At UFC 196<\/a>, Nate Diaz shocked the world as he stepped up to fight Conor McGregor at welterweight on just 11 days notice. <\/p>\n

While it was reported prior to the fight that Diaz had been training for a triathlon,<\/a> the Stockton fighter revealed post-fight that he had been on a yacht in Cabo partying it up. <\/p>\n

With talks of a potential rematch between the two<\/a> at UFC 200 gaining momentum, Nate Diaz’s boxing coach Richard Perez spoke on the Deep Waters Podcast<\/a> to discuss how he feels a rematch would go.<\/p>\n

“It would be better because we only had 11 days and we only trained for nine,”<\/p>\n

“Usually, when someone gets two weeks’ notice, chances are they are going to lose. But I had a lot of confidence in Nathan and Nathan had a lot of confidence in the way we train, and in the way he trains \u2014 he does bicycle riding, running, swimming.”<\/p>\n

“If I were McGregor’s trainer, I’d say, let’s go back to 145,” Perez continued. “You’re awesome there. Fight Frankie Edgar or some top guy like that.<\/p>\n

“But I guess they want a rematch. That’s going to be different.”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
