Nate Diaz on his social media
You’re just going to throw GOAT at a motherf— when he just showed up on the scene.I can’t even remember anything but getting bored in all them fools’ last fights, so that name shouldn’t even be thrown at those guys. I think Topuria is a more complete fighter, good fighter, though. Who is the GOAT? Jon Jones, for sure.
It is recalled that on November 16 in New York, USA, in the main event of UFC 322, Islam Makhachev defeated Jack Della Maddalena by unanimous decision.
Makhachev's previous fight took place in January 2025 at UFC 311, where he defeated Renato Moicano by submission in the first round. His record stands at 28 wins and one loss.
