lol what about his USADA suspension for unapproved IV's? If you think Yoel is on gear then Costa is on gear x100. Some selective standards for juicing here lmao.

unapproved IV's for re-hydration is not juicing and was legal until just a few years ago in the ufc and is still legal in some promotions i do believe. it is however banned by the nevada athletic commission and the ufc now.

You're going tomato tomato here. lol, you just have selective outrage and I pointed it out.

Anyways, Nate via Submission I'm leaning towards now. He'll put that pressure on Pettis.

@Mhar John ... Buddddy, I'm sorry, but I reeaaally don't think you're thinking about Nate Diaz if you're saying "Diaz needs more cardio".

In all seriousness anyone who thinks Diaz is subbing Pettis is either an Orange belt or ********, or both. Seems to be a prevalent delusion however. Bookies are in for a bumper rube harvest on that one.

@philip it's also statistically possible that Margot Robbie will call me later tonight to tell me she's flying over to cook me a stroganoff and sit on my face.

Two years no fight for Diaz.... Yes he has cardio for days... But Pettis is going to be too big, too strong, and too aggressive.. No way Diaz wins this fight.... Pettis by DEC!!!!!

lol Nate Diaz is a bucket of ****. That's the reality. He walks forward spamming two-piece combinations all night and homer simpsons his way to decisions. All you have to do is stay out of his range and kick his lead leg. Like, that's it. Literally that's the blueprint.

He will not beat Pettis, and really the thing he's best at beating is his own sausage.

Last time Nate took a layoff he came back better than ever against Michael Johnson.

Anthony Pettis isn't Michael Johnson + this fight is at 170 not 155, but Nate's very much a live dog in this fight with more than one path to victory. Meep.
