    Am I the only person who thought this was about Nick v Mayhem? I got a horrible thought that the Condit fight had been cancelled and this is what they replaced it with.

    Anyway, ****ing great fight and it'll take a fair bit of consideration before I can pick a winner. WHoever it is should get a title shot.

    Its a good solid fight , its a step up and another test for both men

    Can Diaz stand with Miller without being taken to the ground

    Can Miller control Diaz from the top without being submitted

    Can Miller cope with Diaz's output on the feet and time his shot right

    Cracking fight , i cant predict on this one

    I can't see either guy being submitted but I'd definitely give Miller the advantage on the ground as far as positioning and control. Diaz takes it on the feet, but Miller will not be finished. Miller may well get a takedown or two early on when he's still fresh, but he's gonna have some issues standing up if he can't.

    Brilliant fight. Total coin toss.

    Are they doing 5 round main events on fox?

    Diaz lights him up on the feet and I'd say it's pretty even on the ground maybe slight edge to miller I think he might be a better at controlling Diaz from the top!
    Diaz UD been impressing me lately!

    The only advantage i give Miller over Diaz on the ground is top control , other than that i see Diaz superior in almost every aspect of Jui Jitsu compared to Miller , Miller will not be finished are pretty bold words , this MMA you just never know , unlikely i agree :hey

    Not sure about the 5 rounder's on FX :huh

    Miller is good on the ground but I can't see him keeping Diaz down the way Stun Gun did, and that's his only chance of winning. Diaz beats him up and wins a decision.
