Nate Diaz vs. Donald Cerrone

At yesterday’s UFC 141 press conference opposing fighter’s squared off in front of the media. And as usual, when one of the Diaz brothers is involved, things get a bit rowdy.

Unfortunately for Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone, the rowdiness included opponent Nate Diaz flicking his trademark stiletto cowboy hat off his head and onto the ground.

In a battle that could declare who will face the winner of Frankie Edgar and Benson Henderson for the UFC’s lightweight strap the match between Cerrone and Diaz has a lot at stake.

Both fighters are extremely well rounded in their ground game as well as with their stand-up delivery. 

Diaz and his elder brother Nick have a habit for provoking and taunting their opponents before competitions in hopes to get under their skin.

Cerrone is currently riding a six fight win-streak while Diaz is sitting on top of one win after returning back down to the lightweight division.

Whatever the outcome, this fight is an early contender for fight of the night and will carry a lot of hype into the octagon.
