Nate Diaz and Misty Brown’s low-profile love story
According to a report by Sportskeeda, Misty and Nate are childhood sweethearts. In a 2019 interview with The New York Times, Misty gave a rare glimpse into their love story. The duo first crossed paths at Salas Park in Lodi, California. Back then, Nate was very active and was always into training and running. However, there is no information about when Nate and Misty tied the knot, the couple shares three children, two daughters and one son.
In the same interview, Misty shared that the world might recognise Nate as a tough guy due to his rude and aggressive nature, but in personal life, he is very loving, kind and passionate. Misty believed that Nate was misunderstood because he is naturally quiet and reserved. Misty added that she has known Nate since her early twenties. She was quoted as saying:
“He was always running laps. Even then, he was getting in trouble. It’s wrong that he comes off as the middle finger mean guy that you can’t have a conversation with, when deep down inside, he’s one of the most passionate people I’ve met. There’s the portrayal of him on TV, and when people meet him they say, oh, he’s not mean at all.”
More about Nate Diaz
Nate Diaz is one of the biggest names in combat sports. In a recent interview with MMA Fighting, Nate shared why he chose to fight with Mike. Earlier, rumours swirled online that Nate was making a comeback and would have a face-off against Conor McGregor. He was quoted as saying:
“I was just weighing out my options and I thought it was the best option for the time, for the moment. Mike is the biggest name outside the UFC doing things, like how I’m trying to do. That’s what fighters should be doing and we can set an example like I was already trying to do but it takes two to tango and there’s not much out there. Not to mention, they got the Netflix combined with it so that’s a two-for-one.”
While the world knows Nate Diaz as the strongest MMA fighter, he is very soft and kind-hearted outside the ring. Misty Brown stays out of the limelight but is the biggest cheerleader for Nate’s combat sport.
