I love both Penn and Diaz.. Penn is a fucking legend and I've been a fan of Diaz since his first stint in the UFC.. The promises to be a fight of the year candidate and eithewr way, I'll be a happy camper..
Kongo is a viscous striker but I've been really impressed with Mitrione as of late.. If Mir can KO Chieck, the so can Mitrione.. Huge mark for Roy Nelson.. Also, I heard he has lost a good bit of weight and has the best cardio of his career.. His ground game is light years ahead of Cro Cop but of course Mirko ALWAYS has a strikers chance.. Here is the countdown.. http://www.cagepotato.com/video-countdown-to-ufc-137/ |

I see Kongo surprising him the same way Big Nog surprised Schaub. Cheick's a huge step up in competition from Christian Morecraft. |

LOL @ Dana overreacting during the face off. I'm still excited for this card even without GSP.

Two all-timers in MMA retiring in one night...WOW.
I will say, I think we should give Penn a couple of days...to make sure he goes through with it. I got more of a sense that it was a hasty decision, similar to when he was talking after his draw with Jon Fitch. Cro Cop seemed more decisive in his decision. |

GSP vs. Diaz is back on! Condit agreed to step aside.

Love him or hate him, Diaz=ratings..
This is prolly the most intense presser I've ever watched.. http://www.mmafighting.com/2011/10/2...ference-video/ From how Dana reacts to Diaz, Diaz talking shit about Mayweather (LOL), to him talking about his living situation.. Simple fact is, this is the hightlights from the post fight press conference and they don't show ANYTHING, including Cro Cop retiring, but Nick Diaz.. Pretty fucking awesome.. |

I watched the whole press conference. Cro Cop wasn't there and it was pretty boring until Nick showed up. Nick was pretty even keel until the fight was announced. Then he flipped shit.
Honestly, I think Dana secretly loves the guy. He doesn't have to worry about Nick fighting a Jon Fitch or even GSP-esque fight that won't appeal to the mainstream fans and no matter how ridiculous some of these things Diaz says sound, they promote the fight and make him more of a personality. The squeaky wheel gets the oil and the buzz. If he took getting removed quietly, Dana probably wouldn't have changed the fight, but deep down he knows he'll do better buyrates with Diaz/GSP than Diaz/Condit. |

Dana loves the money he can make the UFC, sure, but you can tell by the way he looks at him he is thinking "You dumb stoner fuck"..

Congrats! @nickdiaz209 Now Holds Record for Most Significant Strikes Landed in a UFC Fight Two consecutive events have seen the all-time record change hands for most significant strikes landed in a UFC fight. While Nam Phan captured it at UFC 136, Nick Diaz now holds the record, with 178 landed against BJ Penn. Incidentally, Penn now holds the record for most significant strikes landed in a UFC career, capturing that distinction from Chris Lytle. |

It's a tragedy seeing $120,000 next to Brandon Vera's name and only $54,000 next to Cerrone's.

Vera is such a chump. It sucks because he had potential. Never been the same since the Syvila fight where he stunk out the joint.

lol that video is cool. Diaz is super calm until the weigh-ins, then he goes into psycho mode, he knows how to get into an opponent's head that is for sure. Also LOL at BJ eating everything, no wonder he looked doughier than usual.

I'm not a Penn fan but when he actually bobbed and weaved and back away he was actually doing well but when he stayed near the fence and did that stupid hand thing he didn't stand a chance.
