The whole world knows of the Diaz Brothers. Born and raised in Stockton, California, the Diaz brothers started training in combat at a very early age. Nick Diaz, the older brother was the first to enter the world of combat sports. His younger brother, Nate Diaz followed suit. At the early age of 11, Nate Diaz joined his older brother in martial arts training.

The neighborhood that the two grew up in was quite rough, which reflects in their demeanor. Often referred to as a ‘gangster’ in the UFC circle, Nate Diaz found a lot of respect and success in the promotion. Although Nick Diaz beats his younger brother in terms of the sheer number of victories, Nate Diaz takes the cake when it comes to winning by submission.

Who is Nate Diaz’s Sister, Nina?

The Diaz brothers might be hardened fighters but they do have a sister that they love very much. Nick Diaz is the oldest of the three siblings while their sister, Nina Diaz, is the youngest. The three were mostly raised by their mother Melissa Diaz, since their father was not around much.

The three grew up in difficult circumstances. Their mother, Melissa Diaz, had to work as a waitress to be able to afford the bare minimum to support the family of four. At the age of 18, Nate Diaz dropped out of school and he started pursuing a career in MMA in 2002, in the world of bare-knuckle fighting.

Nina Diaz, on the other hand, did not pursue a career in MMA. There is little information about the life that the sister of two of the greatest MMA icons leads. Although she was brought up alongside her brothers, Nina Diaz believed in keeping her life private. She has always managed to keep the limelight away from her. In fact, she has also not been spotted at any of the Diaz brothers’ fights.

Sources suggest that Nina Diaz used to train in karate with the Diaz brothers. However, she quit later on and the Diaz brothers shifted their focus to learning jiu-jitsu.

Are Nate Diaz and Nick Diaz Twins?

Nick Diaz, who was born in 1983, is two years older than his younger brother Nate Diaz, who was born in 1985. The two brothers look quite similar to each other, but they are definitely not twins.

However, it’s quite understandable why the fans might mistake them as twins. The two-year gap between their birthdays doesn’t leave much difference in their appearances, making it harder to spot the older one. Also, the two carry almost a similar persona. Both are marked by their incoherent speaking pattern.

Apart from their looks, when two siblings showcase such similarities in their characteristics.

Nick Diaz and His Sister Nina Diaz Share the Same Birth Date

Well, there are a few sources on the internet that say so. But the truth to this propagated information has hardly been checked to date. Due to the massive fame of the eldest Diaz brother Nick, there are multiple sources revealing his birthday. A number of noted websites state that Nick was born on 2 August 1983.

It is also pertinent to note that the Diaz siblings have their birthdays separated only by about a couple of years. But, it was an Instagram post from Nate that debunked the rumors stating that his siblings Nick and Nina share the same birthdate.

In the year 2017, Nate took to his own Instagram profile to wish a ‘Happy Birthday’ to her dear sister, Nina. However, Diaz made the post on 29 July 2017, which he also called Nina’s birthday. The caption to his Instagram post can be taken as a clarification once and for all, that his siblings Nick and Nina don’t actually share the same birthdate.

It read, “Happy birthday to my lil sister @ninameg209 today and my brother @nickdiaz209 in a couple of days Cps can’t catch us #weriders #ninjas4life love uguys”

It is probably enough for the fans to realize that Nina’s actual birthdate is on the same day on which Nate made this post, i.e. 29 July. Nick’s birthday on 2 August is a well-documented fact. Hence, the fans can now say that Nick and Nina Diaz don’t actually share the same birthdate.
