Ex-UFC Fighter Nate Diaz Wanted For Choking Out Influencer, Claims Self-Defense

Nate Diaz got into a street fight with a TikTok star resembling Logan Paul after a boxing event in New Orleans.
Diaz appeared to choke a man named Rodney Petersen unconscious, leaving him with a bloody head injury.
Diaz has been charged with second-degree battery, a felony in Louisiana punishable by up to eight years in prison.
