Mr. Diaz's Opus, The Full Picture

No matter the subject it's hard not to like a post with this much effort.
 
Good read TS, and man I haven't seen a man get slapped that many times like that since Wyatt Earp slapped the shit outta that dude in Tombstone. "You gonna do something, or just stand there and bleed?"
 
Excellent read! Thanks for taking the time TS.
 
better than sherdogs official play-by-play
 
Thanks. I didn't see the fight so this was great to read.

Not a fair comparison they write that in real time. I got to have all the extra details that didn't come till after the bout and time to put my thoughts together.

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
 
how about some of the split decision fights? those read ups would be interesting
 
Watching it again, Nate actually cups Conor's chin to lift his head - not to choke him, but to set him up for the punch. Impressive.

Yup, took me a few watches to notice that too. Good shit.

I might do that but I also have a history in boxing so I'd like to write a piece on the technical aspects of fighters. Precision pieces, like a jack slack article with the training manual included and references to legit source material.

that and Flavor articles of the way an exciting fight went. Maybe prefight breakdowns too.

Only thing that could have made this better would be more gifs of the exchanges, like a gif for every noteworthy exchange. Nice post, OP.

Unfortunately for Conor, Nate was Doc Holiday and Conor was Johny Ringo.

That punch into choke is really something. I've seen the guy on the back throw punches to get his opponent to lift his chin, but I've never seen someone actually knocked right into the choking arm.
I saw it in the Chiesa v Miller fight.
 
Spot on...really nicely written...good job dudeu must have watched the fight more than 2 times...nice observation....it is exactly what happened
 
Good stuff. Reminds me of when I used to read play by plays.
 
LOL get a life. Who the fuck spends so many time writing all that BS?? I bet no one even read that.

By the way, your ¨Mr Diaz¨ is still a bum from the hood.
