Nate Diaz gave a fan a pair of autographed gloves and also threw in a few hands and a takedown for good measure.
A brief spar went down between Diaz and a fan after the UFC star was stopped in the street and asked to sign some gloves. Diaz agreed, but only if the fan agreed to meet him in honorable combat.

The fan appeared to be inspired by Shara Magomedov’s recent double backfist knockout as he attempted the maneuver twice in the clip, much to Diaz’s amusement. Diaz is all smiles as he playfully swipes at the fan before later taking the fight to the ground.
Diaz is then seen mimicking some vicious ground-and-pound before helping the fan up and presumably accommodating his autograph request.
In other words: Just another day in the life of the Diaz brothers.
