An Open FU to UFC President DanaEffing” White!

wtf

Poolt: Rich Bergeron

Those who know me personally would all say I am a mellow individual, until you seriously cross me, nagu, for instance, if you become the subject of an investigative report I’m working on, või sue me for $25 miljon. Sometimes I may take things like that as a sign you might not want me to really find out who you are and what you do behind closed doors to screw hard working people over.

This week, a certain individual who won’t even let me follow him in Twitter (https://twitter.com/danawhite) pissed me off to the point where I could only think of one thing to do. Because I’m officially blacklisted in every possible way by the UFC brass, and have even had restraining orders placed against my directly contacting the Fertittas and ANY UFC fighter, my best option is to publish a drastic diatribe here I am just going to call myOPEN FUto DanaEffing” White.

I’m sure Mr. White will not take my calls or subject himself to a one on one interview with me. Nii, I will have to settle for a written FUand a multi-tiered and multi-purpose FU.

FU, DanaEffing” White… for many, many reasonstoo many for one small blog post to do justice, but let’s just say Most of all FU….

For what you THINK you know about Holly Holm

Hei, Dana, you wanna talk about youreffingreality showLooking For a Fight????” I was actually looking for a fight when I watched that old realityshit show when you were supposed to box Tito Ortiz, but HE magically backed out at the last minute.

Nüüd, you, DANAEFFINGWHITE, are telling Holly Holm about a decision YOU think she didn’t think through enough??? And now you act like someone pissed in your Wheaties because you have two upset wins at UFC 196 to work around and figure out how to make sense of somehow.

Booeffinghoo, buddy.

Welcome to how things don’t go as planned sometimes in the fight business, you ungrateful prick.

Do you wanna be aneffing” Edendaja, Danaeffing” White???

Holly Holm Was the Bantamweight Champion of the UFC when she allowed HER Manager (not Danaeffing” White) to negotiate the Tate fight on her behalf, and she knew (and her long-time manager knew, liiga) what she was doing and what she wanted. And guesseffingwhat, Dana? She wanted to fight.

Vabandust, DanaEffing” White, but Holly didn’t want to sit on aneffingsideline waiting for Ronda Rousey to finish hereffingROADHOUSE REMAKE!

Holly wanted to go to workbut unfortunately she has to work for a boss who has no idea what it’s like to step into HER office and handle HER daily workload with such tenacity, klass, dignity and grace.

And I think maybe she looks back a bit differently than you do, Dana, with noeffingregrets whatsoever for putting her absolute all into that fight and just plain getting caught in her one area of weakness in a battle where she likely would have won a three-round fight. Maybe if YOU were a fighter, Dana, you might get that whole concept. Maybe losing in this case only makes her better, tugevam, and more durable as a career mixed martial artist. Who gives a damn if it makes her less marketable in your eyes? What do you really know, niikuinii?

UNLIKE YOU, DanaEffing” White, Holly actually respects Miesha Tate and thought it would be a challenge to fight her. Jah, she lost, but damn, she was absolutely correct about it being a challenge. I think the fight will go down as one of the greatest battles in female MMA history.

Nüüd, why don’t you open youreffingeyes, Dana, watch the fight again, and quit bitching about what should have happened in that cage you never fought in yourself.

Be grateful you have a champion you just paid $92,000 in fight pay (before bonuses) to take your organization’s belt from the girl you WANTED TO WIN (and paid $500,000 just to be there). It may not be what you expected, but the anxiety you feel about it is what you DESERVE to feel for being such a douchebag to the fighters who built the UFC.

My biggest questions on this subject for Dana are: Why are you such a biased, crooked asshole who can’t bother to give Miesha the time of day FOR ALL HER HARD WORK? Why can’t you give credit where it is dueon both sides of that fight? Why can’t you shut theeffup about what you think Holly or her management should have or could have waited for?

It’s not your place to look back with 20/20 hindsight and act like Holly and her manager should have gone all Nostradamus on this fight when you obviously didn’t see this shit coming, kumbki, you dome-headed dimwit.

Fighters “effing” võitlus, Dana. That’s what theyeffingdo, which you should know, since I am pretty sure you used to be aneffingmanager of MMA fighters yourself. Jah, that was many moons ago, but how could you forget?

Fighters don’t sit on their asses on corporate jets and stand at podiums in front of the press all day to earn theeffingpaltry paychecks your organization pays out to most of them. Most fighters simply cannot afford to wait around for shit to happen or for someoneworthyenough in your eyes to step up and fight them.

Some fighters need to feed their kids. All of them need to pay their bills and for everything else involved with training camps, daily living expenses, travel and whatever costs medical insurance doesn’t cover when they have to address nagging injuries. Your shitty Reebok deal made it virtually impossible to get any other outside sponsors to help pay for anything like that stuff for many fighters, Dana.

Welcome to selling out and forgetting where you came from, Dana. You used to care more about fighters. Now you act like fighting in a cage is just like doing any other 9-5 töö. It’s not. See on “effinghard work.

Nii, jah, Holly chose to fight instead of waiting for Rousey to be ready for the rematch. And you think she needs your opinion now that everything didn’t work out as planned for you both?

FU, Dana.

She hurts a lot worse than you, and I can guaran-effing-tee that.

Oi…ja…muide…fighters are way more responsible for the growth and success of the UFC/Zuffa organization than you ever have been. And that’s real talk, you rich bitch with a stick up your ass because you were never good enough in your life to ever have your own official fight.

Nii, get over the God complex and learn to respect ALL of your fighters, not just the ones you want to see win because you might think you can work with them better or you think they will move the organization in a better direction. Respect the effort, the sacrifice and the pain ALL your fighters go through each and every day to get where they get. That belt you put on Miesha’s waist was EARNED, and don’t you ever think it iseffingcool to call the fact that Holly Holm had the guts to face Miesha Tatea mistake.

It rings hollow, especially when I would consider that handing you a microphone to talk about MMA at all was THE greatest mistake the sport ever made, periood! Anyone who would try to knock a former champion down a peg that way in his own organization does not deserve to be recognized as that organization’s president.

You have no clue what it’s really like to fight, and your criticism of Holly Holm tells me you can never possibly understand the mindset that led her to take the Tate fight and not wait an idle year for RondaeffingRousey to be ready to appear at one of your precious shows.

Nii, FU Dana White for treating your former champ like she’s an idiot who doesn’t know how to control her own career without you butting your stupid, bald head into it. Holly’s fine without your advice, and she trusts her manager, which might be something you’re not familiar with, but for other people it is actually a reality of doing business with legitimate people.

 

FU, Dana for being a piss-poor ambassador for the sport, disrespecting fighters who bleed (and sometimes suffer lifelong injuries) for you and the sport, and totally underestimating and failing to grasp what it really takes to actually be a professional fighter who actually competes against other fighters

Do you remember the days when you had to settle for being a lowly boxercise instructor because your boxing trainer Boston slapped you too hard in the ear once? You never had a single competitive fight in your life, Danaeffing” White, and that’s a DOCUMENTED FACT!

Do you ever even look back at those days before the silver-spoon-fed Fertittas helped you claw your greedy, selfish, egotistical ass into the position of OFFICIAL UFC MOUTHPIECE?

Do you remember those hairy days when you blew through $40 million of Fertitta funds to perpetrate theZuffa Mythwhile claiming credit for the UFC brass singlehandedly legitimizing the sport and getting it regulated all by youreffingselves? As if not a single FIGHTER nor any other industry professional who pioneered MMA before you dipped your greedy little paws into it had anything to do with it?

Your Mom remembers thosecoulda been a contender” päeva, Dana..when you thought you might be able to have an actual fight with another human being. Your own mother remembers even though you and one of your sleazy friends tried to silence her, BASH HER ONLINE, and even blacklist her BOOK, liiga.

Do you remember the days when even Floyd Mayweather, Jr. thought you were cool, back when your daily driver was aneffingHonda, Dana? Floyd Remembers. He knew you long before you could afford to blow a normal person’s yearly pay on a single hand of poker.

You’re in a different place now, Danaeffing” White, and it’s a delusional place. Like on the distant planet you live on, people actually believe YOU really, ausalt, trulyeffingknow what it’s ACTUALLY like to be aneffingfighter? Do you actually believe YOU somehow could ever REALLY know that feeling?

REALLY?

Tead what A FIGHTER is, don’t you, Dana? A fighter is a man or woman who has the courage to willingly step into unarmed combat against another actual man or woman instead of just criticizing up and down the guys and girls who do have the guts to actually stand across from another human being while knowing and internalizing that the accepted goal is to physically destroy each other.

A fighter, in more simple terms, on “one who fights.And let’s be clear about oneeffingthing, Danaeffing” White, I know fighters, ja YOU are no fighter.

You are nothing like a fighter, Danaeffing” White, and you nevereffing” saab. You are too weak, both physically and mentally. Until we see you go through a six-week training camp and then get into the cage against someone and kick his ass, we shouldn’t have to listen to one damncoulda,” “shoulda,” või “wouldaout of your cornfed mouth about what you think of any particular fighter’s performance or decision making process. Those people have the guts to do what you will NEVER do yourself, and you ought to respect that.

FU Dana WhiteFor not recognizing Real Fighters Like Miesha Tate and Nate Diaz who keep at it no matter what and NEVER seem to earn your ULTIMATE RESPECT….

Nate Diaz stepped up to fight Conor McGregor for a reason. He had nothing to lose, and he wasn’t intimidated one bit. He famoulsy went on television with Fox Sports 1 on a split screen with Conor before that welterweight fight and quipped that his nemesis had already been choked out before, “by two lames.Diaz also had the perfect instinct to add humourously that McGregor’s choke losses happened, “like a week ago.

Diaz beat Conor in the shit-talk game long before he ever slapped him down and slipped that choke around his neck in the cage. The media created by that freakshow fight might have stopped the unchecked rise of your big, bold, six-headed dragon champion, but it created a new monster at the same time. And he’s a Reebok-hating, scowling, swearing, Stockton-slapping Mother-F$#king BEAST who doesn’t care what anyone else thinks about what he does or says.

You might think Diaz and his attitude arebad for business,” but I think his victory was the best thing that could ever happen to all you smug punks running the UFC. It just proves once and for all that you do not control the MMA universe.

Nate Diaz went without respect and credit for being an MMA pioneer and a good UFC soldier for far too long. The bitterness brewed and boiled within him, and I loved every second of him letting it pour out in post-fight interviews after he choked the shit out of Conor until the Irish bloke tapped theeffout and left Dana White drooling in a stupor at the thought of having to congratulate a man who’s become more of a mortal enemy than a member of the bigteam.

More power to Nate and all the crazy, abrasive, in-your-face Diaz brother types out there in the UFC who will fight DanaeffingWhite’s flamboyant fire with even more bravado and brash talk of their own. They can always say, “I learned it by watching you, Baldfather!”

As for Miesha Tate, she deserves true respect and admiration for being champ now after picking herself off the mat twice in the face of grueling losses to Rousey. Kudos to Tate for continuing her career and relentlessly focusing on getting by that Rousey armbar once and for all.

Though Miesha never did solve that Rousey submission dilemma, trying at all costs to get another crack at the belt paid dividends at UFC 196. Her never quit attitude led her to an opportunity of a lifetime, and she capitalized on it. Nüüd, Dana, you actually have to pay this young lady what most of her fans would say she was worth a long time ago.

And now you simply have to treat Tate with a bit of reverence and appreciation for once in your ungrateful life, Danaeffing” White. I know it must pain you so much to give this young lady the credit she’s worked so incredibly hard for, because maybe she touched a nerve when she called you out in the past for being the true clueless and disrespectful prick you really are. She was right, and you were wrong about how great she really is at fighting. Then again, weren’t you also WRONG about women fighting in the cage, periood?

Nii, you DON’T wanna be a fighter, Mr. White? Then step aside and let the people who DO wanna be fighters go to battle for you so you can ride around the world on your jet and act like you know what theeffyou’re talking about when you stand in front of a microphone to describe the sport’s true athletes and what they do to make a living in mixed martial arts.

The line from Dana that most stands out to me as comblete BS in this whole debacle is this one:

“He’s an old boxing guy who thinks he’s smart and he isn’t,” White said of Fresquez [Holm’s Manager]. “I feel bad for Holly because I don’t know if she really knows what she lost.”

I have only two moreeffingquestions for you Danaeffing” White…

1.) What makes you think you are really in anyeffingposition to EVER know or understand what Holly Holm lost the other night? Aside from a few bad poker hands and tons of respect, the only thing you ever lost is your mind.

2.) Doesn’t your backhanded quote about Holm’s manager describe your own shitty character a whole lot better than that of Mr. Fresquez?

JA…just in case after reading all this anyone STILL needs yet another reason to have beef with the Baldfather:

Ronda Rousey- Cleaner


Photo Credit: Esther Lin / MMA Fighting

Arvestades, et see on maksu hooaja, see on hea aeg meenutada, et on olemas kolm garantiid elu: surm, maksud ja Ronda Rousey taas näitab, miks ta on parim emane võitleja planeedil koos esimese ringi lammutamine tema vastane.

Rousey jõudlust at UFC 184 Eelmisel kuul oli tema parimatest siiani. Ta esitas nõela Kass, üldiselt peetakse Rousey suurim väljakutse, sisse 14 sekundit. Kuigi Rousey soodustas täiesti jube strateegia Zingano, tema virtuoos täitmise viis teiseni arutelu, kellel on, mida ta võtab, et kukutada Rousey. See tõi kaasa ka naeruväärne vestlus, kas Rousey võib võistelda ja võita mees võitlejad UFC on Kääbus sarjalainen jagunemine. Vähem aega kulutada, et absurdne arusaam, et saavutatakse midagi, kuid püüab diskrediteerida suur võitleja Rousey on, parem.

Muidugi, eesnimi, et alati kerkib on Cris "Cyborg" Justino, Invicta FC Höyhensarjalainen meister. Ta peaks langema 135 naela eest võitlema Invicta sel suvel enne liikuma võitlus Rousey. Aga, Cyborg üritanud langust Kääbus sarjalainen eelmisel aastal ja loobus nende plaanide. Nii et ma ei hoia mu hinge on kauaoodatud vimm sobitada Rousey ja Cyborg juhtub igal ajal kiiresti.

Rousey hiljuti avaldanud soovi võidelda Bethe Correia, kes hoobi kaks Rousey on "Neli horsewomen" meeskonnakaaslasi ning on olnud kutsudes Rousey välja ajast. Jessica Eye on ka panustatud oma nõude pealkiri shot, kuid kumbki neist naised kujutavad endast tõelist ohtu Rousey. Ajal UFC 184 on postfight katvus, Daniel Cormier välja mõtte tema kolleeg Miesha Tate saada kolmanda pragu Rousey.

Peale selle, ma arvan trilogies tuleks jätta ainult siis, kui iga võitleja on võidu üle teiste, Ma ei näe põhjust, miks kolmandat korda oleks võlu Tate. Kuigi ta on ainus naine minna kaugemale, kui esimese ringi koos Rousey, Tate on jäänud samaks, nagu võitleja samas Rousey on saanud parema. Kui kaks olid võidelda kolmandat korda, Ma ei näe mingit põhjust arvata, oleks tulemus teistsugune.

Nii et kui see jätta Rousey? Minu arvates, ta on puhastada UFC naiste Kääbus sarjalainen jagunemine. Ei ole kedagi, kes tekitab kindel oht, et tema. Kui Zingano kohandatud tema strateegia ja sai teise tulistas Rousey, ta võib olla võimalus võita. Peale selle, kui Rousey otsustasin minna välja peal ning toetub oma kasvava filmikarjääri, Ma ei usu, et keegi oleks hoidke seda tema vastu.

Rousey on praegu perspektiivis sarnane Anderson Silva run atop UFC on võiduajamine jagunemine. Ta domineerib kõik oma teel, ning välja arvatud tema esimene võitlus Chael Sonnen, pani ta vaevata. Rousey raskeim võitlus kuupäev oli vastu Liz Carmouche, kui ta oli Rousey in taga alasti choke esimeses voorus oma võitlust 2013 enne Rousey oli võimalik põgeneda ning tagada teise käelukku võidu.

Silva valitsemisaeg atop race rajoon lõppes, kui varem tundmatu Chris Weidman tuli mööda ja neil ei olnud hirmu ja võttis võitluses Silva. Ehk see peab juhtuma Rousey. Ta peab leidma vastane, kes saavad otse näo, anna oma armu ja võtta võitlust oma. Needle, mis üritasid at UFC 184, kuid tema overzealousness sattus maksavad oma kallilt.

Kuni Rousey leiab enda Chris Weidman, saame lisada veel ülivõrdes, et paljud, kes juba lisatud naiste Kääbus sarjalainen meister: puhasti. Rousey is fresh out of worthy challengers to her crown, ülesande ta saavutanud puhastamiseks läbi tema jagunemine.

Dana White and the Women

Laupäev, Veebruar. 28, is going to be a landmark day for the Ultimate Fighting Championship. All the fighters on the pay-per-view card that day will pass their pre-fight drug…….never mind. That’s too easy.

That day will be the first time a UFC card features women’s bouts in both its co-main event and main event. After middleweight champion Chris Weidman was forced to withdraw from his fight against Vitor Belfort due to injury, the new main event at UFC 184 is Ronda Rousey defending her women’s bantamweight belt against Cat Zingano. In koostöö põhiturniiri, much-heralded prospect Holly Holm will make her UFC debut against Raquel Pennington in another women’s bantamweight fight.

As I’ve mentioned before, UFC has come a long way from when Dana White told TMZ that women would “never” fight in his organization. Rousey will main event her third consecutive February PPV and Holm is widely believed to be the next in line for a shot at the title, should she defeat Pennington. Holm is still very raw in mixed martial arts, but trains with the world renowned coaches Greg Jackson and Mike Winkeljohn.

Rousey is carrying the flag for women’s MMA and for women in the UFC. Other female fighters have followed her into the Octagon, including Miesha Tate, Liz Carmouche and Alexis Davis. What do those three have in common? They all also fell to Rousey – Tate twice in Strikeforce and the UFC, and Carmouche and Davis both in the first round at UFC PPVs in 2013 ja 2014, vastavalt.

Rousey and Tate’s feud is well-chronicled. It led to the two being coaches on The Ultimate Fighter, which included female fighters for the very first time who greatly outshined their male counterparts on the show that season.

Given that season’s success, the most recent season of The Ultimate Fighter featured ALL female fighters and the debut of the UFC’s newest division, women’s strawweight. Carla Esparza, the former Invicta FC strawweight champion, won the inaugural UFC version of that belt after defeating Rose Namajunas.

So in the span of four years, UFC goes from having no female fighters and White emphatically stating that it never will, to being home to TWO female weight classes and undoubtedly the promotion’s biggest star right now in Rousey. Don’t believe me? Did you see the third Expendables movie? Or do you plan on seeing the film version of Entourage this summer? You might notice a familiar face.

So where does women’s MMA go from here? I am personally a big fan of female fights, as they tend to be among the more entertaining and action-packed fights on a UFC card. As I previously stated, female fighters are more than capable of outshining their male contemporaries. Why is that? Maybe female fighters feel they have more to prove inside the Octagon and always go for broke. Maybe they go into the Octagon with more of a “go for broke” mentality and actively seek a finish as opposed to “playing it safe.”

The fight between Rousey and Zingano on Feb. 28 will also go a long way toward determining the future of women’s MMA. Should Rousey defeat Zingano – which all signs indicate she will – she will have essentially cleaned out her division, with only unknown challengers like Holm and Bethe Correia left. If Zingano pulls the upset, then the division has a fresh batch of exciting matchups waiting.

But who knows what would have happened if Dana White kept his promise to TMZ?

UFC 183: Who will show up?


Photo Credit: UFC

The Ultimate Fighting Championship has hit it out of the park so far in 2015, with its first two major cards of the year living up to the hype of their main events. Light heavyweight champion Jon Jones dominated Daniel Cormier to prove he is the pound-for-pound best fighter in the world at UFC 182, and at the UFC’s live card in Boston, Mass., jaanuaris, Conor McGregor secured a featherweight title shot against José Aldo and wasted no time getting in his next opponent’s face.

Which brings us to UFC 183 täna õhtul, and a main event that is considered a dream matchup by many. Anderson Silva returns to the Octagon after suffering a gruesome leg injury in his last fight against UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman in 2013. Nick Diaz also makes his return to the UFC after losing his last fight against former welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre in 2013.

Tonight’s card isn’t without its other storylines though. A pair of significant undercard fights are taking place under some controversy, as flyweight John Lineker came in overweight for his fight against Ian McCall, which is expected to determine the next no. 1 contender to the flyweight title. In koostöö põhiturniiri, Kelvin Gastelum came in 9 pounds overweight for his fight against Tyron Woodley, which means 30 percent of Gastelum’s fight purse actually goes to Woodley. Talk about insult to injury.

Muidugi, there is always the wild card with Diaz too. He plays by his own rules, having no-showed the open workouts earlier this week. Will he actually show up to the cage for tonight’s main event? It remains to be seen, though most everyone thinks he will.

Nii, having said all that, who do I think wins tonight?

Miesha “Cupcake” Tate (15-5) vs. Sara McMann (8-1) (Women’s bantamweight – 135 lbs.)

This is actually the main event of the preliminary card on Fox Sports 1. Tate requested to compete on this portion of the card instead of the pay-per-view card, taking a page from Urijah Faber’s playbook. Tate is also eager for a third fight with Ronda Rousey for the women’s bantamweight title. Both of these women suffered Rousey’s wrath, particularly McMann, who was demolished by Rousey in about a minute last year.

McMann is a pure wrestler with very little else to her repertoire, whereas Tate built on her established wrestling skills to become an effective striker. I think she will stuff McMann’s attempts to take this fight to the mat and use her vastly superior striking skills to keep McMann befuddled en route to a dominant victory.

Võitja: Tate by unanimous decision

Jordan “Young Gun” Mein (29-9) vs. Thiago “Pitbull” Alves (25-9) (Welterweight – 170 lbs.)

Alves has alternated wins and losses in his last six fights, while Mein rides a two-fight win streak. Alves is always dangerous with his Muay Thai and striking, while Mein landed a first-round TKO victory in his last fight. This should be an exciting stand-up battle with neither guy willing to give an inch. I think Alves is the more dangerous fighter here, and will land one good shot to knock Mein silly.

Võitja: Alves by second round TKO

Thales Leites (24-4) vs. Tim “The Barbarian” Boetsch (18-7) (Keskmine kaal - 185 lbs.)

Leites comes into this fight on a roll, having won his last seven fights, with the last two coming by way of TKO. Boetsch has alternated wins and losses in his last four fights, including a TKO victory in his last fight against Brad Tavares.

Boetsch is a slow, plodding bruiser best known for derailing the Hector Lombard hype train when he first made his UFC debut. Leites is a crafty, dangerous fighter who can finish you with his hands or by submission. I think Leites will avoid Boetsch’s power and wait for Boetsch to make a mistake, where Leits will capitalize.

Võitja: Leites by third round submission

Joe Lauzon (24-10) vs. Al “Raging” Iaquinta (10-3-1) (Lightweight – 155 lbs.)

You know what you’re getting with a Joe Lauzon fight. You’re going to see an exciting, action packed bout that will most likely end with him locking in a slick submission or, in the case of his fight against Jim Miller, suffering a gnarly cut that will guarantee a blood battle.

Iaquinta has been on a roll since his time on The Ultimate Fighter Live, having only lost once in his last six fights. A win against Lauzon would be a real feather in his cap and might propel him into title contendership discussion. But Lauzon is one of the best submission specialists in the UFC, and I think the crafty veteran has another submission up his sleeve.

Võitja: Lauzon by second round submission

Tyron “The Chosen One” Woodley (14-3) vs. Kelvin Gastelum (11-0) (Welterweight – 170 lbs.)

As mentioned above, Gastelum weighed in 9 pounds over for this fight and will forfeit 30 percent of his purse directly to Woodley. It was reported that Gastelum spent time in the hospital leading up to this fight, which contributed to him coming in overweight.

Woodley will be angry in this fight, and rightly so. It’s not fair that his opponent will have a weight advantage due to his own failure to do what he was supposed to do. Give Woodley credit for wanting to keep fighting when it would have been perfectly understandable to postpone it.

Woodley will channel his rage into a blitzkrieg of offense at Gastelum, and the lethargic and probably still-injured Gastelum will have no response.

Võitja: Woodley by second round TKO

Anderson "Ämblik" Silva (33-6) vs. Nick Diaz (27-9-1) (Keskmine kaal - 185 lbs.)

This is one of the several main events that have fight fans buzzing in 2015. Many didn’t think Silva would ever walk again after his leg injury against Weidman, let alone come back to the UFC to fight. The matchup style of Diaz wanting to push the pace, get in his opponent’s face and sucker him into trading blows against Silva’s unrivaled elusiveness will be interesting to watch.

Diaz said he wouldn’t trash talk Silva during this fight out of respect. But if Silva keeps bobbing and weaving and dodging Diaz’s punches, we’ll see how long Diaz commits to that. I think we’ll see vintage Silva in this fight, making Diaz look silly in some spots while landing well-timed strikes that will confuse and frustrate Diaz, which will allow Silva to land even more.

Diaz is too tough to finish, but this fight will show that Silva still has it and is the vastly superior fighter.

Võitja: Silva by unanimous decision
