Nate Diaz proclaimed himself as the best UFC fighter ever during a press conference opposite Jake Paul.
During a press conference opposite Jake Paul, Nate Diaz declared himself the best UFC fighter ever, which is quite a bold claim when the likes of Jon Jones, Anderson Silva, and Georges St-Pierre are taken into account. Diaz believes that his 21-13 record and winning season 5 of The Ultimate Fighter elevates him to the top spot. While it may be a rather unconventional viewpoint, only time will tell if Diaz is able to back up his credentials.
Diaz’s proclamation has certainly caught many off guard, especially when you consider the incredible achievements of other UFC fighters. However, Diaz seems to have a strong belief in his abilities and is not afraid to express it. Whether he can prove that he truly is the best UFC fighter ever remains to be seen, but it will undoubtedly be interesting to see Diaz’s career trajectory moving forward.
The press conference, during which Diaz made his claim, was rather bizarre and sketchy, to say the least. However, it did provide a platform for Diaz to make his bold declaration and to perhaps pave the way for future opportunities to showcase his fighting skills. It remains to be seen how the public and the UFC community will react to Diaz’s claim, but it’s clear that he’s not afraid to speak his mind and back himself as the best.
