Nick and Nate Diaz clearly require no introduction to fight fans. The Stockton-born brothers are probably amongst the most popular fighters not just in the UFC but in all of the combat sports as well. One of the clear reasons why fans love them goes down to the way they carry themselves. And historically, the duo and their teammates have been known for not backing down from any brawls or fights outside the cage.
Although there are quite a few incidents that display this aspect of the Diaz brothers and the ‘skrap pack’, one incident that stands out was the infamous Nashville brawl that took place in 2010 during a Strikeforce event

It’s quite obvious that the ‘Skrap pack’ is clearly not lacking any fans, even in 2023.
Jason Miller kicks off a brawl after Jake Shields win during Strikeforce: Nashville 2010
The infamous incident was kicked off Jason Miller when he went up to Jake Shields during the latter’s post-fight interview. As he tried to ask for a rematch, Shields‘ teammates tried to push him away. Nick Diaz, who was also present at the moment, threw the first punch, which resulted in a huge brawl. Gilbert Melendez and Nate Diaz too joined in and attacked Mayhem as he was restrained on the canvas.
Eventually, officials and other members had to break up the scuffle. The incident had such a massive influence that MMA did not make an appearance on television until the next year.
For MMA fans from that generation, this scuffle was such a remarkable event that many became fans of the Diaz brothers and the scrap pack. And continuing on their legacy, their team went on to make huge strides in the sport.
