Nick Diaz recently did what could be one of his most candid interviews with ESPN’s Brett Okamoto. The 38-year-old veteran talked about how he does not enjoy his chosen profession and questioned the matchmaking behind his upcoming fight with Robbie Lawler, among other things.
I never enjoyed fighting. It’s just something that I do.
It’s just what I do. I try to get away from it, but really, it’s kind of inevitable. It is. All the people around me, and all the money and the sponsors, they won’t let me get away from fighting.
