Nate Diaz and his older brother Nick are one of the most popular personalities in the marijuana industry today. In fact, per several claims made by Stockton’s most beloved brothers, they’re indeed raking in big money by way of sponsorships and advertisements in the industry.
Considering that, the MMA community was set abuzz by the aforementioned Instagram post, which shows Nate Diaz’s longtime rival and current UFC Lightweight kingpin Conor McGregor at a coffee shop in Amsterdam—with a tub of marijuana prominently featured in the post.
Apparently, the shop is also known to sell marijuana, and McGregor was reportedly said to be “chilling” at the hangout, while in The Netherlands. That, in turn, has led to MMA fans and experts speculating as to whether McGregor could possibly be taking to the Diaz brothers’ mantra of utilizing marijuana—something they’ve been known to use before and after training sessions for relaxation & recovery—ironically enough, taking a page out of his rival Nate’s playbook.
