During an appearance on Theo Von’s podcast, Diaz decided to blast Cormier about his job as a color commentator and analyst while saying the UFC Hall of Famer must be jealous that he didn’t make as much money during his career and calling him a “f*cking bitter little bitch who’s analyzing fights.

” On Wednesday, Cormier fired back while reminding Diaz that he earned his position as a commentator on the sport with championship credentials after claiming titles in two divisions in the UFC. “Nate Diaz, I think is reacting to what I said about him and Mike Perry’s fight and saying that I was excited about it because I know exactly what it is,” Cormier said on his YouTube channel. “He said we pretend to know everything when in reality we don’t, I don’t know everything.

I don’t know everything about fighting but what my job is to try to educate people who may not be as close to it as I am in terms of what fighting looks like inside of the octagon. We all think that we watch it and we all think we know what we’re doing when in reality, there is some details inside of fighting that is just known at a different level. That’s it.

That’s my job. That’s my job to do. “Nate clearly doesn’t like when we do that job.
