“It’s always sad, you know. Jessica Eye just laid her gloves down. Cowboy [Cerrone] just laid his gloves down and came and said thank you to me a couple days ago. It’s one of those things in pro sports that sucks. My big thing is just all about getting people out at the right time.”

“Some you do, and some you don’t. I like seeing people go at the right time and yes, it is sad at the same time,” said Dana talking to the media about Nate possibly leaving the UFC. Nate has been fighting in the UFC since 2007 and the Diaz brothers have a separate fan base in the mixed martial arts community. Nate has many records to his name and is undoubtedly one of the biggest stars to ever step into the octagon.

While Dana seems to have a lot of nice words about the Diaz brother, the fans believe throwing Khamzat at Nate is a set up by the promotion to prove a point to the Stockton slugger for all the times he has gone against the company. Nate and Khamzat will be a very interesting fight to watch.
