The Lightweight fighter pulls up their clash from eleven years ago where he overcame ‘The Stockton Stomper’ via split decision.
“I beat his a** once, I’ll beat his a** again. If he ever toes the line and they stop protecting him, you know my number, Nate. So, don’t be scared, homie. You know where we are at buddy.”
The duo has gone on largely different trajectories since that fight. ‘The Carpenter’ remained at Lightweight and even dropped to Featherweight for 7 fights across three years between 2013-2016.
He has won just 3 times since returning to 155 lbs division in 2017. The wins came over Erik Koch, Joe Lauzon, and B.J.Penn. Now against Bobby Green, he faces a fighter who will be looking to end a losing streak.
Meanwhile, Diaz moved to Welterweight and minted money in two fights against Conor McGregor. En route, he handed the ‘Notorious’ his maiden UFC loss and propelled himself into the highest-earning UFC fighters list.

Diaz is yet to compete since going down to Jorge Masvidal at UFC 244 in the symbolic BMF title fight.
Both fighters are on the wrong side of their 30s and the fight should it go ahead will be interesting. ‘The Carpenter’ always makes it a point to call out ‘The Stockton Stomper’ having done so at UFC 237 too.
