As a UFC superstar, Diaz has put on a series of fights that have each earned a special place in the history books among some of the sport’s most intense battles. Now the mixed martial arts phenom has decided to offer his thoughts as to which background may earn a budding fighter a better shot at super-stardom, wrestling or football?
Speaking to TMZ Sports, Diaz offered his thoughts on the matter:
