Nice transition from Nick Diaz to finish with an armbar against Cyborg : )
209 Bitch, thats my dog, cyborg thinks he's crazy but he don't know crazy, lol
and i love the hammer fist to the stomach to open up the armbar. cyborg was turned up on his side and it made that lock so much tighter. great night for jiu jitsu with roger and jacare, too. i love strikeforce.
and who was diazing beefing with after the fight was over. somebody threw a drink in the cage at him and cesar gracie. diaz had some choice words for them afterwards. prob just some drunks, i guess.

Isn't that mayhem? Can't wait til Diaz puts the beatdown on him!
Chances are Diaz will get his ass whooped by Mayhem :P
We should make a poll :)
Can we do it?
mayhem vs diaz would be grudge match of the decade for me, i hope it happens, i love how nick said he'd fight anyone... http://dontbescaredhomie.com/
Mayhem hasn't really beat anyone of note since lawler in 06. He should stick to acting. He would be an awesome pro wrestler
This is a funny!Quote:

exactly Mayham needs to beat somebody worth talking about, not just some old man, after some legit wins, then Nick will be happy to put the 1's & 2's on him, also a great example of a Cesar Gracie ''black belt'' vs a MMA school black belt lolQuote:

it said it was some white trash drunks that were yelling things at him and his corner men all fight... diaz then threw his mouth piece at them which had them throw the water bottles... which made all the diaz fans throw bottles at the white trash... funny shit...
Nick Diaz or GSP best pound for pound...now I'm not sure. I do know Diaz is one tuff dude. He took everything Cyborg had and kept moving forward.
that would be a crazy fight, Nick Diaz 's boxing is sick, Jiujitsu, Top Class, Cardio through the roof, Gsp, Muy thai, wrestling, Cardio, & Good jiujitsu, not Top Class, Nick's boxing & his Guard could be the differenceQuote:

Nick Diaz's boxing is crap...he doesn't even keeps his hands up. It looked good last night because Cyborg wasn't even defending. I'll acknowledge his striking is a lot better than it has been...but that striking is just terrible. Also, I'm going to question his muay Thai...why was he not guarding up his leg for cyborgs kick...he couldn't do nothing with it. He only blocked one of them. Don't get me wrong, I'm starting to like the kid...but he has a lot of work to do before anyone starts comparing him to gsp at 170.Quote:

Unorthodox is another way to say bad. I'm not saying he sucks...so don't take it that way. But coming from a boxing background and I see folks talking about sick boxing you expect to see...I don't know...head movement, a true boxer's stance...footwork and not just arm punches. And hands at your side just makes me nauseous...If he comes at Semtex like that he will get knocked right back to the 209.Quote:

good point with noons. I just hope semtex wins his next fight Diaz vs. Semtex (daly) will be epic! I kind of wondered after the noons fight why diaz stayed in strikeforce. You know that Dana must've called him with GSP having no one else to fight.Quote:

what ? Nick beat, robbie lawler , scott smith, kj noons, frank shamrock, cyborg & others in the ufc & strickforce, & the Diego sanches fight should have been a draw, & mayham beat sakuraba & who else?Quote:

And does anybody really think Frank Shamrock was a big test for Diaz or Sakuraba a big test for Mayhem ? And you think the Diego fight should have been a draw ? Well that's your opinion, but the only opinions that mattered were the 3 judges of the fight. But that's why I would pay to see a rematch since they are Both much better than they were.Quote:

And if you havent seen the GSP Mayhem fight

Eddie is talks about it at the end.
Well I guess if people are saying that Nick has sick boxing then daly qualifies as elite as nick can't even hold a proper boxing stance and arm punches. Having a great left hook is something that most right hand mma'ers are susceptible too. Why? Because it seems that the boxing defense is so week. A fighter with a good left jab and hook finds his target all day. Nick Diaz, holding his arms at his side running his mouth will be on a stretcher if he does that with daly. Period. He took a ton of punches to the dome last night. He didn't even try to defend. Now it could just be because he knew Cyborg couldn't hurt him.Quote:
