Nick Diaz Vegan|Diet
Diaz has been on a vegan diet since he was 18 years old. While speaking to Men’s Journal, he said, “I like to promote the vegan industry,” Nate enthuses. “I hear a lot of criticism from people saying you need meat to be strong and for recovery, and it’s a bunch of b*****t because I train harder than everybody. It’s so easy to argue with these people. I’m like, ‘Dude, have you done a tenth of what I’ve done?’”
He later added, “People are jumping on slowly but surely,” he acknowledges, adding, “but I think it’s cool. I think you’re a smarter and more intelligent fighter. I and my brother are at the top of the game and have been for a long time. We’re obviously doing something right. Besides knowing how to kick somebody in the head, you should know how to feel good tomorrow.”
“I stopped eating dairy when I was about 17 for a fight,” Diaz recalls. “And about a month went by that I didn’t eat cheese or milk, and then after the fight was done I got a big bowl of Fettuccine Alfredo, and I was like, ‘Finally, I get to eat what I want.’ Then I went home and was sick and had a headache and was in and out of the bathroom for a week. That shit really messed me up. So after that cleared up, I was like, ‘OK, I don’t need that anymore.’ I felt better and realized I work better without that stuff.”
Nick Diaz Quotes
“In order to love fighting, I have to hate it.”
“I just want to do something big if I do anything at all.”
“I’m not trying to hate on nobody. I love everybody that works towards what I was working towards. It’s a hard game, it’s a hard life.”
“I may not be able to keep fighting for money… but I will always have to fight for my dignity because that’s who I am.”

Nick Best Fight
Nick has had a couple great fights but one that was the most notable was the fight between him and Paul Daley, 9 April 2011. Both Daley and Diaz had their moments but at the end of it all, Diaz carried the day and planted Daley on the mat, unconscious after a devastating combination, followed by brutal ground-and-pound against the fence.
Nick Diaz Ban
The UFC welterweight was in 2015 served with a 5-year ban by The Nevada State Athletic Commission after testing positive for marijuana metabolites following a decision loss to Anderson Silva at UFC.

Nick Diaz Interview
Nick Diaz News
Tyron Woodley claims Georges St-Pierre turned down a fight with him ‘five or six times’
Source: mmamania.com
When former UFC champion Georges St-Pierre officially retired earlier this week it closed the window on a potential clash between “Rush” and current UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley.
While GSP’s resume, which includes wins over Matt Hughes, B.J. Penn, Nick Diaz, Carlos Condit, and Jake Shields, has cemented his legacy as one of the top three best fighters of all time, the Canadian superstar never crossed paths with “Chosen One” inside of the Octagon. It’s a bit of a let down considering Woodley has now racked off three-straight title defenses and is quickly becoming one of the most dominant welterweight champions in UFC history.
According to Woodley, UFC tried to book a fight with St-Pierre on multiple occasions, but GSP never seemed to be on board.
“I came to the UFC about potentially fighting Georges, and then they went to Georges about a fight, and Georges would say ‘no, I want to fight somebody that makes sense for my career, that’s going to boost me.’ A.K.A., he felt that if we fought it was only a win-win situation for me,” Woodley told TMZ (shown above). “He had a stronger name, stronger brand. I would gain strong pay-per-view points from the fight. If he wins, he was supposed to win. If I win, now my career is boosted. That was his reasoning many, many times. It wasn’t once. It was lots of times. Five or six times, this fight was brought to him, to take on a fight against me, and he wasn’t into it.”
Woodley, who last lost to St-Pierre’s prodigy Rory MacDonald back in 2014, began his UFC career in 2013. At the same time, St-Pierre was wrapping up title defenses over Diaz and Johnny Hendricks en route to walking away from the sport for four years.
