I have almost zero words for this.

So, since I have nothing nice to say. I’ll take my mom’s advice, and say nothing at all.
 
Luque via left hook to the chin

Weird match up. I guess Diaz moves the needle and needs the money.
 
Shouldnt be happening nick is old washed and luque can crack dont want to see diaz get hurt here
 
It all depends on the shape nick is in if he has cardio or not
 
Mah Ears!!!! Why no warning? Damn you Dana and your unnecessary yelling.
 
any fighter would be dumb not to fight nick diaz. that's a huge paycheck.
 
In the spirit of the Diaz brothers...
Fuck it...
I think Diaz will win it !
 
Dat oil money can get anything done I reckon.
Got old man Nick of teh couch.
I expect he will train his ass off. He's only 40... so he's not completely beyond his athletic prime... though time served has likely aged him significantly.

I usually don't like watching old fighters come back, but it could be fun if we see anything resembling a young & hungry Nick.
 
I think it's pretty obvious that Nicks anxiety was out of control against Lawler. After building up to this for multiple years, he had a huge adrenaline dump, did a bunch of spinning shit, and gave up when he gassed out instead of biting down, fighting back, and waiting out the storm.

If he doesn't get that shit under control, Luque is going to make him pay. On the other hand, if he can delude himself into thinking he still has it, he could actually hurt Luque who is gunshy and his brain is a bowl of pudding at this point.

It's sad. Nick should be living his dream in a state park with his mobile RV turned grow op like he used to talk about back in the day.
 
Absurd. Diaz should stay retired, but I guess he needs the money.
 
I’m all in on Diaz again. Can’t help but remember though he looked great a couple of months before the Lawler fight then showed up in a shape we have never seen him before.
Even being that out of shape his boxing was crisp, until he ran out of gas.
I wonder how having quit will play in his mind if the going gets tough though.
 
Having guys like Ferguson and Nick still fighting really shows UFC are struggling to create new stars.
