Nate Diaz emphasizes that he is a lightweight
Nate Diaz may have beaten Conor McGregor at welterweight in March and the two may be fighting again at the same weight, but Diaz is still emphatic that he is not a welterweight.
The 209 bro shared a photo of a promotional image to his Instagram account Sunday that advertised him as a welterweight. In his caption for the photo, he questioned the welterweight tag and stated that he is a lightweight.
Diaz has fought at welterweight before in his career from 2010-2011 prior to moving back up to face McGregor, but the majority of his career he has been a lightweight. And when we say that, we are referring strictly to his weight class, not speaking figuratively about his stature or ability, obviously.
