DIAZ vs. GSP its onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

from ufc.com

UFC President Dana White’s tweet Wednesday afternoon was short and sweet – “U wanted it! U GOT IT!!!”

What the fans wanted was a showdown between UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre and the STRIKEFORCE welterweight title holder, Nick Diaz. So on October 29 at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, the UFC 137 Superfight becomes a reality.

Unbeaten since 2007, St-Pierre has taken on and beaten all comers, barely losing a round in the process. Since regaining his title from Matt Serra in 2008, he has turned back the challenges of Jon Fitch, BJ Penn, Thiago Alves, Dan Hardy, Josh Koscheck, and Jake Shields. But this fall, he will face off against the man many believe has the style to dethrone him, Shields’ longtime training partner Diaz.

A proud native of Stockton, California, Diaz, like GSP, has not lost since 2007. Along the way, the UFC vet has defeated Frank Shamrock, Scott Smith, Mach Sakurai, KJ Noons, and Paul Daley, and with his world-class striking skills and jiu-jitsu game improving with each fight, he is on track to shock the world on October 29th.

it aint over til its over
i really dont see diaz getting Ko'd
and hes got help from shields...this should be great
going to be talked about forever!

Nick Diaz shall be the new Welterweight Champion.... Period....what a long time coming!!

I got Diaz.

Diaz all day! Hes guna smash that points fighter GSP.... when was the last time GSP finished a fight?!

First off, Cookie, I've got to give you props. You post these stories seconds before the MMA sites do LOL. We've kind of talked about this fight before. Bottom line is, GSP can say or do what he wants but Nick is just going to plain "beat him up". Nick is not the kind of guy that gets intimidated or flustered come fight time. He's gonna get in GSPs face, he's gonna give GSP the finger, and when that bell rings, he's gonna start stalking GSP and peppering him with punches until GSP quits or makes a mistake. Nick can win via KO or Sub. GSPs only shot is to lay and pray and if he does that, the fans will boo and for the first time, the judges might see that as fear and pick the other guy. Nick Diaz=Unified champ

Diaz by 420 choke second round.

Looking forward to this one! I'm not as pumped as I was for the Shields one, which we all know was a letdown, but I think it's going to be a bad ass fight. I gont Diaz via his huge ball sack.

What's a 420 choke? lol

He is not going to get KO'ed or submitted. He is going to get outwrestled and lose a lackluster decision to St-Pierre like everyone else.

I think GSPs improved boxing wont match up well with Diaz. I love GSP, but I think Diaz is the guy to beat him.

I think diaz is going to force gsp to fight for once. I don't really care who wins but its time for a new champ and id be stoked if Diaz was the man that pulled it off

diaz will be hyped. ghanstaaahed. and homied. But in the end GSP will train for him and pick him appart. The man knows how to win. Finish or not, his title remains.

Thank u someone with common sense

That's right. He's going to continue to train with top level jiu-jitsu guys and top level striking. And guys with longer reach. He's going to keep up his power lifting, gymnastics, and billiards or whatever else he wants to train. He's dealt with dangerous strikers and grapplers before. He's going to say Nick is his most dangerous opponent yet and he's going to train to beat him. If anybody makes a mistake it's going to be Nick and his emotions. If anybody's will is going to break it's going to be Nick after he can't stop the take down and can't land a submission off his back. After 4 rounds in the hole, we'll see what he has in the fifth.

Nick doesn't break ! the only way he can lose is by lay & pray, but Nick's guard is to deadly & active for that shit. so gsp will be in constant danger Nick just has to worry bout judges. 209 all day

He doesn't break, well maybe he will. You haven't seen his game shut down by GSP yet. But maybe you will. Everyone likes to think the next contender can beat GSP and we've seen what happens. Unanimous victories and people asking who's left ?

dude i agree with you 100 percent
for christ sakes nick diaz had a hard time with diego sanchez
and gsp would DESTROY sanchez

After seeing how Shields did against GSP I'm not sure I'd want any help. But if GSP fights Diaz the same way he fought Jake, GSP is gonna get boned.

idk what to think of gsp
whether he got beat in the stand up (which i doubt)
or he lost to jake in the stand up cuz of his eye problem
and wether he didnt want to to go the ground cuz he was scared, or just wanted to end it on the feet idk dude

Forget ground and pound GSP is bringing ground and hug back

Oh yeah! Finally someone to beat GSP! I have wanted this fight for AGES, but no one has taken Diaz seriously.
Diaz by sub or tko!
In my honest opinion Georges has nothing for him, and I've wanted someone who will take it to GSP for a long time.
GSP can't even lay n pray his way out as Diaz has a monstrous bottom game, lest we not forget his gogoplata which got overturned in Pride. A beautiful gogoplata at that.
This kid is the real deal and will do the belt proud!
2nd round tko or sub

nick diaz will win this one standing or on the ground.. gsp wins fights by not fighting, hes not going to be able to do that with nick because the fucker is too damn aggressive.. cant wait to see gsp's face at the end, hes gonna look like bigfoot silva only white!
