The former UFC star Nate Diaz had a visit to Newcastle recently.
Various videos have emerged of the Stockton native around Newcastle over the weekend, including him sampling some of Greggs finest delights.

People are wondering why he is in the North East of England and it’s transpired he’s there to support long-time teammate Chris Avila who fought on the Misfits Boxing’s X Series 18 event at Vertu Motors Arena on Saturday night
By far the best video we have seen though is one of Diaz enjoying a night out on the Toon with some local lads, where he is posing for a few pictures.
Of course he had to throw in a few chokes on the happy fellas in the venue.

Since leaving the UFC Diaz has had a couple of boxing bouts against Jake Paul and Jorge Masvidal.
He lost to Paul but managed to defeat fellow UFC veteran, Masvidal via a majority decision in June.
