GSP isn't going back to MW obviously since he vacated the title. His coaches don't want him back at 170 because they feel it's not worth the risk vs reward, and Dana doesn't want to let him fight Conor. The only real option I see is Nate.

Nate is sitting out waiting for a big fight and GSP is looking for big fights as well. Nate might not be a goat but he has a big following and it would be strong headliner. I think Firas was interested in Nate as an opponent in the past.

Nick already happened and another win over Nick doesn't add anything to his legacy.
 
I don't think UFC can negotiate with Nate Diaz...
 
nate diaz will never fight again except for conor. if you run in their inner circle u would know this.
 
Nate Diaz? I’m struggling to think what a fight with him does for GSP
 
Nate is gonna want 20 million or he won't fight.....
 
No.
Terrible fight.
There’s no path to victory for Nate there. I don’t see any way that fight doesn’t look just like the Nick fight.

That's exactly why I think it's going to happen. Firas will bank on GSP being able to out-grapple Nate and control him. I think Nate is big enough of a star to get GSP interested.

Also they can justify paying Nate big money and a GSP/Nate headliner will sell well
 
Dude, in an era of stupid fights, I dont even see the UFC making such a stupid fight, lol.

its an easy high paying fight for gsp, i would hope he is interested.. he already proved everything he needed to prove. i have noooo problem with gsp only looking for money fights now. Nate is the one who wouldnt take the fight because he seems to think he is worth wayyyyy more than he is. id love to watch it tho.
 
It's not a bad fight. If it got made I see a lot of bitching and complaining like people did with Bisping/GSP but ultimately it will sell a shit load of PPV's and people will watch it. You put the names GSP and Diaz in a headliner and it's going to sell.
 
Exactly how many crack rocks did you smoke today?<23>
 
That would make for one hell of an uninteresting fight.

Why not GSP vs. Woodley? I know I'd love to see Woodley get dethroned.

I can understand your reasons for supporting GSP as a fan and it´s okay that he wants to make his money.

But that last part of your post "I´d love to watch it" ...... Why would you love to watch a fight that wouldn´t be even remotely competitive? Out of all the possible fights GSP could make, fighting Diaz is probably the worst option. We alredy know what´s gonna happen from the 1st to the last minute. What´s the point?
 
At least Woodley would've KTFO Nate, GSP will just take him down and score a 30-27

just because the diaz brothers entertain me.. i think it would be fun to watch all the press conferences and weigh ins leading up to the fight.
