MMA fighter Nick Diaz wants Roy Jones Jr.

Superstar boxer Roy Jones Jr. has expressed interest in facing UFC Middleweight Champion, Anderson Silva, after Silva had let his intentions be known that he wished to face Jones in a boxing contest. Promoter Bob Arum was eager to promote such a bout to let the world see that "those MMA guys can't throw a straight punch".

Unfortunately it seems the impedus to set up such a fight is dead in the water, since the UFC is no hurry to see their Champion compete in a venue not being promoted by them.

Enter Nick Diaz. With Strikeforce's more flexible attitudes towards fighting and the Strikeforce-Showtime alliance, the barriers to such a fight could very well be coming down. Our camp has already contacted Top Rank Boxing to let them know we would be 100% in favor of such a matchup. Now the ball is in their court.

**** MMA.

Roy is finished and he'd still spark both at the same time.

 

who cares about those small timers.

 

Nick Diaz is the biggest **** talker in MMA. Knowing him he was probably high when he said this.

 

Nick Diaz doesn't have the prestige or drawing power to pull Roy Jones into a fight. He's so full of his own ****. He better worry about the guys in the division around him first.

 

Nick Diaz wants to fight Jones under boxing rules? :rofl:rofl:rofl

 

Agreed.

 

there is a rule I follow when people talk about MMA. its called "**** MMA"

 

Which is exactly how the thread started.

:smoke

 

It would be "Shattered Glass" all over again for Roy. He would get knocked out cold by the first punch Diaz landed.

 

Nick Diaz is a ****ing *******. Jones would knock him clean the fuk out.

 

He would get frusterated and try to take Roy down, and get disqualified.

 

I would like nothing more than to see Jones starch one of these loudmouth punks in the UFC.:yep

 

MMA fighters think they can beat RJJ at boxing? **** me, they're living in another universe.

 

Wow I can't believe ur giving that ***** that much credit...
