The thing with the likes of Nate Diaz and Michael Bisping is that they will fight anytime. They would fight tonight and then again tomorrow. They aren't the most skilled fighters, but they are warriors, they can take an absolute beating and give plenty back. They always put on great fights and know how to talk up one. Look at Bisping's face before he went in UFC and look at it now, his face has pretty much been re-arranged and all for the sake of putting on a show for fans. The same with Diaz in fact.
Lads like these are as important to UFC as your flashy stars. I always root for these 2 personally, fuck your Connor Mcgregors and these other pampered, overhyped twats. Khabib is great, but also boring and the lad is an absolute bellend, which makes it hard to get behind him.
