The way he took care of his brother; like a father; is a credit to his character and his entire family. When asked Nate if he faced bullying, beat up and picked on as a kid he just gave the most genuine smile " No, I had a big brother". That's love.
But you know that Nick was bullied hard, he did it have a dad that was there for him or a big brother. Touching because we all know Nick was protecting Nate from the Real world which Nick was battling
@@jaythewineoisseur346 true, but to be fair the true victim is the kid who thought picking on nick diaz would end well for him. probably not the person you want to piss off.
I hope the like count pauses here. 209 life
Ariel: You ever been bullied?
Nate: Hell naw, I have a big brother.
That shit was real
Dam when nate said those words it made me feel some type of way. I'm a big brother myself and I never knew how much my little brother looks up to me. Definitely gonna continue to grow as a man and keep getting better.
Robbie asking Nick if he is good… in life is the most beautiful thing. Still tears me up.
Facts that's why robbie is one of my fav fighters ever
It’s also sad cuz who knows if Robbie is good. These guys get paid dogshit money and Robbie was making a teachers salary to put on one of the best performances ever against rory but it took a big piece from him
Because the Diaz and Lawler are made of the same cloth. Robbie came in the UFC at 18 and hes still fighting. Probably because thats what he do. So they probably understand each other on an other level.
And when he asked that you can hear nick say no I’m not. Damn it’s so messed up how the ufc and Dana took advantage of these guys and never even paid them a legitimate amount. Nick was a more real Conor mcgregor way before Conor was around. They didn’t want someone from the hood to be the face of the ufc and Nick was just to real. They kept him down and ruined his prime because of thc. When the man he fought was on steroids and got not even a year
@@noicemate9111 Dana is an utter Cnut, I’ll be having jelly and once cream when he dies, can’t come too soon
The way the UFC turned their back on these brothers really got to me. Both phenomenal fighters, tough lives, being put through hell just to do what they love.
It’s not the first time UFC is doing them dirty
Dana White is mafia.
I never watch U.F.C it’s nothing like the old days. Now it’s screw the fighters unless they kiss butt.
@@OnePiece-pt6zeFrancis Ngannou
The didnt turned their back.... they never been on their side guys.
They didn't wanted a real ones becoming Champion.
So sad how the UFC treated these two. The ending was absolutely heartbreaking.
Ha ha, you fell for the story.
Learning more about both of the Diaz’s childhood and life makes Nate’s win in Conor v Nate 1 so much more satisfying! So much respect for the Diaz brothers.
True
True before it felt like nate defying the odds, watching back after this it felt like i was watching him stand up to his bully
When I first saw the Nate vs Conor 2 fight I thought Nate won...
I watched it back recently and still feel Nate won that as well
@@jasonv6319 I can see why you think that but really conor and mates stories are not that different. Stockton is hard place to grow up but the same for conor in Crumlin Dublin its known as one of the worst parts of Ireland. He was relentlessly buried growing up its why he got into fighting. I don't see Connor as the bully he just decided he would be the hammer and not the nail its the same as nate.
@@LewReviews I'm from tallaght Dublin, this part of the city is fucking rough, in my old neighborhood just last week a youngfella stabbed and killed his two sisters and brother who were kids. My ma now lives in another spot around the corner where a man a few months ago was shot 3 times while walking with his 4 month old son in a pram. I've seen some bad things and had some bad things done to me and my friends. Its inevitable that some nasty shit happens to you or someone close at some point I think.
I say all that just to emphasize that Connor really had come from a fucking hard place, I actually train in the old gym by coincidence, I can only imagine back in the day, the desperation of wanting it and being one of the very few Irish people trying against all odds to get into the UFC and have an impact, almost nobody here would have been in his corner to support his dreams it wouldn't have even been on anybody's radar as a possibility, most would probably just laugh at him. Watching his rise trough the UFC was insane and I got on fairly early and it was a part of the reason I decided a few years ago to start training that instead of other sports.
I love the Diaz brothers too and I can imagine the suffering they went through in Stockton must have been fucking treacherous. I hate this "Diaz brothers are stupid bleeders" or "mctapper is a bitch" shit. All 3 of them are animals who climbed to the top and ended up pitted against one another. Even if you dont like a fighter you should have respect for all people who will get in a cage against another human to try and break eachother apart. Im sick of the casual fan bullshit where the pre fight press conference is where they decide if they like someone or not, thats all a show.
When Robbie asked Nick if he was okay in life, that shit gave me chills
I can't believe it man.. I never saw or heard that before
Robbie is such a great guy
In the full video he asks Nick if they're paying him enough for the fight. Humanity at it finest
It was beautiful to see that shit go full circle 😔
When was this?
The fact that Nick still calls Nate his baby/little brothers even though they are adults and built a reputation of being badasses/gangsters.
This is sad almost brought tears to my eyes. Nick reminds me of my older brother who passed away. He kept me out of trouble and guided me with wisdom. Although his life was hard and more hectic he went out of his way to make sure I was always okay and that’s exactly what nick does. Nate Diaz’s goal is probably to make nick proud and I’m sure he has done that and more.
Man fuck. I feel u on that. The parts where he was worried about Nate hanging with the wrong crowd made me think of my own brother. Nicks heart was too big Fr Fr
God bless you bro, I lost my little brother 10 years ago. Still think of him every day.
As an older sibling i can tell you we don't want or need you to make us proud we just want you to be good in life as well as in your head & heart. Truly sorry you lost your main 1 my heart goes out to you, i, from 11yo, raised my baby sis (34 lol) & we're so close. I can't imagine losin her so soon, you're clearly a very strong person mentally as well emotionally cus you wouldn't be here otherwise so pls believe me when i say how very proud your brother is. Take care & i hope at the time of readin you're doin well.
There is so much behind Nick. It's like he has a sense of responsibility that he can't let go, and he feels that so many things are his fault. It's tough to be that person.
You can see how heavy it weighs on his heart, it's hard to watch.
Being the oldest child can be hard.
I feel with Nick. That sense of duty and responsibility he has for Nate is truly one of a kind especially when they’re in this line of work. Their mindset are complete polar opposite when it comes to fighting in the UFC & its so interesting that Nick still treats Nate like he’s still 12 years old in Highschool protecting him from all the bullies.
And I feel Nate is doing what he does to make sure in the end it’s all worth it for both of them .
It's so hard to watch, and resonates as strongly as it does, because when it's real you'll FEEL it
brett: “why are you here this week?”
nick: “it’s just what i do.”
brett: “so why are you still doing it?”
nate: “it’s what i do.”
that hit hard. forever love the diaz brothers. ❤️
Yeah.
@@dipankar.katakyread that in Nate’s voice
Man these guys life worth a movie
Nice doc
Legit shed tears when Robbie ask him if he was good in life .. nick got that pain he’ll never speak on
Man the part where Robbie asked if he was doing good got me. They go to war with each other, and without hesitation goes into friend mode after he knows something’s not right. Respect.
Yea. Robbie is a beast with a great heart bro
They both have respect for each other. Nothing is personal just business
Both true warriors
That's the part that hit me hard. He looked out of it. Physically and mentally. He's so damn tough and the fact he didn't wanna get up said it all, he's tired. He's fought all his life. Man I love the Diaz brother that part made me really sad :( hope Nick is doing well.
@@that1kidjr He's tired and done with it sure... But he doesn't give up; he takes it like a man and gets what he needs to do done. Hard man, bro. Hard man with a gentle soul.
Damn this deserves to be on ESPN. People that were too young to remember them or missed out need to see this. Even people that do remember them, great job!
This won't be on espn. You think disney is going to promote this? The ufc has sold out so hard.
Nobody watches espn, everyone watches YoutTube
this legit exposes the ufc. ufc doesnt want this. also he prob makes more money on yt
It wont, UFC gotta save face
Man F--- ESPN
The Diaz brother's were and are still truly special. It's a shame how they gave nick a 5yr suspension ova weed, and making him miss his prime years of fighting. Much respect to the Diaz brother's..
Shows Dana’s power over the Nevada athletic commission and the UFC money submission of any sense of fairness towards their employees. Diaz bros. Winners, Dana to be remembered as the loser in every story. He sold his soul for the money🎉
the identical and back to back “it’s what i do” hit way harder than it should’ve. outstanding doc
Saw a quote a while back and I don’t know it word for word. “Diaz brothers don’t lose, they either win or run out of time”
GSPs coach Zahabi said this.
They haven't won anything ?
@@jayeff8646 Nick was the strikeforce champion for a good time.
@@jayeff8646 the uncontrollable hate is strong with this one.
@@jayeff8646 ...or a Supreme Troll. Either way, u win
U can really see the PTSD and emotional scars these guys hold
When a big celebrity gets PTSD and trauma they talk about it and make a whole PR about it.
but sadly this sport and the the place they grew up at is so ruthless, these bros had to be ruthless. Its actually sad how misunderstood they are.
@@RagingWB These dudes live life just biting their mouth piece and pushing forward. Real shit
@@ahncisneros98 so true, they roll with the punches, thing is sure they’ve had it shit but they know they can’t stop moving forward that’s when shit really hits hard, and this happens in ALL walks of life, they’ve just had the shit stick, sound like some real cunts, would def smoke a bowl with them though I’m sure they can afford better shit than me 😂
@@ahncisneros98 real men need more like ‘em 💯
The Diaz Brothers are 100% certified LEGENDS in the fight game!!! and they might not even be done yet, they’ve potentially still got more to add to their legacy…. In my opinion they’ve had just as much of an impact on the story of the UFC and MMA in general as absolutely anyone else has….
What a PHENOMENALLY made video. Wow dude. Thank you so much for making this. I've really started getting into the UFC and this is the kind of "Lore" or whatever that makes me so full inside. These two are legendary. Thanks so much, Patrick!!!!
Thanks Adam! 💪
@@PatrickGaviafor real bro...that sh#t hits me so bad... in a good way thou.
This is élite video and edit skills mate btw.
Thanks for your tribute to the realest bros in fighting history.🙏💜
Great comment ☝🏼☝🏼
Man this was an emotional roller coaster. I knew Diaz brothers had it hard, but this was an entire different story. I appreciate your efforts, man. This was so great.
Story of 2 fighters. So much respect for these 2
“It’s what I do.” That quote right there perfectly encapsulates the Diaz Brothers. Why do they never pull out of fights? Why do they fight the hardest opponents possible? Why do they have an unstoppable will? It’s just, what they do.
They do whats necessary is the direct meaning
26:06
Just like Guts
Lol Nate pulled out of the fight against Dustin poirier dummy
Yeah, and being pretty braindead
It's not the words, the punches or the wins that we remember. It's the gift of witnessing a man give his life, blood and soul for something and put it all on the line. The Diaz brothers will be cemented in combat sports history for eternity.
Two brothers against the world. How can you not root for these guys
This was a very emotional film. I understand Nick more now and sympathize with him. The Diaz brothers are legends. I hope they find peace and wealth and more success. It ain't over yet. 209.
Me too brother I was never a big Diaz brother's fan until I started to understand the torment and success at the same time. NICK is a great person and the UFC made him out to be a bully and a bad guy I love this sport with everything inside me but I'm starting to hate the company if that makes sense and I'm a proud man but this made me cry like a new born baby but DAMM am I glad I watched it because it was beautifully made
Diaz brother's conduct themselves as a response to the way the rest of the world has treated them. The fact that they built the legacy they have is a testament to how much heart is in both.
Best fucking comment as it's a BIG FUCKING FACT.. RESPECT
There ya go 👌
"In order to love fighting, I have to hate it. There is no love in this without hate and if you ain't there till you hate it then goodluck loving this shit" - Nick Diaz. That is not a fighter, that is a fucking philosopher. So happy that he is now teaching kids and doing something that probably makes him happy. I hope Nick is doing good
Nick and Nate Diaz two of the most real guys in the UFC, always 100% authentic, stayed true to themselves and became mega stars, respect ✊🏽 🌟🫡
That’s why they in my top 5 favorite fighters. They are so real and I can relate to them as other can.
@@USCaiden 🙌
I have watched this documentary so many times, but one thing that stood out to me was the brotherhood that Nick and Nate have for each other, the unconditional love that no other brothers at their young age had. They aren't just two brothers at odd with each other, they are like father and son. Nick helped guide his little brother through the troubled life of Stockton, while Nate become their financial support for his brother while he is in his probation. Their love and care for one another is thicker than blood; through their own anxiety, struggle and frustration, they became something special together. They became icons, legends and most importantly, a family at the end of the day. Through good times and bad times, I wished nothing but good luck to the Diaz brothers. I'll be waiting to the day they inducted to the Hall of Fame. God bless their heart and soul!
The Mighty Mouse one and this one are off the charts amazing
@@noicemate9111 what is the Mighty Mouse one called ?
Fuk the hall of fame.... The diaz brothers are too good for that bs
Other than maybe one of the 2 Diaz Brothers themselves, nobody could've said it any better then you just did.
After watching this like 5 times, I just wanna take a minute to say thank you for making a quality documentary about 2 brothers that I’ve been watching fight for over half of my life. These two got me into running and swimming years ago, which in turn changed my whole life. I just want to say thank you for telling a story that needed to be told. I hope that somebody else in a dark place out there will come across these 2 in this well made video and be inspired as well. It’s a story that deserves telling and I’m glad you took the time.
Swear this video is a great representation of who the Diaz brothers really are.
yep. real as real can be.@@kolkolkolve6326
THIS SHOULD BE NOMINATED!!!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Yo, Pat, why you cutting onions here bro. This was the most beautiful doc that I saw of yours.
Onions are good for you 🧅
When Nate said he will fight forever that shit put a tear to my eye man. Nate and nick are some of the only guys that are true fighters. No gimmicks or acting.
@@ActionAdam wish I had a brother like Nate 😂
Made me tear up.....MMA would not be what it is today without the Dias Brothers!! Long live Nick and Nate Diaz!!!
i’m crying as i’m typing this man
I’ve seen like 8 men cry and I’m 40.
So good job.
ngl, same.
I loved the 2 lugheads before ; now I feel compassion & empathys for them
Two OG's of the UFC, they will be missed !
They were real to themselves didn't bow down to Dana so he fucked them over while he sucked all the cash out
It’s funny to cry about guys getting a title shot after beating Nate…maybe if Nate won those fights he’d have less to cry about ???
My late brother and I had an incredibly strong bond. Growing up in a bad neighborhood he like Nick to Nate always looked out for me. I wonder sometimes what would've become of me without that blanket of protection he provided. Watching from 15:29 to 16:10 just hit home and weaken'd me. These two guys are blessed to have each other and I wish them a long and fruitful life together.
Thanks for sharing Eddie - sorry for your loss
Never thought a video about the Diaz bros would make me cry this much. Fucking beautiful man. Cannot wait for their documentary.
seeing Nick be there and be so proud of his brother at 279 had me in my feelings..I've always had a soft spot in my heart for the Diaz bros..I'm close to Stockton so I'll always support them..but their love for each other is really inspiring and special man.. Patrick always has me emotional with his videos
I live in the UK and was born in South Africa. I will always cheer these guys on. Tremendous human beings.
Emotional rn you say? Like Khabib would've said.. send location.
@@dopedrums lol
Lathrope?
Fr? I'm close too. Before we moved to Fresno we used to live in Sacramento. I was born in San Diego like my brothers though. So even though we didn't live in Stockton it was always just a 1-3 hour drive away depending on where we lived. Plus, there is a fair amount of Hmong people in Stockton too I think so it's even cooler Nick and nate diaz are from Stockton! They are so cool
I remember getting Nick's autograph on a blockbuster receipt in Lodi in the early 2000's. I've had many instances where I've been in the company of him and his brother Nate. I'm telling you, first hand, that the negative publicity is all a fucking sham. Those dudes are of the most respectful and respectable I've ever met. They are true martial artists. And they are the best fighters that have ever entered the octagon.
I liked this video. Someone took the time to do the research to give these gentleman some of the respect they deserve. The respect they have earned.
Love and Respect from the 209.
Lp
I couldn't agree with you more about Nate and Nick and the media's portrayals. I've met them over a dozen times running into them when I lived in Tracy/Modesto area. My favorite instance when I ran into Nate at BJ's in Stockton. My Aunt and I were there eating dinner right after a Stockton thunder game. I saw Nate with a bunch of people eating I waited for him to finish before I walked over and asked him if we could take a picture with him. He asked me where we were sitting I showed him he walked right over and sat down with us and took the picture and after that he spent about 10 minutes with us talking about random stuff but his engagement the whole time was so cool.
I have always, always loved them both... long before Nate/Conor 1. People used to talk so much sh!t and it used to drive me fkn nuts. I’m so glad they now get the love and respect they have always deserved
Diaz brothers are heroes, truly unfortunate beginnings, bright glory, but a tragic life full of adversity. Truly stunning men, forever MMA GOATs
The Diaz brothers were like comic book hero’s to me. Larger than life.
Some fighters showboat but some were just born to knuckle up for life. Stockton MoFo 👊🏼
15:25: the pain in Nick's voice and eyes was palpable when he was speaking about his brother. Then when Ariel was reading that statement to Nate, he seemed just as upset as his brother. That honestly hurts to watch. I wish my brother and I were anywhere near as close to each other as the Diaz brothers are. That's a next-level version of loyalty and love. If nothing else, they will always have each other, and that's a gift that many people could only dream of. Every time Nate Diaz is interviewed post fights, he always shouts out his brother and calls him the best fighter on earth.
I clocked that right away too. My brother and I's relationship went so south in the last few years to not exchanging a word for a few months already. As a big brother, it's beautiful to see their connection.
❤️
@@shonthebonbon that's sad bro
Fuck Dana for that fr
This is the best definition of brotherly love and sticking with family that anyone could ever see. That's why I've been a fan of both of these guys since I first saw them.
It truly is. I have a younger brother, and we came from a broken household, so the Diaz story really hits home.
They give a lesson in brotherhood
Trueee. I have 2 younger brother's too. There's nothing I would not do for them.
I wish my brother cared even a little bit about me... My brother is the most self centered tool in the world. Now, I just don't give AF.. I'll be something without him.
@@carltonpenaloza1395 I really think most homes are broken my dude. Some just hide it better.
I've been in Jiu-Jitsu my entire life I've always recognized the dedication and family of the Diaz brothers. They are gold they are icons... guys like Connor are just schlubs and showboats
"There's things I could do but that's not gonna work out I might as well just go out and take my punches" that line really hits hard ! Being from where they are from brakes you and the way the UFC treats them they lost faith in the business so they accept the fact they are only side characters to the machine.
This documentary got me a lot more emotional than I thought. I grew up with self confidence issues and it was tough to deal with because I looked to my brother for someone to confide in, but my relationship with my brother was rough because he dealt with a lot of issues with getting bullied. We played a lot of sports but never fell in love with any of them until he found wrestling when he was in 7th grade and I was in 5th grade. The next year he got me to start doing it, I was overweight and my relationship with him was close to its worst, but that first year of wrestling taught me more than I could have ever expected. It wasn't until my first year of middle school when I started also playing pop warner that I lost my weight and I really started to get close with my brother. The way Nick dealt with bullying and wanted to protect his little brother from pain in life and how Nate worked towards, idolized, and wanted the best for his brother is how my brother and I relationship evolved through the extreme struggles we faced in family, life and competition. I also got two little brothers that taught me what it feels like to see someone you truly love learn the struggles of life, and it taught me how amazing it is to help them find what they love in life, and teach them how to face life healthily. The Diaz's brothers story is one that I view as one of the most tragic, misunderstood, and inspirational in the history of sports, and its not even finished. I related to their story more than anything I've ever known and I think everyone should understand and learn from their outlook on life because they are some of the most misunderstood and underappreciated people in sports. This was incredibly difficult to write as I was writing through tears, but this is the first time I've ever felt the need to express myself like this in a comment for anything ever. I also wanted to ad just how much wrestling and combat sports saved me. I had so many personal issues, and I still do, but now I know who I am, I know who the person I want to be is, I know the mentality I want to have towards life and the loved ones around me, and I have my brothers and my love for combat sports/martial arts that stemmed from wrestling to thank for that.
God bless you man im glad your at peace bro
I’m glad you took the time to type that out and I hope it helped you and it helps others that can relate to your struggles. This video was much heavier than I expected and then I read you comment. Fucking onion ninjas trying their hardest to get in here.
Beautifully expressed sir. That self reflection is a wonderful thing. That was great to read
That's awesome bro. I have a story just like yours only different. But share the same love for combat sports and the Diaz Brothers. It's great to see Nate shine. Him and Nick are both something special. For sure.
I feel you brother I've faced the same shit...I think that's why we live and die by their side...I cant imagine my life without them...the 209 mentality got me through some tough times.
Diaz For Life.
Man it got me emotional. This is the best doc I've seen on Diaz brothers. Big props to you Patrick. Hope you keep making good videos like this.
Somebody really needs to make a proper movie on Diaz brothers.
Willing to bet there will be a diaz bros movie someday but will prob be something our grandkids will enjoy and wonder what it was like to watch them fight
Facts bro
I'm thinking k of writing it myself and could direct it how it needs to be done!! 🙂
Nick is such a humble and respectable man
thought it cheesy to release the vid right when nate had his last fight, but man, patrick's work is on another level.. almost tears in my eyes by the end... ur storytelling is almost as legendary as Nick's life/career. keep'em coming and wish both u&nick find the success u guys deserve
This needs to be longer and played at a film festival or in theaters. I literally cried all the way through.
Yea I agree. It really was special.
For reals. I'd take my 2 brothers with me to watch this.😢
My favorite thing about Nate's last fight is that I haven't heard anybody hating on or disrespecting Tony, it's like both sides didn't want to see Tony take a loss, but also REALLY needed to see Nate end on a win. He couldn't have gone out in a better way. Much love for the Diaz brothers ❤️
Did Ferguson take the bout on short notice? Or was he on the card already. Missed most of the lead up because of work
Sorry for the dumb question
@@Clemsoncrawler362 I don't think he was already on the card. I believe he took it on short notice
@@Clemsoncrawler362 I guess you could call it short notice because the fights all got switched around
@@Clemsoncrawler362 just look up khamzat ruins card for full story
This made me cry. I love those boys, wish them happiness and success with whatever they choose. Thanks for putting the video together. Job well done
Thanks for putting together these documentaries. You make fans appreciate the fighters and their sacrifices so much more. 🙏🏻
I really appreciate the way you made this documentary. Not a whole lot of you talking and your opinion, just a lot of videos of the brothers and letting them tell their story as it progressed through the years. Really well done!
exactly. fuck opinions. we want the real shit
Patrick, you affectively captured the pain and difficulties the Diaz brothers went through in this digestible and appealing documentary format--just excellent cinematography from start to finish. I want to emphasize, the utilization of the piano music playing in the background really does combine all of the elements into one cohesive structure that painted a simultaneously sad and beautiful story into one. 💯

Well said.
Best one yet, Patrick!! 🙌 Yhis one gripped the heart strings and hit every emotion. You've got immense talent and look forward to seeing many more of these.
I have never seen anything better than this video ever on youtube. This is incredible.
That is why I decided to comment on something for the first time in my life. We need more videos like this.
"I got into this sport so I don't have to sit in a room with people like this."....
Omg..🥺🥺🥺😢 that woke me up right there. On many levels. I've always followed these guys and I already love the Diaz brothers...but this video hits hard...their story is great...awesome movie their life story is.
Every time I hear Nick say “That’s my baby brother”! Shit gets to me. Nate is blessed to have a bro like that. 🤜🏼🤛🏼
I don’t know about yourself but I am also blessed to have a Big Bro who thinks of me just like Nick thinks of Nate, it’s something special man and reading your comment made me think about just how lucky I am.
I once ended up at a point of no return, mentally and physically.
If it hadn’t been for my Big Bro I would not be writing this reply to your comment. Blessed is an understatement!
Peace my friend.
I never had a brother oldest if two younger sisters
This is the best doc I’ve seen on the Diaz bros. Amazing work.
2 living legends.
Phenomenal documentary
Feel blessed to have lived to see the diaz era. Real gangsters never quit
I dunno if these guys are gangsters. They are family. They don't hurt ppl in the streets for clout or money. They learned a discipline and competed fearlessly and with no frills. Gangsters are cowardly scum that prey on the weak and use violence for the sole purpose of money and power. These boys are martial artists and defend right.
They only identifies as gangsters for selling, both are great human beings besides being tough and talented martial artists
Lmao I see what you did there
Came into MMA way too late to know this much about Nick, that shit is heart breaking. I never saw him fight (live) until the Lawler fight, but his interviews made me a fan basically immediately. Nate never really got me in that way, I always thought it was weird how everyone kept referring to him as 'the realest' when it seemed like he sorta tried too hard, but Nick resonated immediately. Now having heard both of their stories, I have immense respect and empathy for Nick. I have a lot more for Nate too, and a bit more understanding why he is the way he is. I really like Tony, I wish Nate did that to Chimaev as the biggest fuck you in history on his way out, but I'm glad they both got to fight a legend. Hope Nick finds happiness, I pretty much felt shit the entire day after listening to this, guy seems like a one in a million good dude but life keeps shitting on him.
💯💯
Nick seems tremendous, great words you spoke and my empathy for them both, especially for Nick went through the roof aswell.
I think I’ve found my fav MMA channel. I’ve watched 3 videos and they’re legit some of the best productions I’ve ever watched on RUclips. Big ups man
I've watched this so many times. Amazing work on this one !!!
Watching nicks story and his impact to Nate makes me emotional man. I was nowhere near the big brother I should’ve been to my little brother when we was kids.
me too man. i wish i coulda been more like nick to my little brother
Only way we can make ip for that is to have sons and be a good father to them, and guide our eldest sons to be that to our youngest sons.
As that "little brother" who still isn't close to his big brother, I assure you man you've taught him far more than you or him ever realize. I'm only as mentally strong as I am because of my brothers influence. Just 2 "street kids" from Toledo ohio. We might fight each other (and have on 4 occasions) but bet nobody touches him without me n vice versa. You may feel you shoulda done more as a big brother, but I bet if you asked him he'd say you did just fine. Big brothers always get the praise, little brothers get the pure toughness. You helped create a warrior by being a warrior yourself. Us little brothers just watched n learned before we ran with the ball ourselves. Stay up.
@@DaileyShorts thanks for the thought and kind words man. Wish you all the best.

There is NOTHING like this. This last week or two has been so heartwarming to see all the love go to 209 and those brothers and the army. Watching this growing up and through all the years, it makes be so grateful. I'm so happy to say I remember these. Even the in-between moments. I love MMA, and I love the community. Let's go!!
How about nate stopping Ferguson at two minutes and nine seconds left???? LEGENDARY SHIT
@@jamesdean333 nothing happens by accident that's what I'd like to think is our creator's sense of humour and homage because if there's a God he definitely loves MMA
@@neilmoore2726 facts
The 209 boy's are the REAL ONE'S!!!
Mma is the best shit in the world
This was beautifully done. Thank you for making this. 2 of the realest to ever do it.
There’s something beautiful in how Nate talks about nick, no weird pretense, no awkwardness, just pure respect and admiration
My younger brother was killed in a motorcycle accident in January, my only sibling. This is by far my favourite of Pat's documentaries and I really resonated with the dynamic shown here even though we weren't really from a similar background as Nick and Nate. I love you Derk
I'm grieving one of my best friend shot and killed just last night . And all I can think of is to train jiu-jitsu tonight . Better get dressed

Sorry to hear brahs, you'll see then in Valhalla.
We will all be reunited one day.
@@diego1776 RIP to your homie 🙏🏾 and dankus’ brother
Jesus Christ is our Lord and saviour! Praise the Lord. Amen.
Yeah except for that 0:11 shit lmao
Repent of your sins & place your faith in the LORD JESUS CHRIST. Life is short. Heaven and Hell is sure.
man I love nick Diaz and all his fights. I remember my grandpa re-watching UFC 47 in the living room and my grandpa telling how much he loved watching nick Diaz fight and he was one of his favorites, I think from that day Nick Diaz was my favorite fighter. I just remember trying to look up all his fights on the internet and watching them definitely had no one to watch at home unless I was at my grandparents house. My grandpa passed away a few months ago and I really wanted to put a old UFC 47 DVD in his casket but it wasn't going to get delivered in time... but man watching MMA and Nick just really brings back good memories of my grandpa.
Man, you had me in tears...
Respect for Diaz Brothers and I wish them all the best in life!!!
Seeing the brotherhood the brothers have makes me tear up. Everything they do is for each other.
Fail for each other. Clowns
💯 man. Blood in blood out ❤️ #209
Holy cow this was amazing! When Nick said he doesn’t have any friends it hurt so bad..it took everything not to cry..but thank god for that ending and him teaching at his school and finally being happy!!!!
He is actually lucky that he has a brother. I don’t have any friends either and no brother 😣

Why must I be born again

Only 36min and is the BEST investment one can make
Here is my short testimony
John 10:10
The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
Revelation 12:11
“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony”
I was guided to church May 15th 2016, God led me there, and had it all planned. Two elders sat at the back, I was by the back door able to make my escape if necessary. Never knew God, never read the Bible, never heard the clear Gospel till this Sunday evening prayer night. I was lead to All Nations that morning by the Lord. He guided me at 27 years old to take a leap of faith and granted me the gift of saving faith that Sunday evening when I humbly prayed with 3 elders and whole-heartedly accepted Christ into my life. The flood came down as unexplainable as it can be, the precious blood of Christ cleansing me. Amazing the guilt, the shame, the regret the pain all washed away in His precious blood.
WORTHY IS THE LAMB WHO WAS SLAIN; who wrote my name in the BOOK OF LIFE! Hallelujah
Wrote this poem in 10 minutes one night never read it until I woke up hours later in the morning!
Never has been changed or altered!
Blows my mind!
. .Bring my soul out of prison. .
Psalm 142:7
"Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the righteous shall compass me about; for thou shalt deal bountifully with me"
(Scripture that led me to put pen to paper that night at 2am)
“Bring my soul out of prison”
Examining life, from a better place at last
Looking into the mirror, mirror of the past
Choosing to submit, not knowing what was there
Did I know of a greater power? Did I even really care?
Running through my thoughts, searching but for what?
My soul imprisoned, will the doors all remain shut?
Plotting against me, the father of lies
Delighted in my sorrow, taking pleasure in my cries
Voices on the attack, keeping me in a hole
Heartache and agony inside, so I chose to numb my soul
Was blinded by darkness, was deceived; but how?
Was not capable to see then, what is so clear to see now
Was directed towards isolation, told I was all alone
Implying "you are your own master", "you can do it on your own"
Somewhere within, even certain it was a lie
Reaching down again, giving it another try
But my God is faithful, even when I am not
He was always there, me He never forgot
Walking through the darkness, a light starts to shine
With a voice calling out, son you are mine!
Softening a hardened heart, freeing an imprisoned soul
Erasing the shame the guilt, pulling me from the hole
By giving up control, proclaiming Jesus as Lord and Savior!
He took away those voices, negative thoughts and behavior
Bought by the blood of Christ, in full He paid my debt
Something to be grateful for, something to never forget
Lost and searching my whole life, not knowing what for
I now know Lord Jesus, He opens up the door
Through this door, lays a straight and narrow path
Salvation is mine! Trust in God; peace at last!
For He is "the way, the truth and the life"
In heaven with the Father, seated at the right
Wrapped in His robe of righteousness, embraced in perfect love
Unconditional love like this, truly comes from above
Out of prison came my soul, as miraculous as it can be
As His word states:
“And you shall know the truth,
And the truth shall make you free."

@@kingjamesfromthekingjamesbible hey times have hit us hard, i'm in the same situation. but there're always people in the same situation who would really like to meet you
@@halbertzod527 Yeah I’d love to have an awesome big bro like Nick, but I’ll take what life gives to me
@@kingjamesfromthekingjamesbible Life never gave you a brother because they know you can excel without one.
your work is really well done. Truly, thought I was done with MMA content on RUclips but I'm glad I found your channel. Cheers!
These brothers have an amazing bond
There is more to the Diaz Brothers than people will ever give them credit for and its a shame that the UFC didnt make the most of having them on the roster
It’s a shame this comment only has three likes
@@TheBagFumbler Right?
ufc did get the most of having them...but for the ufc not for the diaz.
@@zboub7025 I think the Diaz brothers could be 10x bigger if talking in popularity terms had the UFC and the people who run it, ie Dana, Fertitas and whoever runs the show now after buying the UFC understood what they were truly like. I highly doubt that Dana is as close to the Diaz brothers as he is to McGregor or Rousey or his other show ponys. i think if youre an MMA fan, you will never miss a Diaz fight, sure, they dont cross over to the mainstream like McGregor who attracts absolute cunts but shit, being a down ass fighter and putting on great fights has to mean something right? I do however think that the Diaz Brothers arent really interested in having 20m IG followers or being super famous, i guess what I wish is that the UFC made an effort to show us the real Diaz brothers instead of having this image of them being nothing but weed smoking dudes who talk shit and miss press conferences. Youre right though, the UFC made a shit tonne of money off of them so theyre happy
UFC made the most of them by far, they are easily the greatest gate keepers in UFC history
For those who don't know! escaping poverty and the home you grew up in is at times the most difficult uneasy feeling in a person.When anyone does get away into better,it's truly remarkable! The Diaz brothers are good success stories!! They show taking the long road pays in the end!
Respect to both the brothers 🦅🇺🇸🦅🏍
Escaping poverty is a peace of cake, escaping the psychological damage of growing poor in a broken home without any adult figure helping out, that’s the hard part.
these are fantastic. Great job, love the way you put it all together
This brought me to tears , these guys inspire me to be the best version of myself, Diaz Army Forever 💯
22:30 hearing Nick saying he has no real friends and that he’s having a hard time was really heartfelt. Then playing claire de lune man. Another great one Patrick!
Just goes to show you how heartbreaking this whole thing is. It’s not all glamorous as it’s presented to be. These guys are putting their life on the line for our entertainment and aren’t getting fairly compensated for it. you need someone smart around to help set up your retirement.
Dudes a fucking king but heavy is the head.
Nate’s love for his little brother is some of the most touching stuff I’ve ever seen. It’s beautiful.
*nick
Nick my boy but it really is
Yes I meant ‘ Nick’ not Nate. Thanks for just correcting me and not insulting my intelligence over a typo. Good man
I can’t thank you enough for uploading this.
You treated these men with respect and admiration, thank you for this video
What moves me the most is how they got each other’s backs. True brotherhood. Thanks for showing us that.
bruh when they both answered the same, on that last question "why do you come back" got me bad. these dudes were our literally childhood watching the ufc from its start. what a shame dana has done to this sport .
@@jax6632 sadly it’s just business, the brothers said it from the start, it’s all a front it look goods on tv but that’s about it, ain’t gonna lie I’ve stopped watching ufc didn’t even know dude had his last fight till I heard the results at work, kinda hurts I missed it, been on one championship for awhile now
Man what an amazing video, I actually got emotional towards the end, these guys have been through so much and have just followed their code for all their life. Lots of respect to them, they may not have been champions but they’re champions in life
nick was a strike force champ
Champions in life indeed
@@moawadalla1442 I know I know, I meant in the UFC
They’re the peoples champions. To me that’s worth more than anything. Much love to the Diaz Brothers. Forever in our hearts.
@@lukebroderick23 strike force was actually the better harder promotion at the time! All the ufc top talent including Nick came from strike force. Look it up! That’s why the ufc pulled their dirty stuff and ended up buying strike force once they ruined the company! They’ve done it many times over. UFC is a cancer that needs to be undone! The business of it I mean not the fighters!
Man. When Robbie asked "Are you good...in life. That's fucking different." I teared up. That's some heavy shit and I respect him so much for asking that question. Thank you for making this video; you've got my subscription.
Ive watched this video over and over. Brilliant job.
It's hard to watch this without being moved to tears, they've been through so much.
Love these two.
🙏same
@@randomstuff797 amen bro 🙏☝️
First time running into your channel, this mini documentary was on another level my man. Props to you. I'm ngl like a lot of others in the comments, I did get emotional towards the end of the vid, shows how powerful their lives and legacy were, and still are today.
Just running through all your videos man haven’t had one disappoint yet. Keep up the good work and great job in your selection of fighters
Thank you very much for this video my friend, big Diaz Brothers fan from France.
“It’s what I do” Damn, this whole thing had me in my feelings.
This was really well made. Props to you for actually really doing research and taking a different approach than everyone normally does with the Diaz brothers.
Catching a 4th wall water bottle in the face was a nice touch.
Man this was short, sweet, and well done. Bravo!
I couldn’t love these two men, more than I do! They are the epitome of this sport and the backbone of what it’s all about! All blessings to Nate and Nick!
Well said
💯💯
@@wefightofficial 💪🙌🙏
"You have to hate it to love it" an invaluable message. Im a ufc casual fan, and never understood the ❤ for these brothers until now. Well deserved.

Outstanding fight documentaries bro,keep up the good work.
Still my favorite of all your productions. Tears every time.
This is a masterpiece man! Insane tribute for Nick
Couldn't of said it better myself
