FWW: Nick, first off congratulations on your recent first round submission win over Hayato Sakurai at DREAM 14.

Nick Diaz: Thank you.
FWW: Let’s get right into it. You have won your last 7 fights, all of them impressive performances coming by way of TKO or submissions. You have fought at welter weight and you have gone up to fight at a catch weight. You have, for the most part, cleaned out everyone in your weight class in the organizations where you have fought since leaving the UFC. We wanted to talk today about a potential match with the current UFC Welterweight Champion Georges St-Pierre (GSP), a fight many of the hard core fight fans want to see.

definitely a fight i would want to see and i think diaz with his combination of submission skills

and his striking combos to the face and body of his opponents is second to none. did you see scott smiths face before he hit the canvas with his fight with diaz. nick hit him with soo many combos his face was pure agony from all the punishment. i would say diaz would be at least a +215 moneyline considering koscheck is a +260. i would take diaz to win.

I'm all about covering the spread and moneylines. Glory favors the bold. Chance favors the prepared mind. Luck, well i have that too. University of Utah goes to the Pac-12 conference in 2011. I expect them to compete immediately for the conference CG. I still will always follow the Mountain West Conference. Brock Lesnar will defeat Cain Velasquez and face the winner of Junior Dos Santos vs Roy Nelson where he will defeat JDS and stake his claim as pound for pound champion. Womens MMA, the next big thing in sports. 5 weeks till the first game of college football. UTAH vs Pitt. September 2nd 2010.
