Nate Diaz 'not surprised' by epic street art immortalizing win over Conor McGregor
Nate Diaz has enjoyed a real boost in his fame over the last few weeks ever since he submitted Conor McGregor at UFC 196.
Diaz engaged in a long media tour after the fight where he appeared on dozens of TV shows, radio shows and everything in between to talk about his victory over McGregor.
Now, Diaz's memorable post fight speech when speaking to Joe Rogan just seconds after defeating McGregor has been immortalized in a piece of street art painted in his honor.

The photo posted by one of Diaz's main sponsors pays homage to the Stockton, Calif. native telling the world that he wasn't shocked by the outcome of his fight with McGregor no matter what the odds said before he walked into the Octagon.
"I'm not surprised mother (expletive)," Diaz shouted to the Las Vegas crowd back in March.
The photo the art is based on has also become another significant moment in Diaz's history with his face covered in blood and his signature scowl decorating the look of victory in his eyes after beating McGregor at UFC 196.
Diaz might have been able to add a few more epic moments to his resume if not for his rematch with McGregor being canceled at UFC 200.
Diaz was supposed to fight McGregor on July 9, but the Irishman was pulled off the card after he refused to travel to the United States for a promotional tour ahead of tickets going in sale this week.
Diaz maintains that without McGregor on the card that he's going on vacation, but at least he'll always have the memories from the first fight with this piece of street art in his honor.
