I was online, going through all The Ultimate Fighter seasons, and came across season 5--the only one I haven't watched yet. Of course, I started going through the episodes. I never realized that Nate Diaz got his contract through that show. It was fun watching him be a normal person instead of inside the octagon punching people's faces. And man does he have a temper!! On The Ultimate Fighter, there are two teams fighting to get a six-figure contract. This season, the teams were Team Penn and Team Pulver. In one of the episodes, a member of Penn wrote, "Suck it Team Pulver," on the wall of the poolhouse. When Penn arrived, Nate saw this, and--being on Team Pulver--took it offensively. He went inside the house and lost it when he found out who wrote it. His teammates had to hold him back so he wouldn't get kicked off the show for fighting.
A while later on the show, Diaz got into a confrontation with Karo Parisyan--a professional fighter. Once again, he almost got into a fight, but he backed off. Diaz says it had nothing to do with the fact that Karo was the only person to defeat his older brother--Nick Diaz--but I suspected that even if it wasn't the entire reason, it played a part in the hostility.
But overall, Nate was an outgoing, funny, prankster. He seemed cool to hang around, which was totally different from his personality inside the cage.
Season 5 was full of well-rounded, lightweight fighters. They were a bunch of crazy fuckers, and if was an exciting season to watch. In my opinion, it was the best to watch. Season 5 had everything. Good fighters, beefs, personal issues, even down to a guy sticking a tube up his ass to make weight--he failed, by the way. My favorite season by far.
