Georges St. Pierre vs Nick Diaz superfight now possible after UFC 129

Gsp-diaz_medium

Not only is it possible, it's damn near the only option for Georges St. Pierre at 170-pounds.

That's because he effectively cleaned out the welterweight division last night, April 30, 2011, by defeating Jake Shields at the Rogers Centre in Toronto at UFC 129

Shields essentially represented the last credible challenger in the UFC that doesn't make his home in a different weight class. However, he is NOT the last credible challenger in the division. There's a certain other Cesar Gracie fighter, who resides under the Zuffa banner, that has long felt he could take it to GSP.

Nick Diaz.

So could the fight ever happen? Here's Dana White's take on it:

"I imagine I could do whatever I wanted (with Nick Diaz), if I really wanted to but we have a contract with Showtime and he's a Showtime fighter. So, I don't know, we're going to have to see how this whole thing works out. But (Georges St. Pierre vs. Nick Diaz) is an interesting fight. Jake (Shields) said he'd like to see it."

Interesting may not be the right word. Necessary might better describe it.

And what does Shields have to say about all this?

Star-divide

"Of course I would love to see Nick get it, he's one of my best friends and I think he has a good shot. I think his style matches up pretty good. His pressure boxing could hopefully do what I couldn't and cut him off and put more pressure on him. We don't know what happens until we see it, that's why I'd like to see it."

Diaz most recently pasted Paul Daley on April 9, stopping "Semtex" via strikes in the very first round.

His "pressure boxing" game, which relies on a mixture of volume, power and relentlessly pushing forward, could very well give St. Pierre trouble.

He would also have the advantage of one of his teammates having basically scouted GSP for an entire five-round, 25 minute fight.

Of course, there are obstacles, mainly Diaz's professional boxing aspirations and his current status as a Showtime fighter, as Dana White noted.

But, as he also stated, he can more or less do what he wants. And that just might include putting together the very first crossover superfight since the purchase of Strikeforce.

Who wants to see it?

Nick vs Rory McDonald!!!

Come on, if James Toney can fight in the UFC and Akiyama can be fed to the sharks time and time again then anything’s possible.

I was very disappointed in Nate. He looked like shit in his standup and didn't engage at all.

Rory’s base looked great though, Hathaway is not scheduled, bring it on.

Great fight I agree, love these prospect vs prospect fights sometimes - when they make sense

Nate looks gunshy or something and predicatable. Maybe he’s not used to the size / strength but I really doubt it’s just that. I don’t know – I think he’s better than that personally.

Not to discredit an excellent beatdown. Well done Rory

by grapplefan on May 1, 2011 3:42 PM EDT up reply actions  

I like Nate, but that was pretty much what I was expecting from the fight.

He did look great against Davis, but after the Kim fight I thought he’d have trouble against McDonald. McDonald by decision at +200 was a steal because even though he can be controlled and beaten, Nate is still almost impossible to stop.

I think he just realized there is no way he will get George down.

George is way stronger and just brushed off (or hobbled off) every attempt, even when Shields had the leg in the middle of the cage.

Weird fight though, but the event was amazing. I didn’t go but watched every single fight live starting with facebook at 6pm. Greatest longest night of MMA.

Rory is the “Jon Jones” of the 170. That said they need to bring him along like they did Jones. He needs to fight his way up the ladder. It’ll be fun to watch his development.

What’s funny is “fight his way up the ladder” is what Rory said he was looking forward to in his post fight interview with Ariel.

Especially the way he lost.

Dominating a top WW like Condit for the majority of the fight was extremely impressive, especially for a guy so young. I think training at Tri Star is going to be great for his career.

In so much as he’s: young, very dynamic, with a bright future – and the only one who seems to have the natural gifts to be a dominant champion one day. He has a dynamic style like Jones as well.

i want gsp (lack of a killer instinct) to fight nick diaz.

i want to see gsp stand and bang with diaz. shields even messed up his face a little. just imagine what diaz would do? i can’t believe how scared gsp was to goto the ground and finish an obviously hurt shields. it will be pick your poison with diaz. stand and gsp gets jabbed and liver punched or take diaz to the ground and get submitted. i think diaz knows now he can beat gsp in the octagon. i can’t wait for this to happen. to the guy above, rory macdonald put on a good show but have him face ellenberger and then we go from there.

IDK

Nick is one of my Fav’s but I’m not convinced that his wrestiling TDD is where it needs to be to fight GSP.

That said I would love to see this fight. I think Nick has earned it, and I think that if you want Nick to “calm down” give him the big fights / respect that he’s earned and you’ll get a happier Nick Diaz.

If Dana goes and sits down with him, as he said he was going to do, offers him top fighter money which I think he will do, and a fight with GSP we will see Nick tow company line AND fight his ass off

I guess…I just can’t imagine GSP not taking Nick down and pounding him. Jake is a big dude and only has JJ, so GSP kept it standing. Nick doesn’t seem very strong and I think the gameplan would be to manhandle him on the ground. It’s the smartest way to fight Nick.

Did you miss the first round when GSP was making Jake look like an amature?

I’m not making excuses, GSP won with one eye. What’s Jakes excuse for not being able to finish a fighter with no depth perception? My point was don’t use the out come of an anomalous eye poke (punch) to base the next fight. You should base your predictions on a 2 eyed GSP where he destroys his opponents throughout the fight. Did you notice how Nick’s brother got schooled by a well rounded wrestler? (they are very similar) Have you noticed that Nick hasn’t fought anyone that was a great wrester since he was losing to them in the UFC? You aren’t paying attention if you haven’t noticed that a great wrestler will make a great striker, not so great (see Sonnen vs Silva, or Alves vs GSP).

whose eye was worse, hominicks or gsp?

i saw a cut on the eyelid and a cut below the eye and basically a blood filled eye for hominick. that guy fought till the end vs aldo and got on top off him and was striking aldo to try to finish the fight. gsp had some redness and after the fight gives excuse after excuse b/c his countryman are booing him b/c he was soo scared to go down to the canvas vs an injured shields. if he had a bad eye you would want to be close to your opponent. so for almost four rounds all gsp has is jabs for shields with his supposed one eye? please. nick ain’t nate so throw that out the window and when diaz gets his shot when he opens a can of whoop azz and wins the title i’ll bet your guy georges cries while nick just laughs. all those wrestlers he lost to were in the past like when he was 20 thru 22 years old. i think he has learned alot over the years and has gotten better.can’t wait to see gsp’s face after diaz gets done with him. mad props to hominik who truly had a bad eye and tried to finish off a p4p great and gsp shows again why he is the most boring unentertaining champion the ufc has. peace.

Nick Diaz is a fighter that fights his opponents at their strength, not GSP. GSP taking down Shields with less than 30 seconds does not count fighting to Shields strength since we all know it would be tough for Shields to submit GSP in less than 30 secs. This would be the one GSP fight that would be exciting to watch in recent memory b/c Diaz can fight GSP on the ground or on the feet.

and smash elbows on his head for 25 minutes straight. I bet Nick is going to try and fight Rory since he beat the shit out of his brother

agree.

diaz’s wrestling blows. and gsp knows enough bjj to stay out of anything crazy.

and i wouldn’t count gsp out in boxing either. what makes gsp so dangerous in boxing is that he constantly makes his opponent question when he’ll go in for the shoot. that makes opponents hesitate in their boxing.

gsp wanted nothing to do with shields’ ground game. i don’t think he’ll respect diaz’s ground game as much.

You got that right "what makes gsp so dangerous in boxing is that he constantly makes his opponent question when he’ll go in for the shoot. that makes opponents hesitate in their boxing"

Problem is Diaz could give a shit if he gets taking down so hes coming foward and steamrolling GSP’s face!

that might be true.

Hard to tell how Nick would do. The last good wrestlers he faced were Sherk and Diego. He lost to both of them. I think he should prove himself against Fitch or Kos before fighting someone like GSP.

good point.

diaz still needs to work on his wrestling. if he can stop gsp’s takedowns, he’ll win. but i don’t think diaz will ever be able to stop gsp’s takedowns.

and his bjj isn’t that much better than gsps.

GSP could lay and hump Nick for a win but I really doubt he would do that considering all the shit everyone is going to be giving him right now

It would be 10x worse if he tried that his next fight. So im positive he would not go the way of ‘Fitch’ vs Diaz.

Either way Diaz is the last big fight for him out there and it would be very interesting.

Gsp Vs Diaz interesting...

On the feet I think Diaz would dismantle GSP, no question. After Diaz KO’d Daley and after what Shields did to GSP – I would put money on Diaz having a first round knock out. Nicks aggression and volume striking would overwhelm GSP and break him. And if by some miracle GSP made it outta the first round on the feet, there is no way in hell he would last 4 more vs Nick.

The ground aspect to this match is what makes it interesting. When Nick was in the UFC previously he shown that his kryptonite is vs strong wrestlers…..and GSP happens to be the best wrestler at Welterweight. However, Nick is a BJJ Wizard and could submit GSP or at least make him hesitant to go to the ground.

This is an excellent fight for DIAZ to have a chance to prove himself vs a wrestler, its been years since he has fought one and he has improved since then in many ways.

There is absolutly no way.

lol people still talk about Diaz sticking out his chin

it don’t matter he still won’t get knocked out he showed it with Daley, he might get dropped, but not put to sleep and the only reason he got dropped was because Daley’s power

by 49erEmpire on May 1, 2011 5:10 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

Actually

According to Nick at least, He was never hurt during the Daley fight. Daley did not drop him. He had Diaz off balance, so Diaz chose to drop to the mat willingly. It makes sense too, if Diaz lost his balance and stayed on his feet it would have gave Daley a chance to do real damage. If Diaz chose to go to the mat, as he did, then what is Daley gonna do – fall into the BJJ blackbelts gaurd? Sounds like a matter of smart decision making to me.

But that is what Nick Diaz says – so who knows. Maybe Daley did drop him. It does look that way. I can see Nicks argument as possibly being valid too….. If Daley dropped Nick, he recovered so incredibly fast that Daleys shot was damn near irrelevant anyway.

Either way, the outcome of the fight was the same, Nick was the one who knocked Daley out.

Jon " Bones " Jones new light heavyweight champion. Even if Jones got struck flush in the face he would recover and defeat whoever is in front of him. I told everyone the fight would be easy. Almost felt sorry for Rua. Anderson Silva would never fight "Bones". He is too scared to fight the real P4P champion. Nick Diaz is near the peak of his career. 2 more fights and then he fights for UFC Glory. The Wolfman. The most popular man on Mania and the Elder Statesman on all things MMA.

It means very little when he isn't as strong as Jake.

GSP would completely nullify Diaz ground skills with his strength, like he did with BJ. He would also be punching him in the face over a hundred times. Nick cuts a lot easier than BJ’s leather skin, so the fight would likely be stopped due to a cut.

I told you kids Rua was gonna run through Jones, but no one listened. The hype train has made its last stop, and the "mighty" Jon Jones has fallen.

condit has a good enough take down defense to beat kim and lets face it the stun gun only has a ground game if its standing then we know whos gonna win there its time condit gets some glory

NO WW is going to beat GSP. He's cleaned out the division. Diaz would

get smashed. Done with this stupid shit. Can’t believe how many people really think Diaz could do shit to GSP. Y’all are trippin balls! I’ll be back to tell everyone that “I was right, and now what?” You know the usual..

People who don't have the patience for the technical aspect of MMA should think about getting into another sport. THIS ONE requires BRAINS.

Fake Shields?

The same Shields who just fought GSP, the same guy who took a round or maybe even 2 from a guy who has not lost a round in the last 30? I beleive shields to be a legit contender and I think he proved it.

Look at all these petty Canadians crying like itches making out like GSP’s last fight was fantastic. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, you gsp fans are the worst. Stick to watching TUF, I don’t need you in my sport

Or just go watch hockey, those guys fight more than gsp LOL. Thug life Nick Diaz would thug all over GSP until the ref pulls the thug off GSP, straight up thuggin. What you Canadians going to do then? Get back to TUF kids.

I told you kids Rua was gonna run through Jones, but no one listened. The hype train has made its last stop, and the "mighty" Jon Jones has fallen. Shogun tore him up with his muay thai, and dominated in every aspect of the fight. He came in fully prepared and got the job done, like I knew he would. Still the greatest p4p of all time. And STILL UFC LHW Champ, Mauricio Shogun Rua.

Are you ever tired of defending GSP? Canadians go back to TUF before I slap someone up. Or go put a GSP fight on if you’re tired of defending him Zino, it’ll help you sleep.

i am tired of the arguments. yes. Honestly D

IM ready to start throwing all my support behind Rory…. i will always be a GSP fan, but as far as my #1 goes – i think hes got an awesome future

GSP is still the champ, nobody likes it, but he isnt losing to anyone they keep throwing at him. He wont lost to anyone in the WW division either…. so… to get a head start im thinking of hopping on the Waterboy wagon for my #1 WW. GSP is too easy to see the wins coming.

Sad, the guy's done more than anyone in the WW division and people still talk a lot of shit

Just goes to show, people’s opinions really don’t mean shit. The bulk of the intelligentsia are those of low attention spans. And so many people are JUST COMING INTO THIS SPORT. It’s the majority of the fans, and they’re just fucking dumb.

why does every possible future GSP fight have to be a ‘SUPERFIGHT’ i dont care for seeing gsp vs silva, i dont care for the diaz bros and im sure gsp would win that.
Last night GSP did a great job and defended his belt again, jake shields failed badly to implement any sort of game plan and did next to nothing. It makes me feel like ‘mma fans’ (using that phrase loosly as seems to be more whining that fan apprechiation) only like a champ to win every fight with a sub or ko finish or they want the reigning champ to loose ?

To be fair a fighter can engage more in their area of comfort without getting the finish.

Do you think it’s unreasonable to wonder why he didn’t throw more punches against somebody he clearly outclasses on the feet? Didn’t GSP himself say “don’t blink”?

by grapplefan on May 1, 2011 5:19 PM EDT up reply actions  

GSP did awesome!

I am a Shields fan but GSP outclassed Shields which I anticipated but on the other hand Shields did much better than I would have ever believed. Good fight, now i want to see GSP vs Nick Diaz!!!

Dont fight Anderson Silva is the first rule of mma, but after saying that GSp would be Diaz easy , talk all u wont about diaz boxing dont matter in that fight Ground and pound is his goal to the end.

a garbage fighter and no power at all , he never won a round , even with those 2 jabs

by 1#RaptorsFan on May 1, 2011 7:18 PM EDT reply actions  

Raptor Man I understand your disdain for shields but GSP did not poke himself in the eye.

Shields definitely won 1 round. 2 judges in CANADA gave him 2 rounds dude. I am not trying to offend anyone just looking at the facts.
