Nate Diaz has taken on some of the best fighters in the UFC, but his toughest fight may surprise you...
In 15 years and after 27 fights with the UFC, of which he won 16, Diaz has clashed with some of the formidable names the MMA world has to offer.Especially when he fought Conor McGregor for the second timeHe beat 'Cowboy' Donald Cerrone, as well as Anthony Pettis, and suffered defeats at the hands of Jorge Masvidal and current UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards., at a time when the Irishman seemed invincible, although he lost in the rematch.
With this in mind, Diaz would be expected to name one of these fighters when asked who was his hardest opponent he came up against, but instead he singled out 'The Dentist' Josh Neer. He got his nickname because he knocked out the teeth of two consecutive opponents during his amateur career and Neer fought Diaz in 2008 in a bout that was awarded 'Fight of the Night'.
