I'm by no means a Diaz fan, but honestly aside from the KO loss to Thomson, the Diaz Bros have never been finished in the UFC. If fights ran until a finish took place, I have a hard time seeing the Diaz Bros losing. They have cardio, heart, and durability for days. I can't imagine many if any fighters being able to outlast them in a fight
 
If I were 6'2 I would be starting shortstop for the Braves.
 
Bjj would reign supreme in the octagon.

RDA would have kicked Nate's clean off had their fight not had a time limit. So probably not Nate.
 
Yes.
In a true Vale Tudo situation, where a fight goes forever, and nobody cares that a wrestler got a TD or won a round, the best skill set would be excellent striking and excellent submission wrestling. I would prefer rule and judging changes that would reflect this.

"he ragdolled him", "he took him down at will", "he was winning every second of that fight", "he outlanded him on fightmetric", "he was winning most of the fight so it doesn't matter that he almost got finished", blah, blah, blah.
None of this should matter.
Who the hell cares that you take a Diaz bro down and 'win' the round? Do something AFTER you take him down, OR DON'T BOTHER TAKING HIM DOWN IN THE FIRST PLACE (oh yea, the rules will say that you "dominated").
 
And if knees and soccer kicks were allowed with no time limit, most of the higher tier wrestlers would give him brain damage.
