Nate is beast. Pay the man Dana!

nate's a really good fighter. having said that, he may have signed a stupid loving contract but i think there's a little bit of onus on the ufc to make sure they don't take advantage of the mentally challenged when they're being represented by managers who are thieves. nate diaz deserves more than 15/15 to fight top 5 / 10 guys unless you want him to gently caress off to WSoF and get wrestled by askren

He might deserve more, but he sure as poo poo isnt making any effort to get more. The onus isn't on the UFC, it's on Nate to find competent management; its a conflict of interest for them to hold his hand through the negotiation process while also negotiating against him. That's why you hire competent attorneys or managers, so that you don't get 'conned' into an 8 fight deal at 15/15.

Anyone who's ever heard 'Mike Tyson' and 'Don King' used in the same sentence is likely aware that fight managers are thieves by default, shirtless utopias like TAM are the exception. I think the Diazes have this kind of chip on their shoulder where they expect opportunities to present themselves, rather than proactively seeking them. I mean, Nate even says that he waited for the UFC to call him, when he must have a direct line to Dana, much less their personnel office.

Nate just had to Google Kogan at some point in the past 6 months, the front page result is "Mike Kogan: Diaz's Salary Dropped Because 'I Suck As A Manager, Lol'".

Man I didn't read anything mma in the past week or two and I feel completely out of the loop.

Not sure how I feel about Barnatt vs Hunt. I like both guys way too much to be excited about that fight.

edit: I meant Barnett but thanks for the hilarious image of Luke Barnatt being ragdolled by hunto.

It might do well live because it's Vancouver, but if it does better than the Hendo/Evans show on PPV it will be a success.

nah this ain't the time for that. Rousey is the hottest poo poo in the MMA world and she only did ~340k recently. Mighty Mouse is a cool guy but nobody cares about the 125 division and especially nobody cares about Ali Burmagomedov.
