Fighter Bio

Career

Nicholas Robert Diaz (born August 2, 1983) is an American professional mixed martial arts fighter. He is also a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu brown belt and a professional boxer. Díaz is a former WEC and IFC Welterweight champion with a professional MMA record of 14 wins and 6 losses. In the past, he has competed several times in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. Diaz currently fights for PRIDE Fighting Championships and EliteXC.

Diaz was born in Stockton, California and went to Tokay High School in Lodi for one year before dropping out. While a freshman, he was a member of the swimming team. Diaz has stated in the past that swimming is one of the main reasons why his cardio is so impressive during his fights. Diaz has also said on multiple occasions that he had a hard childhood and grew up without having his biological father around.

Diaz originally started training in martial arts because he was being bullied by other teenagers who were bigger in size than he was. He then watched the UFC for the first time and soon wanted to be able to fight in the organization. When he is not fighting or training, Diaz is currently a mixed martial arts instructor at Pacific Coast Martial Arts in Stockton. He has a younger brother named Nathan, who is also a professional MMA fighter. He also regularly competes in triathlons as part of his training. Diaz still resides in his hometown of Stockton and is currently single.
