Joe Rogans blatantly obvious, and incredibly biased nature toward his preferred clientele may have once again placed the UFC commentator firmly on the hot seat.

“They were leading fans to believe I lost the fight,” was the statement made in a recent video posted by Ultimate Fighting Championships Lightweight rising contender Nate Diaz, who came out on the losing end of a close split decision this past Monday night at UFC Ultimate Fight Night 20.

The cagefighting event—a sport which is growing rapidly in popularity—was aired live on Spike TV, and saw Diaz lose a rematch to fellow Ultimate Fighter reality show alumni and UFC top contender Gray Maynard.

Diaz today, has posted a video on the popular website you-tube in which he lays the partial blame for his misfortune on well known UFC commentators, Joe Rogan and Mike Goldberg.

Diaz doesn’t stop there either, he also “calls out” his opponent from Monday nights controversial match, and challenges him to come out and show his battle scars.

If anybody sees Gray Maynard, tell him to show his face today and see how it looks, an upset Diaz stated. I got more landed strikes in that fight, and I threw more [strikes].

He (Rogan) must’ve been judging it on the person who he liked better because obviously, as far as the commentary was concerned, everybody liked Gray,

If the fans want to go back and judge the fight for themselves, put the TV on mute, if you can.

Diaz is now the second fighter to complain regarding Rogans obvious biased nature toward fighters he likes.
