Following his TKO defeat to Mike Perry at MVP MMA 1, Nate Diaz has decisively shut down any suggestions of retirement.
During his return to MMA, Diaz faced a tough bout against Mike Perry, also known as BKFC’s “King of Violence.” The fight, which lasted two rounds, resulted in a significant amount of damage for Diaz. His scar tissue opened, leading to cuts on his face and above his eyes. After being knocked down by “Platinum” in the second round, Diaz was covered in blood, prompting his corner to call for a stoppage.
Despite the brutal nature of the fight and Diaz’s age (41), many fans urged him to consider retirement due to the risks associated with taking such heavy damage. However, the fighter from Stockton has no intention of stepping away from MMA. He has already agreed to a rematch with Perry.
Mike Perry also seems eager for a second encounter, viewing it as an easy opportunity for further earnings.
Nate Diaz’s Resolute Response to Retirement Calls: “The Show Goes On”
Despite the intense fight and subsequent loss, Nate Diaz attended the MVP MMA 1 post-fight press conference. There, he addressed the fans calling for his retirement.
“I just fought the most violent mother f*cker right there. Maybe next time I’ll run a little harder and I’ll get the job done. Maybe I don’t fight the most violent, maybe I fight the second most violent… The show goes on. I don’t have a check-out time. This sh*t’s forever.”
Meanwhile, Jake Paul is already planning a potential second fight between Mike Perry and Nate Diaz, suggesting it take place in the Bay Area or Sacramento.
