All this circus needs is for Karo to get involved the we could have KJ and Karo Vs Nick and Nate in a tag team event.

If you go back and watch the fight when Noons defeated Edwards you will see that Nate Diaz is the one who started the sh**. In the future if they are going to bring in fighters to promote upcoming fights then they need to just bring in the fighters. This will eliminate idiots like Nate Diaz coming into the ring. MMA fighters are professionals and Nate Diaz needs to learn how to be a professional.

If I recall correctly, it was Nate Diaz who threw the water bottle at Noons’ dad which prompted him to retaliate.

Watch it again- it happened in the reverse order you think it did. Diazes enter the ring (at the promotion’s behest), Old Man Noons takes a swing, Nate throws the plastic water bottle.

the entertainment factor of this feud is huge. diaz thugalicious style of arguing is the best. you can hate on him all u want, but please dont deny the fact that his antics are beyond comedy. i cant wait to see what he says or does next, yes hes no samurai but hes got that tito ortiz and frank shamrock thing goin on where u love him or hate him, but either way u cant look away from the car wreck. and never has one of his fights been boring win or lose he will sacrifice his face to give you a good show. im lovin this and this rematch will happen and when it does admit it haters, you will be watching

Either way, the more this drags on the less I see myself liking Noons. Good call Patrick on spotting the bullshit 160 “division”.

I want to see Mark Dion fight someone…. or better yet can someone just kick that dude in the head for messing up the MMA world.

Didnt he do this same shit with Vera?

Mark Dion is the problem and Karl is just a tool.

I don’t think it’s a stretch at all to call either of these guys useless, put them up against the top guys in their division and they lose, every time. Diaz beat Gomi in a fluke match, Noons has never really beaten anyone at the top level, Diaz was run out of the UFC because he couldn’t handle top competition.

Eddie Alvarez will destroy both of these guys when he gets his shot. B.J., Sherk, Florian, Huerta, Griffon, Stevenson, Edgar, Aoki, Hansen, Calvancante, all easily above these guys at lightweight, on top of the fact that Noons and Diaz are in a BS 160 ibs made up division.

No respect for Diaz or Noons, they’re both gigantic babies who consistently whine and cry about every damn thing while they throw tantrums non-stop.

Put them up against some real competition and we’ll see if that whole Diaz “arms wide open in the air chin straight up, clowning around bullshit” style doesn’t get him KTFO. Noons bumrushing everyone all the time also doesn’t cut it consistently and when you put him up against a guy who knows how to effectively throw a jab… he’ll be toast.

LOVE Diaz!! Pure gold right there. Now will Noons pull up his skirt and make this fight happen?

Diaz is a PUNK, good fighter but a PUNK none the less.
That is telling it like it is!

KJ is scared…he needs to fire his management and take the fight so Nick Diaz can whoop his ass!

I think Diaz is rightfully justified in his frustrations with KJ.

Rematches are a pretty standard thing in MMA and I’ve rarely seen a fighter refuse a rematch for someone, never mind a champion refusing to defend his belt according to his agent, even though KJ claims otherwise some other excuse to not fight.

I believe KJ was offered an opportunity to fight on the first CBS show as well and turned it down as well. For a guy thats complaining he’s not getting enough promotion or money he sure seems to be picky about who he fights. If Diaz is such a cakewalk why not just take the easy money and have the bragging rights at the end?

So wouldn’t you be frustrated when the organization is offering you a title match, but it won’t happen because the champion is scared for one reason or another to accept the fight?

I think its a little bit of a stretch Patrick, for you to call them useless. I side with Diaz on this, and he has every right to voice his complaints and make them known considering Noons is taking away from Nick supporting his family. A fight for the title on CBS would be a huge break for Nick considering all the bad luck he has had in his fighting career. Noons is taking money out of Nick’s pocket for in my opinion a horrible reason. Since when do fighter manager’s decide who are top contenders for a promotion? Alvarez might be a fight Noon’s would want more than Diaz, but that doesn’t make him the number 1 contender. Fighting for DREAM is not fighting for EliteXC.

Both Noons and Diaz are entirely useless. Stop bitching at each other and being drama queens 24/7, christ almighty, you’re supposed to be fighters not cheerleaders.
