Awkward style, but damn, he throws, throws and throws !!! He don't have knockout power, or great power, but who need great power when you throw that many punch. And he is so damn precise with his punch. Him vs Cung le? Him vs Shields? Could he be back in the UFC one day?
Nick Diaz is fun to watch - but he's such a douche outside of the ring. He's one of the best heels in MMA right now alongside Ortiz and Shamrock.
I don't like Nick he has that ghetto attitude that just totally makes me wanna poke his eyes out slowly with a spoon. I also think his striking is garbage, yea its awkward and constant but as far as accurate and damaging I beg to differ. What he has is massive reach and guys don't want to work to get into range against him. Guys just sit outside and look for a bombto land because they know they can cut Diaz, look at what happen when someone work at getting into possition and landed better more accurate strikes (Noons) he beat Diaz right up and cut him badly. Nick couldn't do anything but get punched in the face. Diaz is a good striker but not as good as the announcers and everyone else thinks.
Nick is a fake wanna be thug. Him and his iliterate slow witted brother Nate are both clowns who try to hard to "try" and be gangsta when they are just laughed at by real street *****s.
No its the way I said it. They are fake. This doesn't take away from their suposted skill or fighting but personality wise they are nothing short of wanna be thugs. They are fake as ****.
Keep in mind who hes fought. Shamrock hasnt been relevant in a decade and Smith is a D- fighter. Man im surprised he was able to make good money and win fights in MMA at a high level.
I agree i think he is laughing at them cause he is getting paid to fight and the others get in trouble!!lol
He has been on a good streak lately, not just beating but finishing guys.It looks like Strikeforce can market him against some top guys.
