'How Did You Get Into Fighting?' | UFC 279 

Sure, we got subtitles for Khamzat, but we really needed them for Nate.

When Nate said “………………” I really felt that

"It all started ... from the beginning." - Nate Diaz

Nate is so well spoken always blows my mind with his articulation

There's just no words to describe Nate's story.

This is why I love the UFC! Just great stories from these guys. They all worked so hard and made a difference in their lives.

Nate's profound reasoning and thoughtful explanations here surprised me 😳

Tony’s story was by far the best

Nate's story was very moving 🥺

Honestly this card just got 10X better! These are the fight we wanted.

Who else is wondering why the fuck this card wasn't made like this. I'm so happy. Diaz vs Ferguson is a dream come true

After hearing story of Nate."...….…........." I felt that, And my respect just went 📈📈📈..

That Tony Ferguson bit at the end gave me the chills. The gesture of giving someone a brand new pair of gloves, is giving that person a sense of pride and self worth/self 🫡 ✊ respect. “It’s the coolest thing that anybody could have ever done to get me into fighting” Whoever did that gave another human a sense of purpose. That sums up the whole fight game for me. Hope this UFC 279 ends up being unreal! And one for the ages. The show of mutual respect between Nate and Tony at the weigh in takes me back to the golden era of Pride. Where everyone was all bite and no bark. We all know it’s gonna be a blood bath or a K.O. We’re getting sick of many fights being all bullshit bark and no bite, with many fighters holding back and relying on strategy this and strategy that. You are there to fuckin fight, so fight. Careful there UFC, perhaps 🤔 start deducting on the scorecards via ref warnings for not engaging. This card is gonna be 🔥 💣.

Can we get the non ADHD version? Why does so much media use this kind of story telling technique? It's so annoying. Just let a person finish their story, stop switching away after 5 seconds.

Rodriguez’s story is incredible Tony story had so much depth and soul Nate story just reminds us how much of a dog he is Hamzet needed fighting to have a better life

Why’s Nate’s part muted ?

Tony and Nate The Real definition of Ultimate Fighters . 💯 💯

Such a beautiful answer from Nate Diaz 🤣🤣

I really enjoy watching D Rod fight. I see a big future in the UFC for him. It’s nice to see him not care about the fights being changed and still with 1 day notice going to fight a beast.

Daniel’s a killer. I relate cause I can see how he’s channeling his past, hate and turning into pure love for a sport and lifestyle

I love how everyone has a subtitle when they talk, they even use huge text when khamzat talk. But when diaz is talking the subtitles disappear like he is speaking a true English to us without even needed the sub.

Chris Barnett seems to be the coolest guy ever it would be so awesome to be his friend 😀

Li Jingliang is a real man who accepted the most unfair arrangement of UFC and accepted an opponent who is 10 pounds heavier than himself. worth to respect

the production and music gave me chills whoever edited it i salute you

Where’s embedded episode 5 yo ???

This not the fight card we wanted....this is the card we needed !!! I won't be mad if Nate wins or Tony wins ! No losers for that fight ! Chimaev becoming the Villain we didn't know we wanted ? And most people gonna Root for Kevin "The Big Mouth" Holland !!! What a world we live in man, Dana didn't see this day coming for sure ! And the Real MVP Mr Leech Li-Jangliang ! Thank you Sir for saving the card and taking a harder fight and a lesser spot on the card, can this fight be a tie ? Please, i personally Like D-Rod, he's that real fighter type ! Man i'm so happy for this, yesterday night was not as hyped as now for this card...and everything makes sense with the world !

Crazy how they all went from nothing to something That’s The Definition of athlete and sports for me. What motivates every kid to be something

Years ago, Khamzat was at a buffet when some lady cut in front of him and he just snapped. He's been a fighter ever since. True story.

3:37 ”Started training with Nick, and then it was game over.” What a duo, legends.

All is right with the world now that this card has been reshuffled-many of us felt ill at ease with the initial matchups-now it all flows…

I love that they just didn't correct Nate's audio at all and just left it in dead silent🤣

Probably one of the most inspirational UFC cards ever .

This is really cool to hear! UFC and overall MMA is a plethora of all kinds of fighters with different backgrounds & origins 💯 Bring these videos more frequently!!

Even editor couldn't figure out what nate was saying. 😂

Tony's such a great storyteller

Good storyline. I think the UFC planned this somewhere in the lead up. Wouldn't be surprised if they signed NDA's on how everything went down.

Why wasn't Li Jingliang featured in this conversation???? Discrimination all the time!!

Nate story touched and motivate me so much.

Dude khamzat always makes me laugh " i went to mma gym sparring and smashed the boys" 🤣🤣🤣

With you guys the best in that cage tomorrow y'all, stay safe and keep grinding out these classics. Without you guys there ko UFC so THANK YOU

Moral of the story, walk into a gym with respect and see what you got.

What I love about MMA is the fact that you can really get in at any age and become successful. I mean probably not if you’re 45 but, so many sports you either start when you’re real young and have connections, or you ain’t gonna make nothing of it.

Whoever’s idea this was needs a raise!!! Shelby, Dana ya hearddddd 👂

“I smash the boys” - Khamzat Chimaev, 2022

"it all started in the beginning" Nate so wise man.

Everyone: Explains how they started fighting Diaz: "I fought the nurse when she delivered me."

Tony is the type of guy to handle business with his ears

We need CC when Nate speaks too!

Man since Nate's all wrapped up in the UFC, hearing him say "fighting has always been in my life... problems at home, problems at school" man I feel bad for him especially hearing how he talks now. We watched this man grow up on PPV right in front of us, only thing he ever knew. Hope he handles life after this well cuz hes a good guy at heart. Same thoughts for D-rod and Kevin Holland too. Hearing that LA juvenile detention to LA County Jail/Prison pipeline breaks my heart, Im from LA too and its sad how life in these places can take a young man or even a little kid and turn his life upside down or in the best case scenario like these guys turn him into a guy whos got nothing else but the cage and to make money with his blood. :(((( at least theyre making $$$ but what is it worth if you end up like Nate in the end.

Stop tryna slight Nate how do you put out a whole video with only his clips muted

There also used to be a story that the Caesar Gracie guys would buy Nick and Nate food any time they showed up to training when they were really young and poor. We train = We eat. Don't know how exactly true that is but it would make sense, especially to how loyal they are about their team and friends.

Thank u Nathan for that wisdom, truly an inspiration

"It all started from the beginning" Nate 'Luke Rockhold' Diaz

“Well this guy was talking crazy backstage so I decided to fight him… Y’know the press conference can wait”

I really like DRod. I was a fan of his fights allready but he seems like a pretty genuine person. Good luck tomorrow.

diaz “…. ….. .. …. …. .. …. … . …. .”

Khamzat “ I smash the boys” Chimaev

"it all started from the beginning" inspirational

Chimaev is such a nice guy full of life and joy!

Hell yes good editing appreciate hearing nate

Dude, Nate`s reasons for fighting we're astonishing

It'a crazy that D Rod really started with MMA at 25 years old and now fights at a UFC PPV

nate diaz man so motivational man 😢😢😢😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 edit: i wannna be like him one day😭😭😭😭😭

Love this question. I once asked a friend this and got an answer worth listening to, and these are no different. Some day I hope to tell my own story.

So humbling to hear each of these fighters beggings man, I love this sport so much man keep these types of vids comming ufc love the insight on all these great fighters !

It all started from the beginning - Nate Diaz 2022

The idea for this video was great! Simple, but interesting. Well done UFC!

Tony's stories always have that "Hey Kid" in them...

Why are they muting Nate Diaz? The disrespect is unreal.

I loved this so much. Please keep this going

Nate must've flagged the original video btw Curtis said someone recognized his fighting skills by his dance moves 😂

UFC slowly turning into WWE , who knows what’s real ?

Nate mastered the ability of talking without saying anything

0:46 Security guard gets eye poked lmao

Why isn't anyone mentioning that Nate Diaz is muted in this video???

I'm 25 & start training on Monday, been street fighting in CA since I was 10.

Great video

"__________________________________" truly inspirational

Nate has wise words. The wisdom was overwhelming 🤣🤦‍♂️

Nate took his weird accent to another level 😂

Excited to finally see Holland get the Askren treatment, this is event just got better 🔥

damn that cali accent is crazy idk wtf nate is saying 😭

Tony is such a likable guy. truly a Legend, along with Nick and Nate.

Yoo nate Diaz story was inspiring Particularly when he said: ......................... Wow man

UFC EMPLOYEE DO MORE OF THIS💯❤️

This really had me thinking my speaker Phone was fucking up.

Nate Diaz got his life saved

i didnt hear a bit of what nate said. his parts were silent

Pressing the left key on the keyboard is kind of funny lol.

"As far back as I can remember"....Totally thought Nate was gonna quote Goodfellas there at first

The Nate Diaz speek was very emotional, Sad and Motivation...Know i can understand his whole Personality

Music to Tony's ears sound different tho

Nate talking facts in this video, for real

Khamzat emotional speech brought tears in my eyes

How do you edit and post this having no audio for nate

love the spooky/motivating music...represents their roots...some of which were very rough and tough starts, so spooky music is fitting. Fighting may have saved some of these guys' lives, so very fitting. Spooky and cool music for how these beasts grew into beasts!

Nate bought tears to my eyes

Wait!! Why did they mute Nate's voice!?

Genius idea to interview Nate with no mic
