Dana White: Nick Diaz vs Georges St. Pierre could happen this summer

Embrace the hate, y'all.
Apparently that's what UFC Welterweight Champion Georges St. Pierre has done while he's been on the sidelines rehabbing his torn up knee. And it's helping the process along nicely, according to UFC President Dana White.
If he keeps going like he's going, White believes it's entirely possible the 170-pound king can "Rush" back into action this summer, far sooner than the target return date of November St. Pierre pegged recently on an episode of Inside MMA.
As White explains to Ariel Helwani, the French-Canadian is motivated by the extreme hate he feels for Nick Diaz. And he's praying every night that he beats Carlos Condit at UFC 143 on Feb. 4 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
"GSP's rehab could not be going better. I kid you not, he texts me every day. Tonight during the fight, he was texting me pictures of him kicking, of him doing things. He says, 'I am praying every night when I go to bed that Nick Diaz wins this fight.' I have never seen Georges St. Pierre hate somebody. He hates Nick Diaz. I've never seen him hate somebody. I've never seen him so motivated to fight somebody and to beat somebody as he is Nick Diaz. He's ahead of schedule now, being the freak of nature that he is and the hard worker and dedicated athlete that he is, I think he's going to be back sooner than doctors anticipated. (Perhaps the summer time), yes."
So if everything works out over the winter, we could be looking at Junior dos Santos vs. Alistair Overeem for the heavyweight championship, Chael Sonnen vs. Anderson Silva for the middleweight crown and Nick Diaz vs. Georges St. Pierre to unify the welterweight titles.
Let's not be hasty, though.
St. Pierre's knee injury was such that if he returns sooner than he should and something goes wrong, the results could be disastrous. Career-ending, even. Is that really worth the risk?
Then again, he really is a freak of nature and maybe it will all work out in the end. Or maybe Carlos Condit will defeat Diaz and none of this will matter come Feb. 5.
Stay tuned, Maniacs.

Well his Jiu Jitsu functional in mixed martial arts. Being good in the Gi and doing well in no-Gi grappling matches do not always translate well into MMA.
r u being serious?

of course I am. Why wouldnt I be? You are telling me that Nick Diaz has ever showed his BJJ translate against world class wrestlers in MMA? Because you can be a black belt in BJJ like Royce Gracie and still come into MMA and be dominated by a wrestler (Matt Hughes)
Hughes isnt just a wrestler
He also has black belt level BJJ
Odd thing happened today... had to re-sgn up for MMAMania. No clue why!

wtf
are you talking about? “black belt level”? Compared to his standup?
Hughs is all wrestler, and not very good at that; slower than molasses.
He's actually right
Joe rogan said it himself, not that his word is prophecy lol. From the people I know who have personally rolled with Royce, they all say he’s about purple belt level by today’s standards, this coming from teammates of mine from AKA. Let’s be honest, Royce was tapping ppl out back when nobody in mma knew wtf jiu jitsu was….. That’s like when I tap out my buddies just fuckin around. Matt owned Royce on the ground, nearly submitting him. He passed mounted and took Royce’s back with ease. His armbar on Georges was beautiful, and his submission of Riggs was crafty too. Matt is a very good submission grappler, to call him black belt level is obviously debatable but not ludicrous.
by Mr.Italiano on Jan 21, 2012 10:18 PM EST up reply actions
True enough.
His submission of GSP was indeed a thing of beauty. So was his front headlock on Almeida.
All in all, Hughes has 20 wins via submission and only 4 losses via submission. I do not respect the man, but I do respect his ground skills.

matt is more of a black belt
than rashad will ever be and only one of them was actually awarded said belt. That’s bullshit
pride never die.
Incorrect.
Hughes has NO belt in bjj, he just trained with jeremy horn, who is a black belt.
Nick has competed in some high level no gi competitions. Believe me, I’ve trained with him. He’s far superior on the ground, which is funny considering people like to label Nick as a dumbass. I’d like to see Nick roll with Werdum, personally.

Vinny was a trainer at Cesar Gracies...
When nick was still a brown belt. Nick probably spent a good amount of time learning from Vinny.
GSP couldn't even perform blue belt submissions on Dan Hardy.
He may be a good defensive BJJ practioner, but his offense is laughable at best.

Everyone has an opinion, if you do not like mine that is okay. Guard passing is just as much a part of Jiu Jitsu as submissions.

Wrestler...
That is the thing everyone seems to forget about GSP. He was not a wrestler when he came into the UFC. He was a kickboxer. Listen this is the thing. GSP is a more of a well rounded mixed martial artist than a lot of his peers. And has just as many ways to win this fight than Diaz does. If not more.
GSP has one way to win and we all know what that is......
Anderson Silva is by far the number one P4P king!!! But now Tito is closing in! lol Maybe not, but I'm so fn happy that he beat Bader! The excuses were really getting to me, but when he wins, we don't hear about them.
Passing Hardys guard is hardly an achievement.

How many of his opponents posses the skills Nick does on the ground? Thiago is a striker, Koscheck is a wrestler, Hardy is not great at anything.

However, everything pre Matt Serra is irrelevant. That GSP no longer exists. The GSP of late has failed to execute submissions and failed to capitalize when in dominant positions.
Nick schools GSP on the ground, easily.

if you mean by becoming the only person to ever stop bj penn, battering fitch and koscheck in ways nobody else ever could, being the first man to beat jake shields in like 6 years and beating both alves and hardy in that time
the question here shouldn’t even be about GSP not finishing people, it should be can nick diaz stop GSP? no.. he got submitted once and learned from it. diaz will be on his back, and trying to throw his pillow punches at somebody actually moving around not just a stationary target
Pillow punches???
Lol he’s the only guy to TKO Daley, & did you see what he did to BJs face??? You sound ridiculous
by Mr.Italiano on Jan 21, 2012 10:58 PM EST up reply actions
You are the one who is ridiculous
You’re also absurd, moronic and just not a very clear thinker. Diaz didn’t TKO Dlaey or smash BJ’s face with the power of his punches. He did it with an accumilation of punches. Everyone knows that except you El Woppo.
his punch's are harder than they look

The only thing that matters is GSP has fought against some of the best 170 pounders in MMA. Who has Nick Diaz beaten lately? A BJP who is out of shape and was clearly fighting in the wrong weight class.
Gsp's mma jits is shit hot
Just because he is not tapping anyone doesn’t mean he’s not good. His control, guard passing and submission defence is all very good. Has everyone forgotten the bj second fight.
I agree with the guy who is copping the shit above.
Gsp would dominate Diaz on the ground. Top position ground and pound all night long.

I'm totally un-opinionated on the matter
but you just brought up Koscheck losing to Sanchez after something like 5 months of mma training as a way to downplay Koscheck…your argument is far far weaker
Sakuraba beats Silva, Aoki would beat Miller and Vitor Belfort didn't deserve his title shot - In my opinion, the craziest points I've read on this site...
Nick lost to Sanchez
And Koscheck beat Sanchez, also Hendricks knocked Fitch out, but compared to the 5 round mutilation that GSP put on that face, I would say it was alot worse what GSP did, not Hendricks.
by Punisher450 on Jan 22, 2012 10:36 AM EST up reply actions
Hendricks managed fitch even better than gsp
by hexbreaker on Jan 21, 2012 7:46 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
No no
Lets be honest, Alves battered KOS just as badly and Paulo Thiago put him away with 2 punches. Hughes stopped BJ first. Hendricks put Fitch out in 12 seconds. And your Shields argument is only valid if you actually think he beat kampmann lol not to mention ellenberger put a worse beating on shields in 50 seconds than GSP did in 25 minutes. GSP is well so well rounded and athletic that he out strikes grapplers and out grapples strikers. That excludes Serra & penn, whom he used his size, wrestling, and athleticism to bully. Diaz is the first guy who GSP will not have a significant advantage over either striking or on the mat, in fact most consider Diaz superior to GSP in both departments. Diaz is a terrible matchup for GSP, the first in years.

Thiago actually has a black belt in BJJ. And has one of the strongest TD defenses. Koscheck is again a strong wrestler. Diaz is going to get grinded into the mat. I can’t see him tapping or losing due to fatigue.
We’re talking about JJ here incase you haven’t noticed, and the ability to attack and defend from your back. Thiago posses no skill off his back compared to Nick, I don’t care what belt he has. Nick is a calculated killer off his back, GSP will struggle to get anything going. He couldn’t even submit a BRIT LOL.

Different weight division
In the WW division, no man has been as elite at passing the guard
I'm not a racist. I hate all people equally.
Your comments are a little weird today
Diaz’s “MMA JJ” has been pretty elite and well regarded over the past few years.
I'm not a racist. I hate all people equally.
Against high level wrestlers? Or against guys who do not have spectacular wrestling bases? Because for as gritty as Cyborg is, I wouldnt label him elite level.
Diaz hasn't been tested against a wrestler since April 15, 2006
So that’s a hard question to answer.
I'm not a racist. I hate all people equally.
Well not really. We have the answer. It is that Nick has found his biggest problems come against wrestlers. So until he proves that he can do better the answer will be his weakness is against wrestlers. Since he has shown nothing to prove otherwise all we know is what his career tells us.
Diaz got taken down by Penn
And in my opinion, getting taken down by Penn is more dangerous than getting taken down by let’s say, Kos or Ellenberger or Hendricks or whatever “elite level” wrassler there is at 170lbs

I agree except for Ellenberger. I think that guy is the last person at 170 you want to be underneath. He has unreal power.
You could sweep or submit Ellenberger, if you're Diaz.
Good luck doing that to Penn lol but yes, his power is unreal. Two totally different types of threats on the ground, both dangerous.

He is a black belt
And diaz tapped him 10 seconds after that fight hit the mat. I understand he may not have an elite wrestling base, but Diaz had incredible ease submitting a BJJ black belt literally as soon as he was taken down. Submitting a black belt is AT LEAST as impressive as submitting a wrestler in almost anyone’s opinion.

the big thing about gsp on the ground is he isn’t sitting still, he’s moving so he’s hard to get ahold of and submit, yes hughes did it, but since then he has put bj on his back, matt serra on his back and didn’t even come close to being submitted, diaz is a good fighter but i don’t think he has a shot in hell at beating GSP
Diaz poses a completely different threat to GSP than Penn or Serra
You are being silly.

First off, I think the crowd would cheer for Diaz…it would be something to see GSP react to not being favored and Diaz react to being cheered for against GSP

GSP treads very carefully against dangerous opponents and non may be more dangerous than Nick
Nick has not done well throughout his fight history against true wrestlers…..length of time since does not factor into the facts….sorry.
GSP has good stand up D. he keeps great distance and extends his reach better than anyone in the division save Nick, but Nick can’t fight himself so therefore he hasn’t experienced goo stand up defence in a long time. (examples: Cyborg, Daley, Noons and Penn the Fatter)

We all have our opinions on the fight. I dont remember the last time GSP laid on someone, or “humped” them. I remember GSP nearly ending Koschecks career. Shutting down all Shields offense.
remember dan hardy getting jizzed on for 5 rounds?
I also remember the repetitive flailing for five rounds against shields

I guess those pitty pats he tapped hardy with while he was grinding on him count as strikes. 174 strikes…haha get off his dick.

His jab session may have been one of the most impressive performances in terms of striking I have ever seen in MMA. He used the most simple of strikes to completely dictate the whole fight. And thoroughly beat him down.
It's like using one single chess piece and checkmating the other with it.

I’m an atheist, but I will make a special trip to church tomorrow and pray that Jesus heals your brain. I pray that the heavenly father drives the nut huggery from your soul. Lajun parents. if you are reading this get your child some help. gsp bored HIMSELF to death with that horrible striking display that’s why he apologized after. Even his cult like, ass backwards, die hard, dick riding, Canadian fans were booing, but You thought that was mma’s best display of striking???

He out points his opponents, sexually assaults them and embarasses himself.
That’s why he always apologizes after his fights. He feels dirty and ashamed. inside. You Canadians misuse the word “dominate” too much. You know what’s REALLY, REALLY dominating? forcing the other guy to quit. You know what’s REALLY REALLY shutting down your opponent? Putting them to sleep! That shuts them down completely for real!

i often wonder about these types of statements.
Nick Diaz is a warrior. No doubt about it. What else do we know about Nick? I love that we don’t know anything else about him really. He could be a hilarious person. He could be in a really deep meaningful relationship w/ someone. Nick will not let us know and I respect him for that not only because it makes him intriguing but he doesn’t think we deserve to know and he’s right.
Most pros in any spotlight cave to the media or the constant pressure of the media so they are forced to give something up to the media and the public just to alleviate that pressure. Nick basically says Fuck You to that, turns that pressure into focus for his fight and opponent.My point is just because that’s all he shows us doesn’t mean that’s all he is.
Conversely, just because GSP is a media darling who represents this image of the poster boy “athlete” of MMA and is very forthcoming and supplicant when it comes to that. Just because he plays a more cautious game and strategy while in the cage does not make.him less a “Warrior”.
The Art of War has enough quotes to show how both these men are “Warriors” in the cage. “Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win”…..“Strategy without tactics is the slowest route to victory. Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat” for GSP……
For Nick. “Speed is the essence of war. Take advantage of the enemy’s unpreparedness; travel by unexpected routes and strike him where he has taken no precautions.”……..and for those who shit on Diaz’s striking i leave you w/ this one. “When torrential water tosses boulders, it is because of its momentum. When the strike of a hawk breaks the body of its prey, it is because of timing.”

Glad you chimed in
People state that GSP is one dimensional. All of this boring dry humping shit crap. Other than his last fight (and maybe the one against Hardy), he was boring. Diaz likes to stand and bang. He doesn’t like fighting off his back. Sure he has sub’d people and beat people up but he was on the beating end of some of those fights before he KO’d his opponent. Yes, that makes it a much more exciting fight with a surprise end to it. Harsh statement regarding Diaz as I do realize he is multi-faceted but he loves to stand and GSP loves to GNP.

Bottom line is this, for the first time ever GSP does not have the advantage in striking or grappling
Serra is 5’6", Fitch was outclassed standing, Penn (when’s the last time he’s even attempted a sub from his back? UFC 63), Alves was outclassed on the mat, Hardy has no bars in terms of grappling, Koscheck (was gettin out struck by Matt Hughes, ‘nuff said), and shields striking is laughable. Diaz is the first guy who has the right combination to best GSP standing or on the ground. ALSO, let’s be real here, GSP curled up under Big John and tapped to strikes. Pathetic. He was willing to surrender his belt like that, that really shows the heart of a champion lol. Diaz is the most difficult guy to finish in the division, he amps it up as the fight goes on, he’s a true TO THE DEATH warrior. When the going gets tough, GSP gets going. He did in Serra #1, and in the shields fight he freaked the fuck out and started fighting like complete garbage. Diaz is the guy to beat GSP, but conversely GSP probably has the best chance of beating Diaz out of the whole division. But right now, I see Diaz pulling it off. He’s a bad matchup all around for Georges.
I want Diaz to win as much as anyone
But I wouldn’t put money on him against GSP

Regarding GSP vs Diaz: Who is the stronger and more physically fit man that night
GSP is the clear favourite for me. His ability to keep the fight where he’s wants it to be will get him the victory more times than anything. GSP will be extra slippery as usual and I feel that will come into play with Diaz throwing up sub attempts from guard. Ground and pound could also cause Diaz to tire, also GSP dominates from the fence and transitions/scrambles well from there.
I will not put any money down on this fight (whenever it happens) simply because I want both fighters to win. Diaz is crazy hood, and GSP is Canadian, both are near the tops of my favourite fighters. I really just want this fight to happen tomorrow and may the better man win.
Great fights > Great fighters
Message boards are for the fans, professional fighters should seek opinions elsewhere!
GSP is the favorite and rightfully so but I bet the odds will be close
especially with long layoff due to injury , I want Diaz to beat Conduit so bad so this fight becomes a reality

After seeing the primetime thing last night, it would be hard for me to ever root against Diaz.
He’s easily the most interesting character in mma. Carlos was the same contrived family man thing they do every episode, and too much of it was shown. That 5 minutes of insight into Nick was worth it though. I think he can and will be the welterweight champ and one of mma’s biggest stars. Anger isn’t a good thing for GSP to go into a fight with.

UFC 143
My response to Dana White’s prediction of Diaz vs St Pierre’s bout this summer……? I get it, it is what the fans want and GSP wants……. but just where does Carlos
Condit fit in here! There is a saying “never under estimate ur enemy”…..we will see who comes out on top, a week from today….. may the best man win, and that will be Carlos!!!
