As you may have noticed, there will be no Sunday Morning Rumor Mill today. There was only one significant thing that happened last week, and if you read the Nick Diaz article, then you already know it. Also, if you have access to a steamer and raw catfish, don't use the steamer to cook the raw cat fish. It will always be raw. There's nothing modern science can do to fix this problem. Nick Diaz could punch the raw catfish in the face for an entire evening, but unfortunately that won't result in it being cooked. Not at all. If Nick Diaz punched a raw catfish, then he must be expressing his disdain that 'catfish' can't pur. They aren't even cats at all, and that may make Nick Diaz a very angry person.

FightMetric broke down last night's UFC 137 main event and discovered that Nick Diaz now holds the record for the most significant strikes in a UFC fight. He managed to get 178 significant strikes on The Prodigy, enough punches to send a normal man into paralysis while flying head-first into the front door of another dimension. Check out the statistical breakdown below.

Good for him, apparently Condit didn't willingly back out of the GSP fight. His camp said GSP wanted to fight Diaz instead.

I always thought Nick Diaz was the most overrated fighter in MMA history - until Daley fight , then i was like WTF ? after BJ fight gotta admit he's great but still - GSP is gonna put him on his back never be in any danger. Unless he decides to toy with him like Rory toyed with Nate.

I agree,I always liked to watch him fight but I thought the same up until the Daley fight. After the Penn fight I would put him up there with the top p4p fighters.

Wrong - BJ broke the record for most significant strikes withstood.

Thank god it was a Zuffa and not a Showtime production so we didn't have to hear "Punches in bunches" endlessly.

BJ seems to have a quasi-fedor effect where his opponents who beat him go on to have really successful careers, but those that lose get dicked over hard. It really sucks for Jon Fitch.

GSP's strategy against Nick will be like attending Mass at a Whorehouse.

Wikipedia shows Nick Diaz having a loss to GSP "Submission (via being scared of the press conference)". Purty interestin'

OH NO! Nick Diaz doesn't like talking to the press. Too bad this is fighting not who's the best talker or who's less afraid of a press conference. He actually showed up last week to a presser.

Now on the other hand, GSP hasn't done anything impressive in 3 years.

Nam Phan must be pissed. He just set the record previously at last month's UFC 136.

I think landing significant strikes against BJ Penn would be 100x much more difficult than landing significant strikes against the likes of Leonard Garcia

Proof (as if you needed it) Diaz one of a small group of people in Strikeforce who could fight and win in the UFC.
Diaz is a genuine Champion and GSP is about to find this out the hard way.

I like that MiddleEasy is the official Nick Diaz hype website. Nick = People's Champion. Fuck GSP.

Everyone who thinks Nick is going to beat GSP is delusional. Admittedly, GSP will make it boring but he will win.

Didn't we just get done doing this dance? Wasn't BJ supposed throw Diaz the beating of lifetime and completely out class him? Round 1 went according to plan. Then Nick Diaz turned into Nick Fing Diaz in round 2 and tuned BJ up proper. Then Diaz came out for round 3 all like "well why the hell not BJ, if you like it. I love it" and layed the wood to BJ again. That wasn't even full on Nick "How you like that bitch" Diaz. Diaz won't come in the cage puckered up on his heels like eveyone else has. He's not scarred of GSP one bit, he's gonna goes go right at GSP and Im thinking Nick will be alright if it goes to ground, he can handle himself there too. No one is delusional for thinking Diaz can win.

Nick WILL beat GSP because GSP refuses to pull the trigger,and considering he has a really good gun, it's stupid. However GSP will realize this once he loses the title, but that's what it will take. Then a rematch will happen in which GSP will dominate and get it bakc. (

This is a hilarious thread. I am not sure where all these Diaz fans came from but there is no way in hell Nick can beat GSP. GSP will put Diaz on his back and pound away on him like an older brother beating on him. That fight will be so lopsided and Diaz will whine after saying "he's afraid to stand with me?". GSP is a class act.
