In what might be the veteran's final UFC match, Khamzat Chimaev will take on Nate Diaz at UFC 279. Diaz suspects he is being utilized to make the Swede a superstar since he seems destined for fame. At the UFC 279 media day, the undefeated welterweight was questioned about a recent altercation he had with Paulo Costa at the UFC Performance Institute. “Nothing [happened],” Chimaev said. “He was talking s*** about me. I never talked about that guy, maybe once or something. He wants to be famous now. “Israel [Adesanya] f***** his ass. So what? All the world saw that s***. He has to go back and do something easy.” The footage, which Costa later released, showed the fighters exchanging words before coming face-to-face with a cage between them. Later he wished to face Khamzat Chimaev if he gets past Nate Diaz on Saturday. On Wednesday at UFC 279 media day when asked about the potential match-up with the Brazilian, Chimaev quickly ruled out the possibility of fighting Costa after the UFC 279 headliner. Despite having previously competed at middleweight, it doesn't seem like he'll be moving back up to 185 pounds to face Costa. “Why [should I fight him]?” Chimaev said. “I don’t fight with that guy. Somebody already f***** him up in the ass.” Chimaev also spoke about the welterweight division, where a victory over Diaz at UFC 279 might have put Kamaru Usman in his crosshairs. After Usman's surprising knockout loss to Leon Edwards at UFC 278 in August, those intentions abruptly changed. Chimaev applauded the British welterweight for pulling off the stunner, especially when it seemed he was sailing toward a decision loss. “It was an amazing performance,” Chimaev said about Edwards. “He showed his heart. In the last minute, he knocked him out. I am happy for him. He deserved that. He worked hard.” Edwards and Chimaev were originally supposed to meet, but multiple matches between them were canceled. He was unsure that the newly crowned king of the welterweight might want to reconsider their past rivalry now. “He doesn’t want to talk about me,” Chimaev said. “I see somebody asked him my name, and he jumped over it. He spoke about [Nate] Diaz, he spoke about [Jorge] Masvidal, [Kamaru] Usman, all of them. The guy doesn’t want to see my face.” Despite the dispute, Chimaev appears to be happy to put it behind him. Chimaev should devote all of his attention to UFC 279 and Nate Diaz because he is about to compete in his first UFC main event and a win over Diaz might put him next in the fight for the UFC gold.

Leon Edwards is not buying Kamaru Usman's nonsense about being "gracious in loss." The newly crowned welterweight champion thinks Usman is portraying a character to demonstrate his modesty in light of his unfortunate defeat. According to Leon "Rocky" Edwards, Kamaru Usman is not a humble person; rather, the headkick defeat at UFC 278 has humbled the Nigerian Nightmare. Edwards, who defeated Usman in his final fight to win the title, couldn't be happier, but he doesn't understand why Kamaru is acting relieved that he lost now. After losing the UFC welterweight championship to Leon Edwards in Salt Lake City last month, former champion Kamaru Usman recently revealed that he felt a wave of relief. However, the newly crowned champion has doubts about the genuineness of the Auchi native's words and delight. Usman after his defeat quickly demonstrated to the world that he is not depressed about it. Additionally, the former champion appeared on the Joe Rogan Experience Podcast and made light of his loss to Leon. Many people praise Usman for handling the defeat so gracefully, but Leon thinks it's all about character. Usman described how it felt after Edwards' head kick hit the ground. He said while talking to Joe Rogan on his podcast “I shake left, I shake right, and I’m sitting in the ambulance and they’re asking me, ‘do you know where you are?'” The Nigerian Nightmare claims that after being knocked out, he came backstage, hugged his family, talked to his coach, and barely remembers anything. He added “It was like Leon gave me a 20-minute nap” However Leon Edwards does not believe this side of Kamaru Usman has any truth to it. In an interview with Ariel Helwani recently he said “I don’t believe it, it’s weird right?” Edwards said of Usman’s reaction to the loss. “To go from this cocky guy to now happy to get knocked out and it’s a relief? I just don’t believe it. For me and hope as I said, I never got to a stage where I’m happy for a loss you know? and yeah, it’s weird, the way he’s handling it like the only way he could handle it. He couldn’t come out and be like, salty. I think he’s handling it the only way he could handle it. You know, so we’ll see. I don’t know it’s weird. I haven’t watched much of him since, I started the Joe Rogan thing yesterday, like clips of it, not a full interview, it’s weird. I feel like he’s overdoing it. You know, like, he was the champion. He fought and he couldn’t be beat. Now you’ve been beat. That’s the game.” Many believe that it will be tough for Usman to come back after a devastating knockout. They both are expected to run it back in the first half of next year. With the UK being the preferred location for the Welterweight Championship bout.

Ten years after Savannah Marshall defeated Claressa Shields in an amateur competition, the two will finally square off as professionals in a middleweight title unification fight. All that uproar and rage can fade away on Saturday when they face off for the undisputed middleweight world championship, compete in front of a loud O2 Arena crowd, and put an end to a feud that has festered for more than a decade. The last time they squared off in the ring was in 2012, when Shields was just 17 years old, and Marshall prevailed. Much has changed. Shields, who had never lost before or since the defeat to Marshall, went on to win two Olympic gold medals, three professional division titles, and establish himself as the face of combat sports. The 27-year-old Flint, Michigan native is 4-0 versus previous or current champions and is 7-0 in title matches. She has won world titles in two different weight classes. In her 12-fight career, she has only lost a handful of rounds, including at least seven clean decisions and two knockouts. The 31-year-old Marshall, who represented her native England as a two-time Olympian and 2012 World Champion, lost both of her fights in 2012 and 2016. She defeated Hannah Rankin in seven rounds to win the vacant WBO middleweight title in October 2020, and she successfully defended it three more times, all by knockout, against Maria Lindberg, Lolita Muzeya, and Femke Hermans to set up the matchup with Shields. Ahead of their fight Marshall has predicted a knockout win over Claressa Shields infront of the home support. While talking to Sky Sports she said "Everyone is coming here to watch the Brit knock the American out. This is what sold that fight," she said. "No one's coming to watch her. Everyone's coming to watch the Brit knock the gobby American out. That is what it is. "I'm never going to get a fight like this, where there's a rivalry. Where it's a little bit more than business. It is a little bit more than business," she continued. "This is the biggest fight for me. "There's me and Claressa. This is it. This is the one." Marshall eventually won the WBO championship trophy. While neither can turn back time, the Briton's years of despair as a professional and amateur athlete would be put to rest if she were to defeat Shields and become undefeated. The two women lock horns at the O2 Arena London on 10th September live on SkySports Box Office.

Another day, another fiasco surrounding Stockton's very own Nate Diaz and the UFC. On Saturday Khamzat Chimaev will come up against Nate Diaz and this will perhaps be the final time we see 209 inside the octagon. Even though Diaz is already more than a 7-to-1 underdog at the majority of sportsbooks, he made it clear in an interview with ESPN on Tuesday that he didn't even want the fight with Chimaev. He said frustratingly “What they’ve got me doing right now is they’re acting like I called for this fight, which I didn’t call for, and I don’t want, and didn’t want, and still don’t want,” Diaz said. “But I don’t give a f***I'll fight anybody. But the pressure’s on him — he better finish me, because he’s the next killer in town. “Because ... if I whoop his ass, they’re going to say, ‘Oh, he wasn’t the best in town.’ But they’re not going to let me go [otherwise]. I asked for 20 fights, 10 fights, 15 fights.” Diaz has consistently complained that UFC president Dana White and his team have thwarted his attempts to fulfill the remaining terms of his UFC contract. As Chimaev advances toward a title opportunity, one theory going into the bout is that UFC is throwing Diaz to the wolves here. Diaz is one among those who thinks upper management at the UFC has that goal in mind. The native of Stockton claims that he thinks the UFC is trying to help Chimaev succeed at Diaz's expense. Since his June 2021 decision defeat to Leon Edwards, who is now the UFC welterweight champion, Diaz has undoubtedly not been timid when making callouts. Over the course of the past year, Diaz publicly and repeatedly requested fights with action fighters Vicente Luque and Dustin Poirier, among others; Luque and Poirier both responded to Diaz's requests. In Particular, the Poirier match received a lot of fan support. Since his defeat against Leon Edwards in June 2021, Diaz has not competed in any professional fights. Diaz has lost to Leon Edwards, Jorge Masvidal, and Conor McGregor in three of his previous four fights. After a three-year hiatus, his most recent victory came in 2019 against Anthony Pettis. Chimaev, on the other hand, has started his career by winning 11 straight matches. He has four finishes inside the Octagon after defeating Li, John Phillips, Rhys McKee, Gerald Meerschaert, and Gilbert Burns.

When asked regarding the top five UFC fighters of all time in an interview with GQ, UFC president Dana White added his opinion. There are many people who would be genuine shouts, but the man in charge of the promotion is likely the one who should be taken seriously. "Jon Jones, Anderson Silva, Ronda Rousey, Conor McGregor, GSP (Georges St-Pierre)," White said to GQ. "There are so many other people that should be there, Usman should be there. Regardless of what you think about Jon, it's hard not to call him the GOAT." Regardless of not making the list of Dana White's top 5 fighters of all time, Demetrious Johnson remains one of the decorated fighters. Mighty Mouse may not receive enough recognition from the UFC for being one of the greatest fighters in the history of the organization, but Joe Rogan does. In their rematch at ONE on Prime Video 1 last month, Johnson (31-4-1), a former longtime UFC flyweight champion, defeated Adriano Moraes with a walk-off flying knee to win the ONE Championship 135-pound championship in Singapore. It was a knockout that may have won Knockout of the Year, and for Rogan, it served as a reminder of Johnson's significance in history. Talking on his podcast ‘’The Joe Rogan Experience’’ with the guest Kamaru Usman, he quoted: “He is one of the greatest of all time,” “That guy is so f*cking talented. So talented. And the way he set that knee up, the way he hits him with the right hand and is like a boss – not yet, not yet, BOOM. Lands it perfectly. … He just knew just by the impact, ‘No way he’s getting out of that one.'” With an outstanding armbar submission of Ray Borg in October 2017, Johnson broke Anderson Silva's record for the most straight championship defenses in the UFC. After defeating Joseph Benavidez in September 2012, Johnson held the inaugural UFC 125-pound championship until he was forced to fight in a rematch with Henry Cejudo in August 2018. He lost to Cejudo this time on a controversial split decision. In an unusual exchange between major MMA organizations, the UFC transferred Johnson to ONE Championship for Ben Askren two months later. Johnson’s dominance in the division, which was less liked since it made the division "boring" and Dana White’s public discussion about shutting the division made Johnson move on to a new chapter. It caused friction between Johnson and White which eventually resulted in the UFC getting rid of Mighty Mouse. Rogan criticized the UFC's decision to devalue Johnson's brilliance. He claimed: “They don’t talk about him. They don’t bring him up,” Rogan said. “It’s just really weird like the UFC doesn’t promote him anymore now that he’s gone and goes to another organization. When they play The Who (inside arenas), they have that music, and they have the compilation, how the f*ck do you not have ‘Mighty Mouse’ in that?” Johnson appears to be a lock for the UFC Hall of Fame given his achievements. But in Rogan's opinion, he already should have been recognized. Rogan won't be happy if politics surrounding Johnson's participation in another organization prevents him from being inducted. “I don’t get any of that,” Rogan said. “In my world, that doesn’t make any sense. Gotta recognize that. Guy is one of the greatest champions ever.”

The former UFC welterweight champion, Kamaru Usman, was dominating in his title defense against Leon Edwards. But all of a sudden that dominance was shattered when Edwards knocked out Usman with a ferocious kick, in the very last minute of the fight. Usman was left flat on the canvas. The loss broke his 19-fight-long win streak, dethroned him from the pound-for-pound ranking, and now he is no longer on the top of the division. Usman shared his memories of the fight's ending on The Joe Rogan Experience, and while he claimed to be in good health, the aftermath of Usman’s first KO loss is spotty at best. “I was good,” Usman said. “I watched the fight over, I’m good. I was talking, I talked to Trevor [Wittman], I talked to everyone because you know you go back and then you go in the medical tent and they take care of you and all of that. I talked to my family, I hugged everyone, because it was on video and everything. I remember sitting. It was like, Leon gave me a 20-minute nap. “I was laughing hysterically in the hospital because I had to go in to get scanned and all of that, which everything was fine. Immediately I come to, I’m in the ambulance, they’re asking, ‘Do you know where you are?’ I’m like, ‘Yeah, Salt Lake City. UFC 278.’ They’re like, ‘What’s your date of birth?’ I answer them. They’re like, ‘Wow, perfect.’ I answered everything perfectly.” Kamaru Usman added that he was furious when he couldn’t defend the takedown attempt by Edwards. He claimed that he was more upset with that takedown in the first round instead of the loss. Usman knew that he lost that round on all three judges’ scorecards but eventually backed it up with strong control in the next three rounds. “In the first round, the fight is going on and boom, that situation happens,” Usman said. “He hooked my leg, and this is my bad knee — both of them aren’t the greatest — so I’m like, OK let me hip him through. I tried to hip him through but he had a great position, kudos to him, and I get taken down. That I was probably more upset about, giving up that takedown. I was like, ‘F***! I gave up a takedown.’ The Nigerian Nightmare further revealed that he wanted to step up Leon Edwards in a dramatic finish just like he did against BMF Jorge Masvidal in a rematch. But the plan didn’t work out for the former champion as Rocky struck before Usman could cast his spell. “I’m moving, moving, OK,” Usman remembered. “I’ve got him set up, which I really didn’t. I shake left, I shake right, and I’m sitting in an ambulance and they’re asking me, ‘Do you know where you’re at?’ I’m like, ‘What the f-ck?’” Even though Usman appeared to be healthy, he was sent to the hospital for further testing, giving him plenty of time to reflect on his loss. He finds solace in knowing that the knockout that cost him his title was the result of his blunders and had nothing to do with Edwards' luck. The rematch talks immediately started to settle their score on Britain's soil. The trilogy fight might get delayed a little longer with UFC 279 upcoming and if Khamzat Chimaev beats Nate Diaz, then there is a possibility that UFC might match up Rocky with the Swede for his first title defense.

In reaction to being challenged by his fellow British fighter, Anthony Joshua has informed Tyson Fury that he will be prepared to challenge him in December. Oleksandr Usyk was set to face Fury, but the Englishman has switched his focus to his countryman after calling the Ukrainian a "b****ing." He said in a video posted to twitter “Anthony Joshua, I know you’ve just lost a fight to Usyk and you’re beltless at the moment. I’d like to give you an opportunity to fight me for the WBC heavyweight championship of the world and the lineal championship in the next few months.” The Ukrainian recently admitted that he has unspecified injuries that will prevent him from competing for the remainder of 2022, which prompted Fury to start looking for a replacement opponent. Joshua just suffered his second straight loss against Oleksandr Usyk, who defeated him in September 2021 in London through majority decision before triumphing in their rematch in August in Saudi Arabia to clinch the WBA, WBO, and IBF heavyweight titles. For years, a clash between the two has been termed the "Battle of Britain," and it now seems that it might be imminent. Usyk was meant to be the first to enter the ring to face the "Gypsy King," but it looks like he's holding up Joshua's entrance. Now that a year-ending matchup is expected, negotiations between the parties may take place. Given the historical rivalry between the two boxers as they compete to be regarded as Britain's best, any battle would be one of the most eagerly anticipated of all time. Anthony Joshua also replied to Tyson Fury on his official twitter account. He wrote “Yea calm. I don’t do the online discussions just for clout, so if your really about it shout @258mgt. I’ll be ready in December. Khalas,” Joshua said quote tweeting a tweet from Fury’s account calling on Joshua to fight him. Will the fans get to see the much anticipated matchup between two British powerhouses or is this just another one of Fury’s marketing techniques to stay relevant in the media?

UFC commentary analyst Daniel Cormier believed that blazing welterweight contender Khamzat Chimaev was the worst loser after the bout when Leon Edwards head kicked Kamaru Usman into the shadow realm and stole his 170-pound title in the process. If Chimaev defeats Diaz, according to UFC president Dana White, he will be the next in line for a title chance. Now Edwards and Usman (20-2 MMA, 15-1 UFC) are anticipated to square off in a trilogy fight. That means Chimaev will have to sit out until the first half of next year if he wants to challenge for the 170 lb strap. However, the exciting Swede in an interview with ESPN’s Brett Okomotto laid out his plans if the trilogy is the next matchup UFC aims to make. He said “If they want to do it, for me no problem,” Chimaev told ESPN of an Edwards vs. Usman trilogy. “I’m gonna take some other fight, and we will see what’s happening. Maybe Israel Adesanya or the other guy, Pereira. Who wins that, maybe fight with them. I don’t know.” Chimaev believes Usman's lack of concentration versus Edwards harmed him. Usman was being compared to Georges St-Pierre as the greatest welterweight of all time, and Chimaev thinks his mind wasn't in the right place since "The Nigerian Nightmare" kept bringing up boxing champion Canelo Alvarez. He said “It was a crazy fight, good fight,” Chimaev said. “I learned a lot of things about that fight. The guy (Usman) was too much high up: ‘I’m gonna fight with Canelo,’ and he got shot. He wasn’t being focused.” Chimaev, however, must deal with a fight right away because first things first. Chimaev and Nate Diaz will square off in the UFC 279 main event this coming Saturday. Chimaev is fighting a man he has a lot of respect for in his first headline match. But according to Chimaev, that is no longer an option once the cage door closes. He said “One side I respect the guy. All my opponents I respect the guys, but once I go to kill somebody, there’s no need for respect... If he can, he’s going to kill me. I’m going to do the same thing. In the cage when it comes time for war, I respect nobody.” It will be interesting to see who comes out on top in the match up between Khamzat Chimaev and Nate Diaz where the odds heavily favor the Swedish native.

In their WBC title eliminator, Andy Ruiz Jr, a former world heavyweight champion, dropped Luis Ortiz three times on route to winning by unanimous decision. It only took Andy Ruiz Jr. a split second to alert the boxing world of his potential for danger. Ruiz briefly caught Luis Ortiz off guard before unleashing a powerful overhand right that resulted in the first of three knockdowns that helped him win the fight on a unanimous decision on Sunday night, live on pay-per-view. The judges at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles gave Ruiz victories with scores of 113-112, 114-111, and 114-111.Although Ruiz could have put together a more persistent effort that would have resulted in a stoppage, "The Destroyer" ultimately earned the significant victory. Ruiz's fast hands proved to be too much for the 43-year-old Ortiz, who was battling age but not giving up. Ruiz moves one step closer to a crack at the world championship because the contest was an eliminator for the WBC heavyweight title. At the weigh-in on Saturday, Ruiz, who recruited Alfredo Osuna as his trainer after defeating Arreola and parted ways with Eddy Reynoso, weighed in at 269 pounds and appeared to be in reasonable shape. In June 2019, Anthony Joshua was startled when Ruiz won the IBF, WBO, and WBA titles. The following December, Joshua won the titles back in their rematch. Ruiz now wants to get back into the title contention again. He said after the victory "I thought I did a beautiful job boxing and countering," he said. "I thought I showed some different class than I usually do instead of just pressuring him and going forward." He added "I want to be champion again and bring that belt back to Mexico!" Ruiz expressed his desire to face former WBC champion Deontay Wilder after his victory over Ortiz, who watched the contest from the stands. In the first half of 2023, if Wilder defeats Robert Helenius next month, it's feasible, if not likely, that they will square off against each other and trade bombs inside the ring and give the fans what they want. Who do you think Andy Ruiz Jr should face next? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!

On December 17th, 2022, the Gypsy King was set to take on Oleksandr Usyk in a mega undisputed heavyweight showdown. Unfortunately, after finally returning to his war-torn homeland Ukraine, Usyk doesn't intend to engage in a fight before 2023. Fury, on the other hand, is completely focused on returning to the ring this year, so much so that he's pushed long-time nemesis, Anthony Joshua, for a winter Battle of Britain. Fury and Joshua were supposed to fight in March 2020 after settling to a two-bout agreement last year. Former WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder, though, wrecked the undisputed bout by winning a court appeal for a trilogy fight with Fury. Fury declared earlier this summer that he would only reconsider coming out of retirement for a $500 million payday. Now, in a sharp turn of events, Fury announced that he will return to the ring only for a free-of-charge match against opponent Anthony Joshua in the United Kingdom. "That's how the fight happens, I'll sign the contract today," Fury, 33, said on his Instagram. "The fight's got to be for free. Free-to-air television and all tickets go for free. No money is to be made out of this British historic fight if it happens. There's the terms, I'm in the driving seat, take it or effing leave it. The ball is in your court, guys. ... Either way, I don't give a damn." In a video posted on social media, Tyson Fury called out Joshua: Anthony Joshua, a former two-time unified heavyweight champion, was defeated by the skillful southpaw Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia last month. But the Watford boxer will return to the ring in December so that he could find his lost momentum and get back on a winning track, according to his promoter Eddie Hearn. Eddie Hearn told The Daily Mail: "We're all gunning for a December return. "It's not confirmed, but that's where everyone's minds are at. "We're not booking a venue, but the conversations - as recently as yesterday – was December for his return. I don't want to start mentioning names, but it's a top 15 fight. "It will be someone credible, who AJ can come back, express himself against and build on what he's learning in camp. "He can then build himself back up to fighting for a heavyweight title again." Time will tell how things would turn out in the future and will the boxing fans be treated with the most anticipated fight between the Britishers? Let us know in the comment section what you think about this matchup.

Although Ciryl Gane had previously held the title of interim heavyweight champion, his breakthrough performance came on Saturday when he won by knockout in the UFC Paris main event. Gane had just suffered his first professional MMA defeat. In January, he lost his chance to become the undisputed UFC Heavyweight Champion to Francis Ngannou. Gane was engaged with the Australian Tai Tuivasa in an amazing back-and-forth battle at Accor Arena with an energetic crowd on his side that delivered in every way. After Tuivasa was nearly finished in the second round, Gane geared up to punish him to the body with a series of kicks, which helped to build up a devastating spell of punches that eventually ended the fight. In the 3rd round, the referee had to intervene to save Tuivasa from additional injury as the fight came to a stop. Gane rose to congratulate his opponent with the Paris crowd. Gane looked excited and happy with his performance as he demonstrated yet again why he is a big threat to the UFC heavyweight division. He didn’t call out anybody specifically in the post-fight interview, but he revealed his desire for the UFC gold. “No matter who [is next], I go back to the belt, please,” Gane shouted. “I want the belt. That’s all I want.” Gane acknowledges that introducing someone like Jones to heavyweight would be perfect, especially given the attention a match of that size would draw. Currently, Francis Ngannou is sidelined due to injury, Stipe Miocic is still out of action, and Jon Jones is waiting for his first heavyweight battle as he teased the fans with a potential return at UFC 282. “To have Jon Jones in this division is going to put some more light, [and] the division is going to shine a little bit more and more,” Gane said on the UFC post-fight show. “That’s why I’m so happy to have this guy in this division. “I don’t know what’s going to happen exactly. People talk about Stipe [Miocic] against Jones, but I’m here. I’m here. I don’t have a good answer [about who is next but] – maybe Jon Jones for the hype, for the money.” Gane's only realistic choice looks to be a #4 ranked heavyweight contender Curtis Blaydes, who tweeted "I got next" immediately after the UFC Paris main event concluded. Although Gane has never been the one to turn down any challenge, he denies facing Blaydes next when future bouts with Jones, Miocic, or Ngannou are still on the table. “I think maybe Stipe or Jones [will be next],” Gane said. “I’m sorry, bro, if I have a choice, it’s not going to be [Curtis] Blaydes. This is not smart.”

Nate Diaz has revealed a new fight promotion related to mixed martial arts and boxing before his final UFC fight against Khamzat Chimaev. With his new combat promotion, Real Fight, Inc Diaz guarantees only the realest fights from the realest warriors. Nate Diaz isn’t the only superstar who runs their own promotions.The McGregor Sports & Entertainment brand belongs to Conor McGregor.Khabib Nurmagomedov is the owner of Eagle FC. Jake Paul runs Most Valuable Promotions. Nate Diaz now owns Real Fight, Inc. It's not anticipated that Diaz's affiliation with Real Fight Inc. will prevent the 37-year-old from competing actively. The extent of his involvement in the promotion's daily operations is unknown. In a press release sent to media outlets, Diaz made the announcement about his new fight promotion business. “Nate will be applying for his promoters license in the coming weeks to form Real Fight, Inc., a new promotion that will focus on promoting combat sports shows, specifically boxing, MMA and BJJ. The new venture has no bearing on his status as a fighter, where he will continue to be very active. Real Fight, Inc. is his expansion into the business side of the sport where he has been a fixture for close to 20 years. The promotion will look attract fighters from around the world, whether it be up and coming prospects or household names who fit the brand of “Real Ninjas. Real Fighters. Real Shit.” www.realfightinc.com @realfightinc There is no known schedule for the first Real Fight Inc. event. The business is currently looking for talent, and "wants up-and-coming talents or big personalities who suit the brand of 'Real Ninjas. Real fighters. Real Sh*t.' It only took the organization a year to finally book Diaz against human wrecking ball Khamzat Chimaev, despite the fact that Diaz had been pressing hard for his final fight under his UFC contract to take place. It's hardly surprising that Nate is already attempting to move quickly and establish himself outside of the UFC given the amount of time that has been wasted. The Stockton fighter has a 2-3 record over the previous five years as of UFC 279. However, despite his defeats by Conor McGregor, Jorge Masvidal, and Leon Edwards, he continues to hold his position as one of the best fighters in the industry.
