When Nate Diaz isn't getting into brawls with other UFC fighters outside the cage, he also makes time to teach martial arts to students including a four-time NBA champion named Shaquille O'Neal.
It's well known that Shaq is a big UFC fan and close friend of league president Dana White.
Shaq loves the UFC so much he even allowed the promotion to host a news conference for a FOX UFC Fight Night event at his personal house in Orlando last year.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}In his spare time, Shaq likes to pick up a few new moves just in case he needs to showcase them in a fight or if his perpetual teases about fighting for the UFC one day actually come true.
This weekend, Shaq learned a thing or two about Brazilian jiu-jitsu from Diaz, who was in Orlando at a local gym in the area.
Diaz sent out a video showing Shaq learning a judo throw before he executes it himself and then pounces on his sparring partner to capitalize on the move.

It's unclear if the "Shaqramento slap" is a legal move inside the Octagon or not but given his 7-1 frame, he's certainly got the reach for it.
