Los fanáticos de UFC ofrecen reacciones mixtas a Nate Diaz alegando defensa propia en pelea callejera en Nueva Orleans
La semana pasada, apareció un video en línea que captura un altercado que involucró a la ex estrella de UFC Nate Diaz en una tarjeta de boxeo de Misfits en Nueva Orleans, donde estuvo presente para apoyar a su compañero de equipo Chris Avila. Las imágenes muestran a Díaz aparentemente asfixiando a Rodney Peterson, una estrella de TikTok que tiene un parecido sorprendente con el YouTuber convertido en boxeador Logan Paul.
El evento provocó una variedad de comentarios de los fanáticos de UFC, con opiniones variadas sobre el tema. Mientras que el abogado de Díaz, Zach Rosenfield, declaró que el hecho fue en defensa propia, agregando una capa adicional de complejidad a una situación ya controvertida.

@McGregorRousey went so far as to label Nate Diaz a thug:
“Nate Diaz really choked an untrained fighter on the middle of the street. He deserves to be arrested. I can’t believe anybody still supports this thug. Assault is never okay outside the octagon. Thank goodness I’m a Conor McGregor fan.”
