Nate Diaz is on the verge of potentially his final fight in the UFC. Before he joined the global leader in MMA after winning “The Ultimate Figher 5,” Diaz made his pro debut in 2004 under the WEC banner, which was one of the largest promotions around that housed talents like Donald Cerrone, Jose Aldo, Dominick Cruz, and many more. Diaz also fought once under the Strikeforce banner, another storied promotion that was once home to the likes of Cris Cyborg, Ronda Rousey, and his brother, Nick Diaz. One thing Nick did that Nate did not, however, was fight under the storied Pride banner, which saw Mirko Cro Cop, Mark Coleman, Wanderlei Silva, and Shogun Rua, among others, compete in memorable grand prix tournaments.
