Nate Diaz: Someone Doesn't Need a Hug

Nate Diaz believes he should have won his UFC 94 fight with Clay Guida. He said to Graciemag:

"I know I lost the decision in the minds of the judges but I really felt I was whooping his ass the whole fight and he was just holding me. Before the fight people were asking me about his pace and if I would be able to keep up with it. I felt he couldn't keep up with my pace and that's why he was trying to slow things down by holding on and not trying anything. I even gave him my back so he would try to do something besides hugging me. A couple of times I looked at the ref to ask him if he wanted us to fight or what? Sorry I didn't listen to my corner and stand with him more but I never thought he would be so happy to just stall like that."

I actually thought Nate was going to get the decision, but it was a very close fight. Tough break for Nate, but he'll be back.
