Nick Diaz will challenge Georges St. Pierre for the UFC welterweight title at UFC 137 on Oct. 29 at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.
That much we know.
There are still many questions, however, regarding how exactly this superfight came to be, especially considering all the misinformation bandied about in recent days.
Thankfully, Cesar Gracie has been talking to anyone with two ears. And from his mouth, we've been able to piece together a few points that will hopefully answer some of the larger questions.
But they will also only open the door for a few more. It's a vicious cycle, but what can ya' do?
Here's a rundown of what Gracie told MMAFighting and USA Today about the situation surrounding the superfight and what we've been able to deduce from his words:
- The fight was announced today, which is when the contract arrived at Zuffa offices. Diaz signed the bout agreement yesterday.
- Diaz has signed a new eight-fight deal with Zuffa that will reportedly allow him to fight in both Strikeforce and UFC.
- The deal he signed did NOT involve him boxing and, in fact, expressly forbid it.
- Zuffa allegedly more or less told Gracie and Diaz that if he gave up boxing they would give him GSP and that's all it took for the pugilist dreams to die.
- The fight location came down to either somewhere in Canada or Las Vegas. Gracie told UFC he would prefer Vegas, but would fight wherever.
- Gracie hopes this marks the end of Diaz's run in Strikeforce and said he believes the only reason Diaz would return is if he loses this fight against St. Pierre.
- Gracie says that while dominant wrestlers have given Diaz a great deal of trouble in the past, he will counter the strong grappling game of GSP with his "true black-belt jiu-jitsu."
There you have it, Maniacs.
Was this the right move for UFC to make, all things considered with the welterweight division? Or would you have rather seen St. Pierre wait for a superfight against Anderson Silva?
Happy with today's announcement?
As always, stay tuned to MMAmania.com for more on St. Pierre vs. Diaz and UFC 137 details as they become available.

Well I'm guessing that deal with Diaz fighting in both UFC and SF only stands if...
Diaz loses cause if he wins there’s no point to go back to SF and defend against lessor comp. He’d stay with the UFC.
The people have voted and popular opinion declares that Anderson Silva is not only the P4P king but also the GOAT!
The Jon Jones / Rashad Evans situation can be compared to a man who remembers when his older brother used to get the better of him but now that he is grown can take him but still has that bit of fear and respect for his older bro even though he's above him now.
Also, the fight should be in Vegas cause GSP doesn't need to fight in Canada a 3rd time in a row.

True dat
he cant even finish a fight at home
Never heard that one before.
Makes sense.
Shields never eyepokes his opponent, so why all of a sudden is he throwing eyepokes every round against a guy he knows he can’t takedown?? Highly suspicious.

And that's the word.
About your quote...
you do know that it was a punch and not a poke that caught GSP’s eye right? Alot of people are pretending that’s not the case but they’re wrong. They showed this in a replay during the fight. People just don’t want to hear that GSP was getting out struck by Shields at certain points towards the end and the poke from a punch happens and is part of the game.

You can't be certain what caused the injury.
What you can be sure of is that Poke Shields threw several fingers at GSP’s eyes. I am of the opinion that it was part of the plan to win at all cost and deal with the consequences after. The problem is, there were no consequences and that’s a shame because more fighters might get on with the tactic since the rewards FAR OUTWEIGHS the consequences.

Look at this video and tell me that kind of open hand strikes to the eye is worthy of a pro fighter let alone an elite one.

How do you know
What if it was Jakes plan to throw open handed strikes. But not to get an eye poke. Maybe he threw his strike with open hands, hoping he could grab onto GSPs arms during GSPs counter strikes, in order to clinch for a takedown.
I hope Nick comes totally prepared and takes it to GSP.
It’s possible he can pull out the win, don’t know how probable though.
I was sold to the idea of GSP fighting Silva.
Maybe later
Maybe never
Maybe it’s better
Diaz will suffer a complete domination
that will end in a unanimous decision
and the shit storm will rage on

It's no secret at this point that GSP doesn't want Silva so...
he should just come out and say that instead of beating around the bush. Silva no longer wants to fight at LHW so he came out and said that but he said this long before Jones was champ so people can stop pretending that’s the reason cause Silva has still at least fought at 205 and fought guys who have fought at 205 and destroyed them better than any other 205er has including Jones!
With all of that said, GSP should just man up and say he wants to say at WW cause most who know fighting knows he wouldn’t do well at MW anyway.

you think he's scared?
Come on man.
Isn’t lapping the WW division good enough anymore?
It’d be like callin AS a pussy for not fighting Bones
I don’t blame a guy for wanting to stay in his own division. Neither guy has anything to prove imo.

I never said he was "scared"...
dont’ think a fighter like him would be scared but he knows he wouldn’t do well in MW like he has at WW. There is a reason why fighters are separated with weight classes cause they make a difference. He simply doesn’t want to go to MW which should be clear to everybody who’s paying attention.

I already talked about this above...
Silva said he didn’t want to fight anymore at LHW long before Jones but at least he showed he can destroy there too… and in ways unlike any other LHW even! Don’t misunderstand what I’m saying. GSP isn’t scared but doesn’t want to fight at MW and should “man up” by admitting it.

So I assumed you meant he was scared.

Oswald...Iv'e been reading your posts
and i am flat out confused. haha I obviously understand them bt how do you feel about GSP?

Where are you confused?
My opinions are often pretty clear but let’s get it out. You just want to know my thoughts about GSP? lol

Haha I mean you clearly wrote what you had in my mind.
Im simply wonderin how you feel about the guy simple as that lol

Well if you want me to get deep... lol
I used to be a big GSP fan. However, I hate fighters that don’t finish and it says something about a fighters skills when they can never finish. More than anything I get tired of mindless GSP fans the same way that I used to get annoyed and have to out debate mindless Fedor fans. When I say mindless, you shoudl know what I mean about that. My guy is obviously Anderson but I’m not mindless about him. I get just as pissed as anybody when he fucks around in one of his fights but at the same time you can’t always blame Anderson when the other guy shows up and is scared to engage with him.
Getting back to GSP. It’s clear he’s not the P4P best and soon might not even beat top 2 or 3 with Aldo and Jones coming along but natraully you have to give him the #2 spot at this point. I don’t bag on him as much as I used to cause I thought he laid on people too much but stay active just enough to not get stood up but not active enough to finish. People simply can’t keep making excuses for the guy. It’s like when I tried to cover the tracks for BJ and Shogun only losing cause they had bad cardio but after a certain point when it seems like half the time that problem still exists how can you continue to defend them where as GSP it’s more than half the time.
I could keep going but it would be way too much but I more so get annoyed with mindless fans more than GSP himself but they seem to be less and less of them these days and more and more people are starting to see what I saw in him a few years ago same with me saying Fedor wasn’t the #1 HW anymore even before he lost since you have to fight top guys and that the top guys in the UFC would beat him. Now almost everybody sees this and it’s great. lol Although I still think he’s a top 10 guy. I’m not righting him off or anything and can’t wait for him vs Hendo. I do think Hendo will win a D over him cause neither will get KO’d or Sub. whew lol

Fingers probably all stiff now haha.
I definitely understand. I’d call myself a pretty big GSP fan. Its dropping less and less everyday trust me. Especially as a dedicated fan, its hard to not make excuses for your favorite fighters, but at the same time it’s getting way to repetitive and its not even enjoyable to watch. I love when he dominates guy, but its becoming more of a safe fight than a fight. It’s clear he is always pissed after he goes to a decision and always says how “Im disappointed in myself and next time….”you know how the story goes…and I definitely agree with the hendo call. I think he may drop fedor, but i dont necessarily see Fedor getting KO-ed. Im rooting for Hendo in that fight. Anyway, I just want GSP to go back to pre serra, take some risks on the feet or ground and finish and freakin opponent.

Yeah... pre Serra GSP is what everyone wants I'm sure.

I think many just want to see him get knocked out like he got by Serra. You can’t deny that can you?

out of the goddamn ring if it were up to me. But I know you’re asking Oswald so I’ll let you two discuss this haha

I liked to see dumbass "UFChump" come back in here and
talk some more since he clearly doesn’t have to mental capacity to conduct a intelligent debate. Plus, if he wants to insult I’ll destroy him there as well… just ask Wolf or K Dub about that… the rest I either forgot their name beat them so bad they left here for good.

First off, Fedor will knock out Hendo in the 1st round, and im a big Hendo fan( after Bisbing? luv the guy) but a good big man almost always beats a good small guy.Take that to the bank.GSP, you make some good points, since Serra, he just too cautious. I think its his trainers, Jackson in particular.He’s wildly talented, he just has to turn it loose. Nobody wants to watch a guy jabbing his way to wins. I predict he is going to come out and give Diaz an ass whipping. Silva is brilliant, but who has he really fought? Belfort is well past his prime. Forrest? Nice guy, tomato can. He beat Sonnen with a major injury. Bones is easily the class of the UFC. He will be proving that for years to come. Head and shoulders above everybody else. P4P? “Bones” Jones……
Really?
Hardy, Serra and Kos are all better huh? lol Vitor KO’d Franklin in his last fight which shows he still a top guy since no1 else but Silva and Machida has put away Rich. Forrest just came off of his title loss, is an ex champ and beat champs like Rampage and Shogun. Plus was winning against Rashad until he got caught. He finished Chael while being injured and with Chael failing the drug test. I mean seriously… he beaten all the top guys. Who’s above who he’s faced?

He doesn’t get the SF belt?
LOL!
Never mind. I don’t care. And neither does GSP

That’s bullshit. They offered him tons of money not only for the GSP fight (including PPV portion), but also large payouts for further fights win or lose. That is the only way he would accept the no-boxing clause.
Fedor.
I think it's legit cause it's not like he'd be making the big money in boxing.

Wonder how much paper nick gets? Theyll sell the ish out of this card and nick isn’t exactly hard to sell, he’s marketable. Most kids will buy GSP fights knowing he’s boring..makes for a huge fight.

I will take a similar sig bet as the one I had against kg12 in the GSP-Shields fight:
I win if it goes to decision or if Diaz wins. You win only if GSP finishes.
GSP is a -350 favorite, that is the only way to make it even. We can even add 20$ to that bet in addition to 1 week sig, if you feel confident that the french boredom machine can finish.
Fedor.
And NEW..
UFC Welterweight Champion, Nick Diaz!!! Thank god finally a true mixed martial artist who puts it on the line and finishes people. Even in Diaz’s losses he has looked impressive, hence his fights with Karo and Sanchez…IMO he won those.
Undisputed Sig Bet Champion on the TitoOrtiz/Fight Pros forums!!
BJ Penn, best P4P fighter on the planet. I'll still stand by that all day long, bitches.
Anderson Silva is Chael Sonnen's bitch.
GSP is Jake Shields bitch.

I don't think it goes five rds
Diaz subs gsp from bottom or GSP stops winging overhand rights trying to force a KO and does the smart thing and tries to cut nick up early on for a dr stoppage. I really hope this doesn’t go the distance either way, it would be a shame if it did IMO.. Looking forward to seeing it though!

Nah...
Diaz has never been KO’d and GSP doesn’t have nearly the KO power of others that Diaz has gone against. Plus, GSPs sub D is good enough to stay with Diaz’ ground game. I guarantee it goes 5 rounds. I’d put money on it.

Please! with your limited knowledge of UFC and MMA in general, you should refrain from any more comments. Study the sport! Just joking dude! Diego and Karo are mid level fighters,even though they were close, that means nothing. Fitch, B.J., Kosheck, would give Nick Diaz an ass whipping. Those are just three off the top of my head. Diaz is a tomato can with limited skills, his face will look like raw hamburger at the end.
Be fun to see another loud mouthed Gracie fighter take a beating. This guy hasn’t fought anybody, an over the hill Shamrock?, Paul Daley? I remember Karo beating him and Diego too. GSP will destroy him. Nothing worse than a shit talking fighter that cant back it up. Hey, that describes all the Gracie guys! GSP in 5 rd lop- sided decision. Nicks face will look worse than Fitch’s, if that’s possible.
Dear mma gods
please let GSP destroy this foul-mouthed, putrid, disgusting, make-me-wanna-puke punk. BTW I dont care for Diaz.

I’d much rather see GSP fight interesting competition in his weight class than jump up for some silly superfight. Besides, Nick Diaz is a lot more interesting to the average fan than Anderson Silva (who is huge on message boards but not so much off the internet)

I like how GSP's supposed to be 5'11" (according to the recent tale of the tape), and Andy's 6'2"..
I think there’s at least 4 or 5 inches difference. But what ev.

actually this gif gets funnier the more i see it...
Kinda like he says “fuck you” then wiggles his fingers around and bobbles his head about … looks like an 8 year old…
Making sammich’s, fetching beers, and making him look good in pools and bets……being Cali’s bitch really is as great as it sounds…now I know why Jay loves it so much.

I'd probably like him more, if he didn't have this
“What?!?!?! I’ll fuck you up!!!” mentality. Shows lack of integrity. But it’s not that I don’t like nick, I think he’s an awesome fighter. One of my favorites to watch.

hes a douche... and thats why i think i like him
I like the arrogance… hes a cocky dude but hes not going around saying hes not cocky… saying hes not a douche… He just a nutcase and reminds me of what me and my brothers have been like in the past growing up… Just seems he never grew up and he can fight a lot better than any of us is all…

of course, if I had a face like his, and I sounded like Elmer Fudd, I'm sure I would
be flipping off the world too.

This is an awesome fight!
First of all how the hell are you guys gonna say Nick sucks but he’s fun to watch?!? Isnt that a contradiction? If he sucks whats the point of watching him fight? That makes no sense to me. Secondly how does he suck and he’s on a 10 fight win streak against some real tough competition? This is GSP’s toughest opponent to date because he has good boxing and great jj and is the only 70 pounder who will fight GSP so I’m excited for this fight!

I've never understood the whole 8 fight contract concept
Whats the point of signing such a lengthy contract with zuffa when they have the ability to cut you anytime they want? Doesn’t that kinda defeat the purpose? Can someone elaborate on this?
