Nate Diaz is being sued by Rodney Petersen, the amateur fighter he choked out in the April '23 brawl on Bourbon St. Petersen claims Diaz was unprovoked. RP says he hit his head & suffered injuries after he was rendered unconscious. Nate has always maintained he was minding his own business, and simply protected himself when confronted by RP. Although ND was initially charged w/ battery, that was dismissed. RE: the lawsuit, rep Zach Rosenfield responded "LOL" Clearly, Team Diaz feels the case is crap. More here: tmz.com/2024/04/19/nat…
@mikejbabcock It certainly looks like the dude has his hands up in the classic "Hey, not looking to fight" pose when Nate grabs him and pulls him in for a choke. Might be more to it, but it doesn't look good for Nate. It looks like he just took advantage of some random dude
