    Although he has problems I hope Karo Parysian if brought into Strikeforce. The man is top 10 when healthy and holds a win over Nick Diaz nearly 6 years ago in a absolute classic match.

    Truestory. The Diaz/Parysian/Sanchez series was so legit. I wouldn't mind seeing part of that getting reignited in Strikeforce.

    I agree. Karo is a legit fighter. SF can sign him and pay him low after all the **** he has caused. SF 170 roster needs him. Diaz like other big fighters is talking about big fights with UFC fighters. SF need to counter this by delivering meaningful and interesting fights. Diaz can be kept quiet if they give him Karo as that is a legit fight. Karo has wins over Serra, Lytle, Diaz and has mixed it with the creme de la creme - GSP, Sanchez, Alves and Sherk.

    Yes Strikeforce should be trying to keep Nick happy with competitive fights. The 2 rumors I hear are Jay Hieron which probablly isnt very motivating and Hayato Sakurai who of course is a legend but hes coming off 2 stoppage losses one of which to Zaromskis who obviously Nick TKOed last night. Id be of course going after Karo Parysian hes well known, exicting, is ranked in the top 10 when hes active, beat Diaz in 2004 thats a big fight for Diaz. Shinya Aoki is another I know Strikeforce probablly wants him to take a fight at 155 but Aoki did hold the Shooto belt at 167 so he can hang at that weight. One other possible fight could be one of Dreams welterweights in Akihiro Gono. Personally I want Karo way before any other possibe fight for Nick Diaz that Strikeforce can provide him with. Also if they have trouble making a title fight maybe a catchweight rematch with Robbie Lawler could be made.

    I agree. Karo and Lawler are interesting fights.
