Georges was great as usual. He put Nick down as many times as he wants. Nick is just a big mouth only with not enough talent to deal with George’s skills. On the other hand, Nick was very angry and a dirty figther throwing punches even after the bell ring off.
too many take downs booring to watch , gsp fought like a p*ssy
Please tell me wise guy!!!. How you will fight a guy with long reach like Nick? Will you stand on with the possibility of receiving a damaging punch in your face or try to put the guy down as George’s did at his entirely will?
GIVE A BREAk!!!!!
It’s called, having a full arsenal … What a dumma*s thing to say!! GSP dominated on his feet, off his back, and as he took Diaz down AT WILL. And for the dumma*ses to understand, at will means there wasn’t a f*ckin’ thing Diaz could do but go on whatever ride he was about to be taken!
As for the Diaz is an as*hole; that no one likes his personality; etc.; and to those who respond with, that he’s real; that he’s a true fighter who rose from the gutter and that’s how it is … HORSESH*T!
Fact is, if it weren’t for MMA, Diaz would’ve probably ended up in prison – he’s a piece of sh*t thug through and through. For those who think he’s not cuz he’s got a fat bank account — hell, why bother even explaining … Refer to the DUMMA*S comment.
GSP by contrast, is a true professional. Not that Diaz isn’t a pro, but professional by definition is simply that he’s paid for what he does. And yes, both are equally dedicated to their profession.
However, it’s about professionalism at its core — GSP is dedicated to MMA, a true athlete whereas Diaz, a low-life thug, turned pro because his skills couldn’t be denied — and skill he does possess, don’t get me wrong, but it’s more than that.
Even as a champion holding belts in 3 weight classes at the same time, ya think Dana White would allow him to be the face of the UFC? Allow him to represent the integrity of the UFC? Hell NO!
Parade him around and champ, YES. He’s a hell of a fighter; he’s got heart, dedication and sick skills (though no match for GSP)
BUT HIS CHARACTER LACKS ALL THAT GSP IS – A TRUE CHAMPION CROSSES THE FINISH LINE AS THOUGH HE BELONGS THERE; SHOWS MODESTY; ACKNOWLEDGES FLAWS; IS CONFIDENT, BUT DOESN’T TALK SH*T!
I COULD GO ON, BUT I’VE MADE MY POINT. LET’S FACE IT, WHO WANTS THEIR KIDS TO GROW UP TO BE THE DIAZ BROTHERS??
I am inpressed ! George did not stoop to diaz level and performed on a professional level and respectfull.diaz wants a rematch ! I think George show knock his a*s out once and for all.then diaz can just retire !
AGREED! A TRUE WARRIOR ALWAYS RESPECTS HIS ENEMY. BEFORE THE KILL, BY RESPECTING THE GUY’S ABILITY TO WIN — THEREFORE, NOT UNDERESTIMATING HIS POTENTIAL,
AND AFTER KILLING HIM BY RESPECTING HIS HEART TO HAVE FOUGHT TO THE DEATH, ALL THE WHILE HOPING THAT IF THEY HAD MET UNDER DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES — THEY MIGHT HAVE BECOME FRIENDS.
ANY OTHER WAY OF THINKING IS THAT OF A PIECE OF SH*T THUG WHO IS BEST KEPT AWAY FROM SOCIETY IN A CAGE.
GSP EST FORT.BON PERSON! CONGRATS
to much gay wrestling! ufc is getting boring!
i think nick diaz would beat gsp in stockon diaz did not fight his game im a diaz fan and i really thought gsp would beat him in 1 or 2 rounds diaz sleeped till 8pm and did not fight c*cky like he does gsp aint got to many more days of fighting his face was bad diaz dont retire show these haters what time it is boyyyyeeeeeee nick diaz is a bad a*s gsp is overrated f*k off haters gsp fans are b*tches rats r snitches` twichers have gliches hoses are witches gsp got stiches trucks have hitches both name mitches f*k fans or fitches put em in the ditches diaz is better than gsp b*tches diaz dont sleep till 8pm u
need to harrass him verbally he got some good shots in but he never had u threatened in the 3rd round u could of finished him ur better diaz its obvious i bet u gsp dont give u a rematch or conduit cuz it hurts to much to fight them gsp got 3 fights left in him then he going to b a chuck laddell, tito,ran dy caoture,bj penn l esner u k people who jus cant win anymore no matter who they fight in ufc tyson another example watch tysons last fight george forman a true champ after 50 quit when he should
Don’t you feel like an idiot now?? Another pre fight prediction shoved straight up your dumma*s! And who gives a f*ck where the fight takes place? A REAL CHAMPION WINS HOME AND AWAY!
And yes, most athletes are pushed out – few leave while in their prime.
But regardless of the sport: Pele, Joe Namath, Ali, Joe Montana, G. Foreman, Joe Lewis, Sugar Ray Robinson AND Leonard … the list is endless:
They were living legends who stayed as long as they could, because they loved what they did — eventually losing their place to younger guys coming up … Father time kicks everybody’s a*s eventually.
WHAT IGNORANCE TO TRY TO TAKE ANYTHING AWAY FROM THEIR ACCOMPLISHMENTS !! THE WORLD WAS LUCKY TO HAVE SEEN THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE …
DON’T WORRY, YOU’LL UNDERSTAND THIS AFTER YOU PASS PUBERTY!
