The Stockton, California fighter has an army of diehard supporters. He will surely have only enhanced his reputation among them after paying rent for a fan who lost big betting on him to beat Jorge Masvidal for the “BMF” title at UFC 244.

Diaz lost via medical stoppage after the cageside doctor ruled he could not continue for the fourth round at Madison Square Garden, because of two nasty cuts around his right eye.

“Nate I lost my rent money betting on you now I’m sleeping in my car till [sic] I can come up with my half,” a fan replied to one of Diaz’s Instagram posts.

“Don’t trip I got ur b**** a**,” Diaz responded, in true Diaz style.
