It’s a brave man who meets up with Nate Diaz, just weeks after describing his style as “terrible.”
Following Diaz’s submission victory over Conor McGregor at UFC 196, pop singer Justin Bieber threw his public backing behind the Irishman, insulting Diaz’s fighting style in the process.
“No bandwagon but Conor is a true champion, fights with style and finesse, all the respect to Nate but his style is terrible. Nate has crazy heart respect,” Bieber wrote on Instagram.
Those comments prompted the Stockton fighter to fire back at Bieber in an interview with Rolling Stone.
“Bieber don’t watch the sport; he don’t know the sport,” Diaz said. “I’ve seen a couple other people too, Drake, all these other guys that are stating their opinion. How are you going to state your opinion when you don’t know shit?”

But all of that hostility seems to be in the past now as the Instagram accounts of both Diaz and Bieber boasted pictures of the pair together on Wednesday night, with Diaz captioning his picture with “All good doe,” and Bieber simply writing “all love.”
