomi, Frank shamrock, bj penn..and all he beat was bums u casual dummy
Mr Heisenberg casual spotted
@@serenrawat3503 Yeah right lol

Jeremy even went so far as to raise Nick's arm at the moment when it has to be the most frustrating for him. What a true sportsman.
You realise he's a convicted rapist?
Nick raised his arm..
Jeremy is still in jail for r*ping a woman. He is actually the scum of the earth.
do not praise him
Masterful submission. Love the sportsmanship too.

Let’s wrestle
Jj Boss “then came back and whooped him across the cage beat the lw champ eddie alverez then got humbled and the came back”-conor mcgregor
The c in UFC stands for Conor
After fights, nick is probably the most respectful fighter I've seen. Only worried about his opponent
It actually seems sincere coming from him while someone like Conor, GSP, Jones etc do it to gain favor with the public.
Only when he wins :) You don't remember the fights after his fights obviously.
slinkytreekreeper just not true
slinkytreekreeper watch the silva fight. he’s usually very respectful in victory and defeat (with a couple of exceptions obviously)
GSP and Fedor.is way more.respectful
You know it's vintage when it says... "Winner by Submission - Tap Out" Love rewatching the early matches. It's grown exponentially over the years. 👊🏻🙏🏻
Also, Rogan calling the anaconda? A guillotine?
*In every fight, Nick shows sportsmanship. I like it*
Nick Diaz at 20 making ufc debut Me at 20 waiting for quarantine to get over.
Okay Ashok.
Im 20 as well bro it sucks yeah but safety first
Me at 22 thinking I'm 21 about to be 23
well it is 2020..
Stuart Moore bro this resonated with me so much
"There's absolutely no way Jeremy Jackson gets up". *Jeremy Jackson gets up*
more than once haha
He actually was talking about the 25 to life he got for aggravated rape. He didn't get back up from that which confirms that Joe is delivering commentary genius upon us.
@@heyman228 damn I always wonder what happened to these fighters, you never heard of again
im pretty sure this dude is on roid..back in a day they didnt test much
@@heyman228 wild that his sentence is half over already, this fight was a long time ago
Great sportsmanship from both fighters.
"Nick's stand up is not as good!!" Oh, how Rogan ate those words in Diaz Vs Lawler!!
To be fair Nick was a very ground oriented fighter at the time because he was a brilliant BJJ artist, by the time he fought Lawler he changed to a more standup style of fighting because he knew that boxers made more money even in m.m.a.
@@tuonglukim8973 I know, just saying how Nick surprised everybody
“I taught Mario Yamasaki everything he knows.” -Stephen Mazagatti
Underated comment
Mario is distracted by the way his fingers can make shapes. He was the first in his family to have opposing thumbs.
If he dies, he dies
One of the greatest MMA related comments I have seen.
L. Never said. Sheep
3:50 - people acting like McGregor invented the shoulder strikes. Our boy Diaz still the OG
A huge THANK YOU to the UFC for these fight videos. Best wishes out there!
Man,...Nick's skill set really took off. His boxing became so good. He progressed so quick.
Great fight, enjoyed watching Nick Diaz and Lawler back in the day. Crazy to think how long both have been around
crazy how you said this and they ended up fighting
reddit moment
That was the first time I ever saw Nick. It was a fantastic fight
Their 3rd meeting at 20 years old. Crazy. I see why nick doesn't fight now. He was in the game for 12 years before he stopped
TheDonofthsht76 - he didnt stop he got suspended for pot smoking
If you talk about the Diaz brothers, they often say they spar with heavyweights, that they've been hit with everything.. Those guys have been real fucking gangsters from the very beginning.
@@EditHandle7 it got reduced to 18 months alonggg time ago.
@@FrxBass they spar with andre ward also. If you dont know who that is look it up
Mate lol, I'm balls deep in boxing just as much as MMA, I was aware about that, let alone who Andre Ward is, c'mon lol SMW/LHW undefeated retired champ..
Diaz looks a lot stronger here 💪🏼 Even when he was in his prime, I’ve never seen him that big.
Mad how everyone looked more jacked before usada
*Sees Referee name..* oh god.. the memories ✅🙂
13:09 that was beautiful. People think Nick was a brawler but he was so technical and could brawl when he felt no danger.
Counter Right hook immediately to take down. Should be a reference point for every MMA ground attack. Perfection
he was only 20 here. very early in his career... he developed better standup later
The diaz brothers are my favorite Win or lose they never disappoints
the man, the myth, the legend, steve mazzagati
8:08 the way that left bounces his head off the mat, damn. Dude ate that shot too. Both some tough dudes, even at this point.
Back in the days when Joe rogan was less experienced as a commentator
Back in the day before Joe Rogan sold out!! Used to be a cool dude.......
It definitely comes naturally to him
Back in the day before the juice
And back in the day when Mike was being annoying as fuck. We know who the fighters are by the 3rd round, Mike...
@@RyDoggonus that's his job tho. Hes doing it for people who are just tuning in cause you know that happens sometimes. Theres a difference between color and play by play

Id trade my mother!!
Why Jorge ,cause he beat Nate ?
Joe Hernandez 😂😂😂
BestGlaive in the world Jorge a lil hot rn
OnAJet Brian huh
This channel is awesome as of recently with all of the old fights/free fights. Keep em coming.
Fun fact: Mazzagatti in italian means Cat Killer, probably a surname given to Steve's ancestors whom used to kill and eat cats.
Nicks been fighting in the ufc since the golden era of the ufc. Guys such a legend a very good fighter as well. Respect ✊
This is the golden era
In that time PRIDE was the best
This was probably the best shape we seen nick diaz in
Think so? This was wayyyy early in his career
Terms of physique I agree
His journey from improved striker to one of the best striker is phenomenal...
Love these older fights!!! Respect to both these young fighter's who went on to be great...

Nick is awesome. Always a fan.
Joe: Jeremey Jackson is not going to be able to get up from here 2 seconds later: Jeremey Jackson gets up. Lol
Nick Diaz really does look like Joey Diaz’s long lost son...
Nick Diaz is such an underrated fighter . Both his stand up and ground game are deadly. Just to top it off his stamina is crazy and what a chin he has.
Nick is one of the best BJJ technicians in the game but his boxing and stand up has now evolved and is one of best well rounded fighters I've ever seen he's now a fighting machine the guy can hang with anybody and his cardio is second to none
Incredible fight, great sportsmanship 👏 very balanced and fair fighting
9:11 that’s so cooooool. That’s how you know Diaz is a ju jitzu master
That was bs I know white belts in Jiu-Justu that can do that casual
Will Cee he spun and took the back, that’s a basic transition.
Nicholas Aaron well for me as someone who’s never been trained in it. It looked like the dude reversed Diaz and was going to get a dominant position then in my eyes it looked like Diaz was desperately tryna get back to a better position and I was like “😯” then next thing you know Diaz has his back and then I realized Diaz was calm the whole time and knew what he was doing.
Will Cee I feel ya, I’ve never done Bjj either it just seems like something these high level guys do with ease. You right
@@smhgaming3259 You talk a lot of shit for a kid that still watches WWE

original trash talker, too bad he wasnt promoted well in UFC then train by day joe rogan podcast by night, all day...
Because he didn't want to "sell his soul". All respect to that.
He didnt want to do promotion work
In a way Nick he promoted himself excellent by not showing up for press,not getting in the plane last minute and only his luggage showed up,along with always bringing it on.
Nothing more entertaining than the Diaz bros ! Amazing skill and you just can't help but route for them!
Nick is the man. What a great moment to see in history
Wish he would come back and just fight GSP again just for my enjoyment
The first one sucked, why would anyone want a second?
I am a gsp fan but I think his most exciting fights where the bisping fight and the ones where he got beat.

Wow Diaz's hairline has now receded to a normal hairline.
It’s all the surgeries for the scar tissue I bet!
One of the best fights I've seen.
I really miss seeing nick fight. He was a joy to watch imo. I remember one his pride fights where he fought high as a kite and fucking won by submission.
This sport has so much respect he let go of that arm bar before the ref broke it up but he knew he was tapping thats respect
Should post Diaz vs Gomi and Diaz vs Penn
Diaz v Gomi was the first Nick fight i ever saw, and what a fight that was. Watched it cause I was a Gomi fan, by the end of it I was a Diaz fan. I do miss the golden years of mma.
He became one of my favorite fighters when he fought Robbie lawyer and the way he fights with anyone he never has any excuses
These two had so much respect for each other...Jackson so underrated
The cardio brothers...very good style of fight with great ground game.
Nick Diaz, we miss you man, I hope you find peace brother 🙏
What's so amazing is the level of respect His last fight GSP waiting for him Incredible Diaz Army 4 life
THANKS FOR DROPPING GOOD ASS FIGHTS DURING THIS QUARANTINE
UFC needs to upload the Diaz vs Lawler fight 💯
That was when Nick was still cool with people after the fight. He’s so calm and so calculated. Fearless on the ground and in stand up and I think the sport needs him right now. I don’t want his last fight to be the ones we got and I know that’s being selfish.
Nick is by far one of my favorite fighters ever! Both brothers are great but nick is the man!
Always loved watching the Diaz Bros fights... They were bleeders but always showed up for great fights...

He’s a good fighter for sure. It’s his mouth and attitude that kills it for some.
