“Turned Into a Walking Punching Bag”-Actor Ronen Rubenstein Roasts Nate Diaz for His Recent Fights

The Nate Diaz versus Dustin Poirier grudge fight seems to be upon us and everyone seems to have a say on what the future holds for both men.

In the last three decades of its existence, MMA, as a sport, has captivated many in the world. Hordes of people among popular celebrities such as Leonardo DiCaprio and Idris Elba love MMA for its athleticism, and, not to mention, brutality. Another name who loves MMA is Netflix‘s Orange Is The New Black actor, Ronen Rubenstein.

The Israeli actor joined former UFC welterweight champion Matt Serra and Jim Norton on their podcast UFC Unfiltered and gave his two cents on the blockbuster matchup. He showcased his support for ‘The Diamond’ and criticized Nate Diaz for his last performance against Leon Edwards.

“He said himself right. I watched his interview the week after he lost. He said the only person that could get him excited to get up and train right now is Nate Diaz. And Nate Diaz, not for nothing, has sort of turned into a walking punching bag. So, I think for Dustin it could be not an easy win but almost a very, very sure win.”

“That’s what Leon did to him…I think if you look at the first four rounds Leon pieced him up; he did everything he wanted with him. And it was very much a walking punching bag. I think Nate Diaz, if it is Dustin Poirier, I think he’s gonna train harder than he’s ever trained, but I think Dustin wins man,” Rubenstein continued.

Dustin Poirier confirms Nate Diaz fight

In a conversation with boxing legendary boxing coach and commentator, Teddy Atlas, former UFC interim lightweight champion Dustin Poirier, reflected on his performances. However, the highlight of the interview was when the man himself confirmed his opponent in his octagon return.

Contrary to Atlas’ belief of him fighting Conor McGregor upon the latter’s comeback, Poirier boldly claimed that he was instead going to scrap against Nate Diaz.

In his own words, “Look, I don’t owe these guys nothing, and I am not biting my tongue, it is Nate Diaz.”
