Nate Diaz Stockton slaps Tool vocalist Maynard Keenan

[Wild]

Brothers Nick and Nate Diaz have always been known for their infamous 'Stockton slap' amongst the hardcore MMA fan base, but younger brother Nate, 32, made the Stockton slap mainstream in his back-to-back fights against UFC star Conor McGregor.

Thursday, Diaz hit lead Tool vocalist Maynard Keenan with the Stockton Slap and uploaded the video to social media.

Good stuff.

Ya know, just one of these times, I wish for a full impact Stockton Slap. Love Condit, but one on him was glorious. With all these assholes calling Condit a coward, just take it. Take it like the white hot blooded manly men you are. I'd do it, of course I can say that knowing I will never have the honor. Im slightly intoxicated, Im sorry.

Didn't he do it to Michael Johnson too?

Yes and Conor several times

Yes and Conor several times

Conor is assumed. The Johnson one stands out because he laughed at him in the ring if I remember right.

Now you say that, I'm gonna go rewatch the two Conor fights. People love Conor but he did get hit a lot in those fights

Will save ya some time

1st fight
Set up the beatdowm with the Stockton slap, slapped him, made McGregor taight him back afrer the big punch, went on to finsh

2nd Fight
Sadmy waited til around 2 where he laid a beatdown, and then Round 5 when he started taking advantage of McGregor's fatigue

Nate showcases that McGregor is similar to Cerrone, but ahead of him. When Donald faces another opponent who doenst give a shit, he loses (Pettis, RDA, Nate) where McGregor can debatable win (Nate Diaz the second time). Not sure what the siscussion was before this, but rooting for McGrefoe in his boxing match, but want him to defend his goddamn title though

Surprised he didn't mention Conor in the video.

Because let's face it, it's the only way Nate stays relevant...
