Nate Diaz is a badass.

He’s part of a new generation of grapplers, along with Dustin Hazelett and his older brother, Nick, who have given Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu an MMA reboot: Rubber Guard style!

Check him out for free this Saturday night, June 20, at the TUF 9 Finale on Spike TV. He’ll be fighting the always tough Joe Stevenson. Now, I doubt Nate will be able to match big bro’s June 6 destruction of Scott Smith at Elite XC on Showtime, but I think he’ll come out on top.

Nate Diaz is a future lightweight champ.  He’s got great hands, attitude to match, and of course, he’s deadly on the ground.

Will we ever see a Diaz vs. Diaz match-up in the future? Unlikely, but maybe their parents have some old home movies.
