Nate Diaz Submits Tony Ferguson At UFC 279

Nate Diaz’s final match in the UFC is in the books, and he emerged victoriously. Tony Ferguson was a last-minute fill-in after Khamzat Chimaev couldn’t make weight. In the end, it didn’t slow Diaz down.

In the end, Diaz submitted Ferguson in the third round of the fight. Diaz is expected to leave his UFC career behind him after that headlining fight.

UFC 279 went down in Last Vegas, Nevada, and a crowd packed the T-Mobil Arena for a card that saw several changes. Diaz had to alter a lot of his strategy, but he won the fight after Ferguson went for a takedown and Diaz countered to latch on a guillotine choke.

The fight was over quickly after Nate Diaz latched on his chokehold. There wasn’t anything Tony Ferguson could do at that point.

Nate Diaz is wrapping up his UFC contract with this fight. Now he has the freedom to seek out other opportunities, such as fighting Jake Paul down the line, if they can make that big money fight happen.
