Joe Stevenson is well aware of Nate Diaz’s strengths.

“He’s got a good triangle,” Stevenson told Sherdog.com’s Greg Savage. “He shoots it fast, too. Actually the most dangerous thing about Nathan Diaz is the fact that you can never count him out. He’s not the type of person that just surrenders.”

The lightweights will take to the Octagon on Saturday in Las Vegas.

Savage sat down with the contender to discuss his approach to the bout and his mental state following two straight defeats.
