What's the likelihood of GSP/Diaz in November or December of 2011?

[Next Big Thing]

Honestly, if GSP beats Shields I don't see how they could let him move up to 185 before doing this fight. Say what you want about Diaz and whether or not you think he could compete with GSP, the fact is this is a fight that could sell a lot of tix.

After Diaz KOs Tyron Woodley, the SF 170 pound division may as well fold into the UFC.

In fact, I'm willing to bet that GSP/Diaz in some kind of Welterweight unification fight could do just as big numbers as GSP/ Silva. Before you jump down my throat for saying that, just look at Silva's PPV buyrates. Plus, GSP could sell out in Canada just by shadow boxing. AND, in terms of hype a pissed off Nick Diaz rambling about being better than GSP and wanting to get paid like a boxer is a hell of a lot more entertaining than Anderson Silva mumbling to himself in Portuguese.

Plus, we know that GSP is down to wrestlefuck and Anderson has no problem staring at you if you choose to fight passive and that could make a terrible fight. At least Diaz will come out swinging or at least talk enough shit from his back to keep the fight entertaining if GSP chooses to keep it on the ground.

I'm not saying that GSP vs. Silva shouldn't happen or that Nick Diaz would beat GSP, I'm just saying that from a fan perspective and even a business perspective putting on GSP/Diaz before GSP moves up wouldn't be a bad idea.
