Nate Diaz says he gets ‘better with age,’ will show he still beats ‘best of the best’ in Edwards

From winning the TUF 5 tournament in 2007, to those barnburners against Conor McGregor and Anthony Pettis a decade later, Nate Diaz has been a part of countless memorable bouts through the years. His longevity is a real testament to his skills, but as he recently turned 36, Diaz believes he is still getting better.

The Stockton native will be returning at UFC 263 against a top welterweight contender in Leon Edwards. The pair will make history as the UFC’s first five-round bout outside of title bouts and main events, and it’s a stage Diaz plans to use to prove he still beats the “best of the best” across multiple divisions.
