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.

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.

[Mario Lopez Alvarez]

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.
