    You said a jab was little more than a range finder...

    Silva knocked Griffen out with a jab.

    I think one of the Diaz gifs says round 4.

    Also, he has a point with regard to the Daley clip, as Diaz was swarming in for the finish vs an obviously hurt Daley, whereas in the Penn clips BJ was measuring and striking fresh and unhurt versions of Hughes and Sanchez. I agree with you that Penn is a better technical boxer, but I see his point in that these particular clips are not really fair evidence of this, the situations are different.

    DIAZ'S JAB! I was referring to the way Nick paws it forward :patsch

    Jeez HENDO you think the law of averages would mean you get something right, if even by accident once in a blue moon :roll:

    Does being a Diaz fan make people go full ****** by osmosis

    I think Diaz inability to keep range will hurt him bad in this fight. He never seems to want to stay on the outside. Always coming in behind his punches. I can see him being in perfect range for BJ but smothering his own work like he usually does. Will be interesting to see if BJ fights on the outside I can't see Nick picking him off when he comes in.

    Ah right, it's a gif showing clips of two separate rounds. It starts showing part of round 1, then jumps to part of round 4.

    Yeah, because fighting 4 rounds on the ground underneath GSP is so similar to fighting 3 rounds on the feet vs Nick Diaz.

    Unlike Noons, Penn probably does have the best boxing in mma. Penn will dominate standing.

    If this fight goes to the ground, it will most likely be Penn's decision. Diaz just doesn't have the take down ability to take Penn down.

    I really don't see how Nick can win this.

    Its a 5 minute round, Diaz usually does not pace himself, so he looks sloppy after a long exchange, its kind of like what happened here, to put it in perspective for you:
