UFC: Nate Diaz before UFC 244

Diaz is performing pretty good in welterweight division and after his recent win against Pettis, he seems confident. Diaz has never been kcked out in his life, while his upcoming opponent Jorge Masvidal is a highly-skilled kckout specialist. That could bring best out of fight. Both Misvidal and Diaz are eminent strikers and we can expect a dog-fight if both men decide to get it done standing. However, Diaz will surely have an vant if match goes to ground. Diaz has mastered art of jiu-jitsu and that can be pretty dangerous inside game. Diaz has also got his opponent Masvidal’s respect as a fighter and it won't be surprising if re is a blood bath in fight between two dangerous American men.
