I think Diaz has improved a lot over the last 2 years, or it looked that way fighting Penn. GSP will have his hands full for sure. Really want to see it.

I don't know if Diaz can beat GSP, but I like his chances.

Diaz is a better boxer. He is better on his back. I don't know who is better on the ground.

I love the Diaz brothers. You know they smoke weed.
The Stockton slap is deadly.

I saw a "rumored line" St-Pierre as a -425 favorite, while Diaz comes in at +325.

Makes sense to me. I want Diaz to win.

I guess GSP wants to take Diaz down, avoid a sub and lay on him for another boring win.

Yeah,they smoke Weed,but ive said it before,i like a persons skills in the Cage,but just as much,i like personnalitys and how they present themselfs and treat others.Nick is a spoiled disrespectful all around trashy dude.So if someone treats others with ill will,i dont care how good of Fighters they are,i could care less about them.And that doofus Nate is an idiot.Copying his brother and disrespecting those who have shown him nothin but respect.Respect is MMA 101,you dont have to like someone,but in the Cage,everything should be done with respect.Even an elbow to the nose.Lots of people smoke Pot that are a$$holes and those two are prime examples,imo.

Mayhem is a douche. He should have never been allowed to enter the cage to begin with, he knew what would happen going in with those guys who have beef with him

more of a Douche to attack someone for entering the ring,its been done by many n never had something like that happen.Just recently,Sugar Rashaad went into the ring with Jon Jones,and JJ didnt have to have his whole Team jump on him.That was one of the all time gay moves,imo./////////

diaz is a better boxer, but this is mma. and penn has MUCH better jitz than diaz, yet gsp had no issue pummeling him into submission. gsp is going to gnp diaz, or possibly lay n pray.

more excited to see henderson vs shogun. shogun got fucked in his fight with jones, he wasnt even close to healed from his surgery.

Right...
Its happened many times when a fighter comes into the ring uninvited.

But maybe ram is right miller should have known how the trash would react.

Nick was a badass from the beginning. LOL! He and (less-so) Nate are super-socially awkward but once you see them, in person, how they interact with the fans, I think your opinion of them would change.

Yer right,i think Mayhem probably knew what kind of recation that move would invoke.But he also knew that ,only because he also knew what douches Diaz and the gangstas are,lmfao.They are what they are and cant help it i guess.

Nick Diaz won't get ground and pounded...just won't happen...he is WAY too good off his back and he is like gumby.

I think Diaz has mental problems...he can't get his thoughts to come out in coherent words....but he's not a bad guy....he's wild as fuck and probably bipolar but he's a pretty nice guy when u see him talking to fans and stuff...

OK here's the end of the fight in super-slow-mo Jangles-Vision with pauses on each hit.

imYKUHXZV4U0K.gif


What I've concluded after watching it a bunch is that the last few hits were definitely to the side of the head, BUT, the hit just before those (the 2nd hit in the gif) that I called "glancing" earlier was actually a pretty direct hit to the back of the head/neck and appears to be the one that does the final KO, as you can see Cain go completely limp immediately after that blow.

Show was pretty much over by then anyways, but thought we'd hash this out properly since it came up.

Also, some of you may not be aware, but we have a discussion thread for each UFC event over in the sports & recreation forum - https://www.icmag.com/ic/forumdisplay.php?f=65618

Personal request tho - please keep the unhelpful post ratings out of the UFC event threads, just not how we've been rolling over there for a long time now. :thanks:

I am aware of the Diazs' behavior and like them because of it.
They are heels and enjoy playing the role.
GSP would love to lay and pray.
