Nick Diaz beefing with Ariel Helwani..definitely one of the top 10 weirdest Nick Diaz interviews.

http://www.mmafighting.com/2011/04/07/nick-diaz-im-the-most-overworked-overtrained-underpaid-figh/
ugh Nick is getting his panties in a bunch over nothing. Ariel doesn't go over the line with the questions he asks, he isn't on some Bill O' Reilly shit or anything.

Speaking of which I would pay big money to see Billo interview Nick Diaz. That would most likely top the Cam'ron interview.

would you rather he answered everything with pre-canned responses like gsp? diaz is awesome because he don't give a fuck

The Reem does pretty well in the interviews I think and nothing he says comes off as pre-canned.
 
i love it. i may totally disagree with him or think he's being an asshole but you gotta appreciate a guy who speaks his mind

Nick's ADD + Pride rules pride + beefing' = amazing.

I thought he was joking at first but that quickly faded. Never change, Nick.

Totally agree with him about card system love, though.
 
although i love nick, he's smart enough and been around long enough to know that he should probably improve his defensive wrestling.

i fucking hate boring wrestlers, it sucks the life out of cards, but while zuffa is the only show in town, i'm afraid we are stuck with the shitty unified rules.
 
I still think Diaz ducked Jay Hieron but HEY, he is funky to watch and his interviews
are at least "different".
But he is rambling like a dumb idiot at times.
Saying that he should make more money and then not giving interviews / doing promo is just plain brat like.
 
Diaz :lol Diaz by Sub.

why does his wikipedia picture not look like him at all? He doesn't look that fat there.

wow 132 just gets worse and worse
Looks like one of the most exciting upcoming cards to me other than Bader vs. Tito. Whole lot of stand-up fighters with recent KOs.
Champ Dominick Cruz vs. Urijah Faber (for bantamweight title)
Wanderlei Silva vs. Chris Leben
Ryan Bader vs. Tito Ortiz
Erik Koch vs. Cub Swanson
Evan Dunham vs. George Sotiropoulos
Dennis Siver vs. Matt Wiman
Melvin Guillard vs. Shane Roller

Yeah I think I'm gonna go to this (being 4th of July weekend in Vegas is a bonus too)
 
Anyone watching MFC 29 tonight?
Light Heavyweight Championship bout: Ryan Jimmo vs. Zak Cummings
Welterweight Championship bout: Douglas Lima vs. Terry Martin
Catchweight (160lb) bout: Hermes Franca vs. Robert Washington
Lightweight bout: Marcus Davis vs. Curtis Demarce
Welterweight bout: Demi Deeds vs. Pete Spratt
Middleweight bout: Andreas Spang vs. Ali Mokdad
I like how Marcus Davis is fighting a dude with a bizarro world switched-around version of his name.

edit: Condit vs. Stun Gun at UFC 132. Instantly my most anticipated fight and more compelling than Penn vs. Fitch 2 IMO. I've been hoping they'd do it for months upon months.

So hyped for Condit/Kim.. This just confirmed my attendance. Getting my MGM Grand room now.

If Tito does not win this I think he might be cut or just used for novelty fights. Hopefully Tito pulls through so we can see a Tito/Nog fight.


Tito has been a novelty for quite a while. Hopefully he gets cut so we don't have to see any of his fights.
 
Hmm if I weren't a scaredy cat about online betting I'd consider putting some $ down on Jardine for this one ..

Mousasi -600
Jardine +400

if there was somehow a jardine-arlovski superfight, would their touching gloves result in a double KO?

Arlovski would do what fighters do pre fight and punch himself in the face, and KO himself, and like a fainting goat Jardine would be shocked he won a fight and upon raising his arms in victory pass out from the updraft.

Jardine's on his way down to 185 which is the only reason he was able to take the Mousasi fight on such short notice.

I've looked into it several times but it seems incredibly difficult to deposit money to any given site, much less get a payout without uploading scans of various personal documents. I wish there was a simple way to do it.
 
I really think diaz needs to stay away from daleys power. Diaz is a favorite fighter of mine, but damn, i think thisll be a pretty good test.
