Michael Bisping says there’s no question that the Diaz brothers deserve a place in the UFC Hall of Fame.
Both widely popular amongst fans, Nick Diaz and Nate Diaz emerged as some of the biggest stars in UFC history.
Although neither fighter achieved UFC gold, Bisping thinks their impact on the sport has to be recognized.
“Do these guys deserve to be in the Hall of Fame? My God, of course. Without a shadow of a doubt. Without question,” Bisping said on his YouTube channel. “I say both of them. I think Nick Diaz over Nate Diaz certainly deserves to be there.
“Nate Diaz, of course, is a global sensation. The win over McGregor and the loss to McGregor, they were some of the biggest pay-per-views and people just love the guy. They love to watch him fight.”
Nate fought for the UFC lightweight title in 2014, but fell short against Benson Henderson. The Season 5 “Ultimate Fighter” winner holds notable wins over Conor McGregor, Donald Cerrone, Jim Miller, Anthony Pettis, and Tony Ferguson. Diaz most recently partook in a big boxing match against Jake Paul in August, losing the bout by unanimous decision.
Nick didn’t quite have the success his younger brother Nate had in the octagon, but he held major titles in other organizations. Diaz is a former WEC and Strikeforce welterweight champion, scoring big wins over Paul Daley, Frank Shamrock, Robbie Lawler, and B.J. Penn throughout his career.
“When 20, 30, 40, 50 years pass, 100 years from now, they deserve to be remembered,” Bisping said. “They stand out as two of the most aggressive, game, always ready, always came prepared, always came in shape, dangerous in all areas, great striking, amazing submissions, and just a massive following. How could we forget about those people? If I get (a Hall of Fame trophy), Nick and Nate Diaz certainly deserve one of them.”
