If you want to get MMA superstar Nate Diaz’s autograph, you’ll have to work for it.

At least, that was the case for one fan who asked the former UFC fighter to autograph a pair of UFC gloves he was wearing. Stockton’s Diaz would take it, but not without a fight as he donned his gloves for an impromptu sparring session on the street.

“This guy came at me to sign these gloves so I made him fight me,” Diaz wrote on his Instagram story.

As you can imagine, the fans didn’t have much for Diaz other than a playful attempt at Shara Magomedov’s viral double-spin backfist attack from UFC 308.

Diaz pumped his punches and kicks before (gently) kicking the fan to the curb, coming out of the guillotine position to gain top control, and then grounding and striking for the finish, it was all in good fun.

The fan appears to have gotten what he wanted with the autograph, as Nate Diaz reaches out his hand and helps the fan to his feet.

Is it as real as it gets, like the UFC motto? No, this is as healthy as it gets.

The last time we saw Nate Diaz was earlier this summer, when he earned a controversial majority decision victory over BMF rival Jorge Masvidal in the boxing ring. That would put the 39-year-old at 1-1 in his post-UFC career, falling behind Jake Paul last year.
