Joe Rogan’s Comedian Friend Narrates the Most Nate Diaz Story Ever

Well, Nate Diaz is indeed famous for his mannerisms inside the octagon and during press conferences. But Joe Rogan’s comedian friend Shane Gillis probably shared the most hilarious story involving Diaz and his behavior.

While on the KFC podcast, Gillis shared his encounter with the welterweight division fighter with the host Kevin Clancy.

Gillis first explained how he got a chance to meet Nate Diaz, who he called his “number one celeb he’d like to meet.” The comedian shared he was attending Joe Rogan’s gig and met Diaz after the show. “I got in there late and he was like ‘yo get this motherf***er one [drink] too,” he tittered as he pulled off the perfect Nate Diaz accent.

Being his fan, Gillis was all praises for Nate Diaz. “He’s the nicest dude ever,” Gillis stated. However, things escalated as he walked out with Diaz and his friends and they got into a fight. “And then we walked outside, and he front kicked a stranger,” he narrated animatedly as everyone on the podcast started laughing.

He detailed the story and said, “So Nate’s like clicking pictures with everyone, and one guy walked up to us that was like jacked. And Nate said ‘Yeah you wanna run up on us?” And soon after, they got into a brawl. Gillis said, “He got into a fight with this stranger immediately.”

According to Gillis, Diaz front kicked the guy as they were being separated and left him shaking. “Obviously, his boys jumped in and pulled them apart… and while they were pulling them apart, he threw a front kick and I was just standing like ‘Woah’. The kick connected on the guy’s hip which made him lose [control]… he just flew everywhere,” he added as everyone chuckled.
