Nice find but 6 years ago means soooo little to me.

There have been several threads about this video in the last week or two. It really holds no relevance on this fight. Both guys have got their work cut out for them.

Great match.
This was pretty damned technical. I really dig the sweep
That Nate executed, while defending the headlock.

That rolling kneebar was pretty, and josh did seem
To be the stronger of the two.
Nate though was more relentless, and soon josh
Was using his strength to defend, rather then attack.

If there is one thing that this tape shows, is that
Nate may be able to wear josh down. Winning a decision,
Much like this video.
Were he looks over matched, but overtime starts to pull
Ahead.

Anyways hell of a match.

Josh keeps a relentless pace at all times in all of his fights. I doubt cardio will be a factor for either fighter in this one.

I watch MMA and this is not relevant to this fight.

Dealing with all the injuries he's had over the years, it has taken a toll on his cardio. And even if it doesn't, most guys have a hard time matching the Diaz boys in the cardio department. This is gonna be a freaking war I hope though.
