- The Welterweight from Stockton, CA has been the UFC's poster boy for "Bad behavior" however, his popularity has taken off significantly since his victory over the legendary B.J Penn at UFC 137.

the guy shows the world that even if you have a somewhat crippling mental illness issue like social anxiety (and it can be quite crippling depending on how severe it is), you can still have the confidence and the winning spirit to become a champ.
Diaz isn't unintelligent at all. He just seems to get a bit flustered when all the camera's are in his face...which really is understandable.
Social anxiety.
Handles it well.
I feel him.
Ricardo Moreno I don't see him having social anxiety at all. Fake people that don't give a shit about you and flashing lights are a pain in the ass. Simple.
Black Flame You must not see the symptoms because you don't see people with social anxiety often. The long pauses, the shake In his voice, and how he keeps shaking his arm or leg to relieve the stress. He also takes long breaths and constantly glances down avoiding eye contact with the Interviewer.
social anxiety is a motherfucker man
@@hassanaltarawneh1569 yea it is
So true man that's one of the reasons nick has always been my favourite fighter. I can relate to him
Nick is such a breath of fresh air.
He speaks from the heart.
Finally someone that doesn’t act fake.
from a mexican american, who also has no social skills like nick diaz, i can relate. hes just akward. wich of course has nothing to do with the quality of the person.
❤❤❤❤❤❤💯
Nick diaz is mixed
How do you not love this guy= Pure honesty - so rare, and so hard to do
i understand just how he feels,i feel judged everytime im around people too,i cant stand it when people stare at me
social anxiety trust me I have it and it's absolutely horrible
Lee O'toole bro. It is preventing me from doing what i like and i dropped school and cant learn anything in life. Social anxiety sucks.
Stupid.. he's prob just tired, hungry, beat to sht from training, angry, etc.. plus fuck them reporters lol...
Marco Cervantes do you have it ? I never had it until i was about 18 19 and I dont know why I got it ? I used to be the ring leader now I've lost everyone I used to know
Californiano CAF you’re stupid
@@ajlovesyou8807 I learned more in neil degrasse tyson podcasts than in school at all. Give it a chance buddy. You are not dumb if you dont have information, you are dumb if you dont know how to get any. Always remember bro
some ppl dont like the spotlight i dont understand how ppl cant grasp that concept
In this video Nick reminds me of myself when I am going through a job interview. Now I kind of see why I don't get hired.
Yep thats me at every job interview

@@leandroantelo7154 I don't! Because this also reminds of myself! I get really fucked up when someone asks me the stupidest question "talk about yourself"
How? Like wtf u wanna know exactly?? Wtf you wanna hear and ill make u hear it!
The beginning is fucking hilarious, that huge silence and his body language. He's so in his own mind but seems to have it kinda worked out. He's obviously socially anxious and comes from a background that requires you to act tough, not be a sissy etc. - which only feeds into the social anxiety narrative. Social anxiety is basically intrusive thoughts forming while you try to think of what to say, so you have to put effort into ignoring those thoughts as well as picking the right thing to say - you can see the buffer time when it happens. Also - surely he has some CTE going on at this point, I really hope not but it seems silly to think there wouldn't be some level of brain damage (not necessarily that it will impact his life terribly, maybe just some memory loss)
He's not misunderstood he's just simply the Stockton warrior
Love Nick. Definitely my favourite ever athlete never mind favourite fighter
Nick is by far one of my favorite fighters. But this is the problem with hero worship... we put people on pedastals. We expect them to be flawless and have our own opinions of how we think every component of their character or personality needs to be. That's not fair and its stupid.
Nick is a great fighter. Why do people have to get down on him for not being an Ali or Sonnen or McGregor behind the mike? Why do people get down on him for having a temper and emotion against his opponents? That's just so douchey.
The guy is a *real* guy, who just happens to have the balls to get in a cage and throw hands, and he does it very well. He's got flaws, but he's a good dude, that has a lot of character, loyalty, honor, etc. Sure, admire fighters for what they can do, but stop with the fucking unfair hero worship of these fighters and realize they are real people and many of them just want to be treated as such.
Well said.
Kevin Joubert hes probably like super fried on edibles and just trying to come back to reality at first lol.. hes a boss man.
SeekerofTruth29 And for you.. much respect.. samurai champloo is legendary :)
lol indeed it is.Respect.
It's crazy how he gave this interview 4 years ago yet it's more relevant now than ever. The UFC looks more and more like WWE by the day. Fake drama and pre-fight beefs are now more common than not.
oh my god you can tell it feels really awkward for Nick when he doesn't understand a question or doesn't listen to it and then tries to answer. He's thinking "oh shit what he say? " You can see how he's moving his leg up and down and how he's moving his hands and fingers cause he's just thinking umm wtf do i say lol. Happens to all of us. Especially when a teacher asks me a question and i didn't listen to what it was and every student is just staring.
I miss this Nick Diaz
The guy just wants to fight! He isn't interested in all the bs questions he's a fighter and what do fighters do? Fight, you've got to admire that about him.
i can listen to nick talk all day he lives and breathes mma and works harder than anyone
People always say nick loves to fight . Nick always says he doesn't. You can tell he really enjoys triathlons by the change in his demeanor when he starts talking about them . It's almost as if nick feels he has to fight.pretty fucking intense dude.
the chick in the white top behind nick is bang tidy
allister mcallister lmfao she is just about a 5 mate beer goggles ?
Talk about the triathlon he opens right up lol. He’s the greatest!
dude looks fed up. like he just wants to be alone.
Thank you Nick for sharing your story I really appreciate it and I love listening to you speak 😃🙏🤗 and I hope you have an awesome day
nick's real different now, this was that dude felt for him a lot. happy he doing good tho.
Stop blowing bubbles Brett
He is sooo anxious in this! Fight or flight man, I know the feeling. Watch him fidget and the leg bouncing...ufc needs a better set up for this kind of thing, the chair didnt even have arm rests! Lol poor guy, love the old Nick tho
@Marf mellow social anxiety. I have it and it absolutely sucks
@@pavannair6469 me too!
He have social anxiety and depression i have problems like this too and its not easy to handle stuff like this. Nick is legend.
@@ufcufc4815 you can clearly see the symptoms. Lack of eye content, constant fidgeting, shakiness in voice, long break from answering questions. I have social anxiety aswell and this are exactly the symptoms I go through
@@pavannair6469 yup same here. How do you deal with your social anxiety or like are you kinda lost right now like I am?
@@turro9875 in some places it has improved for me, like in school for example. I'm alot more talkative in class compared to before when I was very shy and quiet. But I struggle when it comes to small talk, like when someone says hello and how are you I struggle with that at times. I also struggle when it comes to public speaking. I haven't done much to deal with it, but I really wanna coz I hate it.
Nick had a lot of respect when this was shot, after he retired BJ Penn. Even his critics could not deny he was a great fighter then.
I love Nick Diaz, his social anxiety makes him human and seems he s like our s
5:40 Okamoto starts feelin that speech from Nick
he's like... im a fighter not a spokesman. I get where hes coming from but, media is money Nick!! He's always clear about not doing well @ school, hence why he loves to fight, he dont see fighting as a 'sport' its a way of life #KillOrBeKilled #DiazBrosCrushSkulls he's such an honest guy
ha ha he's in your face straight up zoned out, they (reporters) never had his attention to lose!! #100% #RealDude ☆
Nick and his brother Nate are the best. Period.
just awesome guy.
I would love to stockton slap the hater in the background
Love this guy 💯
Straight talk,no bs.Gotta love it. :)
he's a dead set good bloke, i get real good vibes off nick diaz, just down to earth
I give him mad credit... I have social anxiety and I don't think I'd be able to sit with all those cameras.
We can tell nick doesn’t like being around cameras and crowds
Idk about anxiety, but he sure as hell ain't happy
It’s social anxiety no doubt. His body language says it all and I’d know because I have it😭
Anxiety...
One more question guys. 5 questions later
He’s kinda like the James dean of MMA
You are spot on my brother. Very observant!
GSP is pure honesty and classic professionalism. Nick Diac sees that as a game or a joke. I feel that difference. I feel Nick. They wuna say he trying to act hard. It's just because he doesn't wuna deal with petty drama-benders.
nick is a baller he is the game f#=k all the backround noise!
nick diaz should be exempted from doing interviews. he honestly looks so overwhelmed by the media. it looks like torture
Nick we love ya Mate Respect 🙏
I agree totally!! i was just thinking that as i read your comment. He is OBVIOUSLY not just annoyed but seriously mentally effected badly by it..its wrong.
I like the way he is asked a question, then rants, digresses then doesn't answer the question. If you think about it it's a clever way to fuck with someone and leave them totally confused. I often did it to teachers at school i hated. He does it every time someone asks him something trivial. When asked a straight sports question, he replies straight up. He's there to fight, not talk about trivial shit. People think he's dumb, the guys a genius. People get payed to talk, now that's fuckin dumb.
Nick not a celebrity. He's a born fighter. Why does everyone expect him to have people skills?
8:50 that real nick diaz. this was my favorite fighter. now everyone claim they a diaz fan after that mcgregor shit. and nick changed alot. he got over the social anxiety and now acts and jokes around like some of the dudes i dont like. but its all good when shit goes good you change and the real goes away and you adapt to life. he goes to parties and promotes and shit but wish he would still keep it 100 like this.
This video (before the condit fight) proves that he called the whole decision factor, thats why he melted down after...
go diaz!!!
@sissisaona no people are just different hes naturally shy and uncomfortable in front of a camera he does his work in the octagon hes more at home in a fight than with a camera in his face
Obviously has anxiety (as do I) and it's frustrating as all hell to see him have to answer dumbass ?'s from people who do not have a clue how an amazing fighter like himself is can just be 100. That's all he knows. And when you fight its kinda funny; why would he NOT do all he can to HATE the guy who is on the other side wanting to rip his head off?!?! He's a street fighter; he enjoys the brawl like they all should and I'm sure do deep down even if they claim not too.
a professional organization which promotes fights not a talkshow.
listen to this at half speed
Hes a great fighter, I wish he would come back to UFC soon. It's not important to me what he does does outside the ring, I only care about what he does inside the ring
@rockcityaudio Why don't you use spaces after punctuation?
The goat
The speed bag video :D, enough said
nick diaz is a genius
I read somewhere that he is super smart, guess you have to be to be a top BB in BJJ. He gets frustrated because he doesnt know how to articulate his feelings and thoughts. He sure knows how to in the cage though. Cool brothers great fighters wish them both the best.
Nick has no problem speaking his mind. Nick's only problem is having zero patience for bull-shit fucking questions.💯
You know what i'm saying because i don't know what i'm saying, you know what i'm saying
Marchoupi stfu
Damn diaz really hates those cameras you can tell how uncomfortable he was there.
he has anxiety being in front of the camera. one of his coaches and dietitian mentions it on a vlog.
You dont think they might be like that anyway. I know what you mean, and I see the same social awkwardness in my self and my friends when we are stoned, but I think alot of people who wants to smoke, isn't the most social people the begin with. Social people probably prefers alcohol like 9 out of 10 times, imo.
he was eyeballing Nick the whole video like he was tough or something. Nick would smash his face in a fight.
Is that brett okomoto in the background 😂
He's himself. Listen and learn
4:13 I bet Nick doesn't respect Condits "baby leg-kicks" style of fighting anymore lol
Not anxiety just looks like he was going through some shit at the time.
nick fkn diaz everyone.
He is just a little nervous dealing with all the media.. Give the guy a break if he doesn't want to answer questions he shouldn't have to..
Doesn't even have social anxiety said before he's stressed out getting ready going to war. Watch interview other then before fight he's a different guy
that guy an the orange t shirt is like a fly that wont leave... hes got this complete AWKWARD ora around him... if nick saw em walking on the street hed probably knock em out.. dana probably sent him there so nick knocks him out an gets suspended from the fight..
*As.*
*Real.*
*As.*
*It Gets.*
"this isnt soccer"
favorite line
That brunette leaning on the background wow! She’s ❤beautiful
09.12 Nick gets distracted by girls. hahah legend.
War diaz!!!! you should of fought GSP and give us a show , but hopefully you make a comeback
5:33 everyone else is crazy. story of my life
@espnmma look at Bret looking like a level 3 skinner
while overeem got 9 months for steroids. Thats fair
hes finicky because hes not high. You know those ppl that get paranoid and feel weird when they smoke weed, hes like that when hes sober. plus he cant seem to just ignore the weird ppl standing around. they are def weird but i could probably ignore them. guess he cant. so what.
im a pot head and the diaz bros make me proud to be one!
@6:35 diaz is legit af
Mr.Bubblegum needs his face punched in for staring lol
Just look at him 1:14
DaggerFaller isn’t that the guy who interviews for espn now? Something Mokoto or something like that"?
100% he looks so gay @him
@@nordanshat6613 he looks like he's staring at him aggressively...like he thinks he can kick his ass or something...idk...his whole demeanor..
@@krystiangorski6201 yes man
@@laurenc5058 lol yeah, Brett Okamoto.
might be because there are 20 cams on him, it's not like a job interview (1on1) there are people standing around him, snaping shots of him i know that i would be like that 4sure
*craving
overeem came out voluntarily about a substance he took that he thought might have been illegal and it turns out it was, they gave him hella suprise roid test and he passed all of them
😍
I have no prob with weed and I understand why people do it.. eg. to relax after work.. However I used to smoke and have a lot of mates that still do and IMO a lot of the time people that smoke a lot of weed are very awkward when they are and aren't stoned. People say there aren't side-effects but if you ask me it does effect your whole personality especially in front of an audience. I honestly think that is why Nick and Nate are so awkward in front of the camera
that's nick diaz 24/7 though
Pure Mexican blood
I have social anxiety issues and its a horrible thing to have to deal with. I don't know how Nick manages it tbh. It's a bitch.
Hes not awkward cos hes stoned.. Yea some peopke can be socially awkward when stoned..but not all of us
I think he just thinks about his answers before going on the record
He's looking down constantly, He seems bothered, He's constantly looking to the side, he's fidgety. If Nick just killed somebody, then I could understand his mannerisms....but it's an interview about a sporting event. Kinda strange.
Social anxiety yadadada,
Seriously people! stop psycho analyzing the poor guy..
"crazy ? crazy ?" the word was over used by this crazy guy
