The Diaz Delusion

Diaz is the greatest, the time he lost to GSP and proceeded to show up at the press conference, pretty much shits on everyone there including telling Hendricks he lost to Condit and then spending the rest of the time explaining all the reasons he lost his fight was one of the most hilarious things ive ever seen.

Its such a shame he isnt able to get a license, there is so many good fights for him at welterweight, Lawler, Condit, McDonald, Brown and Mia would all be fantastic.

Then again what other WW could have gone toe to toe with Silva for five rounds?

I'm sure haters could come up with five or six that'll never fight Silva to prove them right. GSP wanted nothing to do with the guy.

Why does this guy always insist that he's THE best fighter in the world?

I always enjoy a good Nick Diaz interview for his awkward speech pattern, but below it, it seems that Diaz seems to be pretty insistent that he's the BEST in the world, despite having pretty undisputed losses to St-Pierre and Silva (before the NC) in his last two fights—even insisting he won those fights immediately afterwards.

He could make a case for being ONE of the best, but there does appear to be a certain delusion that Diaz has in regards to his superiority. He's never been ranked as a pound-for-pound fighter from as far back as I can remember, he had a fantastic streak in PRIDE/Elite XC/Strikeforce after leaving the UFC in '06, but has always had mixed success in the UFC—though he has consistently fought the best.

Moreover, what's more alarming is that MMA fans seem to overlook this delusion whenever he makes this statement. Perhaps Diaz is such an inadvertently endearing personality that it's easier to forgive these comments, but I think the fact that nobody calls him out on it further reinforces his delusion and increases his paranoia that everyone is out to get him, which, in turn, further delves him deeper into his "victim" mentality.

No the two 'real' losses Nick always refers to, are Jeremy Jackson and KJ Noons. His argument against the others is that he doesn't count decisions where he didn't really get beat up more than the other guy, but just lost an arbitrary points game.

This, and he has the cardio and insanity to win a fight that goes until someone taps or naps.
 
I will give Nick credit, for a guy that hasn't won a fight since 2011, somehow he has managed to develop a following that actually thinks he is the best fighter on the planet.
Well done Nick, well done.

You really expect me to believe Nick Diaz acknowledges the KJ Noons loss?

Anderson could never finish Nick. The fight was pretty competitive ha and Silva was on roids.

He lost every single round and showed zero urgency at any point in the fight. That is not being competitive.

That is fighting for his paycheck and to survive to a decision. Him and his brother do it all the time.

And no top fighters are getting finished fighting like a Diaz brother. Simply waiting for their opponent to throw strikes and trying to counter, then waiting and waiting. Playing prevent defense is how to describe the Diaz style for several years now.

Diaz says that he's the best fighter, if the rules didn't so heavily favor point fighting and top control wrestlers.

Is that true? Who knows.

If Condit was penalized for kicking and running all night, and GSP was penalized for stalling on the ground, and they were forced to actually fight Nick, he could've actually won those fights.

Lol. None of that is true.
