Hmm...Ali's case for conscientious objector status went to the supreme court. He talked shit about his opponents...but that's not what I'm talking about. Ali was a devout muslim and leads an upstanding life of charity and tolerance. To try to compare Nick Diaz with Ali is frankly a serious reach. We're not talking about shit talking...we're talking about a kid portraying a stereotype of an irresponsible young punk who prides himself on being ignorant. Ali never threatened or ensenuated that he was going to slap a reporter because he didn't like a question. Nick is acting the WANGSTA stereotype of those from central california...and the kids look up to him..but not for his hard work...for his "fuck everybody" attitude that he portrays. When he stands in front of a camera spouting a bunch of crap and threatening reporters, pushes cameras at fighters after he has won, puts his hands in the face when the doctor is observing them....that's the whole "don't fuck with the 209" attitude. From any of that...where do we get he is a high level gracie black-belt, who runs triathalons and is a 3 tooled mma guy. He even bills his school by saying come to my school and learn how to beat people up. RIIIIIIIIIIIGHT.....

you think he's acting. I think he is one of the most real dudes in fighting. Chael Sonnen is acting. Nick Diaz is just plain real.
Hate him cause he is who he is. He's not a gangster punk, he not a thug.

james try being logical, do you actually think before you speak ? post fight, nick says in quotes '' if you want to learn jiujitsu & self defense come to the academy, not everyone wants to fight like this most just want to learn self defense if so come buy '' end quote, he never said come learn how to beat people up. why make things up just for argument sake ? your lack of logic & rational gives you a very clouded perspective.

<Big Nick Diaz Fan, have been ever since he made his UFC debut and won the trilogy against Jeremy Jackson. Karo Parisyan debuted the same night and I was thinking wow the UFC just picked up two bad asses in the welter weight div. Now I have two questions. James, what specifically has Nick Diaz done that bothers you? Derrick, why do you feel the need to put spaces before your punctuations? Bobby hit the nail on the head I feel sorry for the guy he has some serious anxiety going on when they put a camera in his face and some times the awkwardness makes him look bad he should get a public relations coach and deny all post fight interviews until he has had time to prepare himself. For you guys saying he's acting like this or acting like that, bullshit hes not an actor hes a fighter and he is just being himself whether you like him or not. One more question, what specifically makes him a "wangster"?

I dont hate Nick Diaz. Im simply not a fan of his attitude. And I think this might be why, but who knows. Its the same reason I dont like Lesnar, he is an ass. They are both good fighters in their own right, but it doesnt mean I HATE them. I doubt Im being ignorant because Im turned off by someones attitude. Its just personal preference, and I dont really click well with how he acts. As far as saying anything about his personal life, I cant, or wont, because I dont know the guy. One plus I see is that he is very very loyal and respectful about his teammates, which most professional athletes in other sports cant even begin to understand.

In my life experience, loyalty weighs pretty heavy in character judgment. Goes hand in hand with honesty and dedication imo. Which he also has in excess.

Way to mediate jmw. lol

He leads by example by workin his ass off, and when he's not doin that he trains and competes in friggin triathlons. Then im guessin he hits the couch tired, broke down, and beat up as fuck just to get up and do it all again the next day. Then he might chief a lil' to wind down after pushing his body and mind farther then most could fathom. It should be a non-issue.

I wish all these lil wangstas you speak of would truly act like Nick. Hell it wouldnt hurt most of us to..
