“He came out with that Stockton energy” – Logan Paul reviews Nick Diaz’s performance at UFC 266, talks Brian Ortega vs. Alexander Volkanovski

Logan Paul was amazed by Nick Diaz’s performance against Robbie Lawler at UFC 266. Considering the Stockton native was stepping into the octagon after more than six years away, Paul suggested Diaz looked impressive in his comeback fight.

Diaz took on Lawler in a five-round bout at UFC 266. In the third frame, the 38-year-old failed to answer the referee’s call after eating some heavy punches from Lawler. ‘Ruthless’ was thus awarded victory via TKO.

In the latest episode of the IMPAULSIVE podcast, Logan Paul discussed what it was like watching Nick Diaz back in the octagon following his lengthy hiatus.

“It was entertaining. I do have to give props to Nick Diaz because taking that kind of time off and, like, God knows what he’s doing to his body because if he were me, I would probably be drinking and smoking, hanging out with my friends, kicking my feet up, playing some video games, but he came out with that Stockton energy.”
