KJ Noons: 'Nick Diaz is a great fighter -- he's just an idiot'

Nickdiaz_medium

Props: Sherdog.com

Quoteworthy:

"[A Nick Diaz rematch is] definitely in the mix. That's something I want to do, he wants to do it and Strikeforce wants to do it. It's just a matter of making it happen. The whole Nick Diaz thing, he's a great fighter. You look at everything since he first fought (and) I never took away that he's a good fighter. I just said he's an idiot. I don't like his personality. He's a good fighter. As a person, he's a dumb motherf----- ... I'm taking nothing away from him. As a person I just don't like him. Actually I feel sorry for the guy. Too bad he's not better on the outside. He'd actually be a better star and people would like him better. I'm not talking s---; that's just the plain truth."

Former Elite XC Lightweight Champion and current Strikeforce attraction KJ Noons talks about his inevitable rematch with Nick Diaz now that both fighters have set up shop in the San Jose-based organization. Diaz lost to Noons back in 2007 via TKO due to cuts and has since had surgery to correct that area of his face that was so easily opened. He's also gone 7-0 with seven finishes following their bout while Noons has competed just three times in MMA, including a close split decision win over Conor Huen on June 16. Noons vs. Diaz II -- Who ya' got?

Agreed, but

you’re not exactly Harvard material either.

Would LOVE a rematch and based on their recent performances I got Diaz winning.

yup

plus he came off as an idiot himself with the whole “I want to be a pro boxer” thing that never happened

by olegb139 on Jun 23, 2010 5:58 PM EDT up reply actions  

It happened, he just wasn't any good

he lost a 6 rd decision to a clubfighter and then fought a few more times against some real cans. Like losing record type cans, and wasn’t even able to finish anyone. Nothing special in the boxing world for sure. I was actually kind of hyped to see how he would do, he was beyond dissapointing. F’ing Mickey Rourke was a better pro boxer than KJ.

True

I would pick Diaz in the rematch. KJ is right about one thing though, Diaz isn’t exactly MENSA material. I hate listening to him talk.

Agreed...Prime exaple of being a product of your enviornment...

Have to be tough as nails to grow up in that area. Street Smarts trump, books smarts in certain areas, unfortunatly…I understand the whole keeping it real thingand maybe once he settles down with a lady or something he gets out of Stockton, but I can’t understand why he is not out of there already. Him and his brother should have a nice place in Sacramento, Lodi, or Discovery Bay…He has made enough coin to get into a nice area.

I grew up in the ghetto (the South Bronx in the late 70’s early 80’s during the Heroin epidemic and the crack epidemic and Carter compared it to Beruit when he visited). We moved upstate and could not understand the mentality of upper to upper middle class teens wanting to be ghetto. Funny all my friends upstate wanted to be ghetto while all my friends in the ghetto want to ghettout. Of course they wanted to be ghetto until I brought them down to the South Bronx in the middle of the night. Suddenly they are saying, hey make sure you don’t leave us alone (when going to block parties) or don’t take to long when I left them in the car while, I went in to the PJ’s to get my friends.

Preach!

I hope they fight again

So Diaz can wear that ass out. Noons cut his last time, i don’t see that happening again. I got Diaz by K.O. in this one, probably around the end of the first, or early in the second. Noons doesnt have the cardio to deal with Diaz, and where Diaz is alot better since they fought, Noons looked like shit against a C level fighter his last time out.

by MasterWhiteTiger on Jun 23, 2010 6:13 PM EDT reply actions  

It wasn't just the cut

Noons won that first round, he cut him with jab and a knee, and dropped him with a huge overhand right.

But, I agree I have Diaz winning the rematch, he’s looked much better since, Noons hasn’t.

Shogun lost a close decision! Everyone get crazy!

yeah, Diaz isnt a bad ass, hes a child who got sucked into and impressed by retarded gang culture. Theres a differece.

I dont know much about noons, but this quote got a few laughs and head nods form me.

After punking out on the rematch

with Diaz and giving up his belt by refusing to defend it. I would have to say if Diaz is an idiot, then Noons is a big pussy.

KJ would put dick butter all up in diaz rectum just like he did the first time they fought….he sent nick’s bitch ass to the operating table…that wasnt just a cut…that was straight up surgery…nick STILL paying that hospital bill…it aint like fighters have the best health coverage on the planet, he paid a lot out of the pocket…it isnt like eliteXC’s bankrupt ass was paying for his surgery…

KJ KJ KJ KJ KJ KJ KJ KJ KJ KJ KJ KJ KJ KJ KJ KJ KJ KJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111

did you notice that after KJ’s last fight dude was looking just like diaz looked after their 1st fight?

when nick asks the question “what what in the butt” the answer is “KJ!!”

Lol,

I Bet

a coworker a Soda that KJ will win the rematch. I can see I am in the minority here but I stand by that bet on Mania. Not the soda bet, LOL. Just that I got KJ in this one.

Do not. I repeat, do not, go to mma-core.com. I made the mistake of watching a couple UFC 108 bouts on there and I am still trying to get all the viruses of my computer. Ridiculous! You've been warned.

Wouldn't he fight Gilbert first if he is in title contention?

I don’t think he can beat Gilbert let alone a rematch with Nick. Nick is light years ahead as a fighter, compared to the last time they fought. KJ barely beat Huen who only had 12 days notice to repare for that fight. Nick Diaz via:Submission round 2.

Noons is right, Diaz is a great fighter and a dumb MF

If he had his shit together, he could be making more money in the UFC and be a definite contender at WW. I hope he does finally wise up because he could be scary good with the skills he’s got.
