Both are cocky but I got to go with the BJJ guy. Never was a Shamrock fan, his next fight should be against Tito and call it a day. I would love to see Diaz choke out Shamrock!

Sure Shamrock is the bigger ,stronger ,MMa legend guy he is also getting old. While Diaz may have not performed up to par in the past he is not an idiot& i'm sure he knows the impications that'll come with beating a legend like Frank Shamrock. Diaz just needs to stay focus use his reach to beat Shamrock to the puch,constanly throw jabs & Combos throw head&Leg kicks,then shoot for the takedown. Theres no doubt in my mind that Diaz will end up on his back wich will be the perfect time for him to use his upsideguard that he was known for in the UFC. If he does this he can keep from sustaing to much damage while he'll be looking for the sub. Besides if Serra can beat Gsp,Frank mir mirror the Minotaur, Gonzaga crocop Mirko, and Rashad knock out Chuck then Diaz can definately beat Shamrock. I definately look forward to Diaz briging this one back to the Home town for us. Plus DESPITE what some of you IGNORANT people think Stockton has it's nice parts as well as its bad parts the only thing is the people with money don't do anything to help the poor, they just treat us like shit cause were from a poor environment. Also we seem hella ghetto because we don't take shit from anybody. Ask anybody from Stocktone & they'll tell you the same exact thing. Any way's i just wanted let people know why we are how we are out here. While the odds are against Diaz you can never count one of us Stocktonians out of a fight.

Tue, 07 Apr 2009 16:25:32 +0000 http://fiveouncesofpain.com/?p=13518#comment-69179 agreed hindsight, but i just don't see Diaz standing much of a chance.. i mean, both guys have such amazing groundwork, but we all know neither of them are going to use it.. at all.. and if they did, Shamrock's got roughly the same BJJ skill level as Nick but with alot more power, and better wrestling.. and on the feet, Shamrock has heavier hands.. Now, i will say that Nick's chin is great, but i've never even seen Shamrock rocked.. he's only been KO'd once in over 30 fights and it was a head kick.. Also, we see the same Frank show up just about every time.. But we never know what Nick Diaz we're going to get.. We could get the Diaz that doesnt block any shots and ends up cut or hurt for it.. We could get the Diaz that never gets touched, and lands every punch with precision. We could, by some miracle, get the Diaz that wants to take it to the ground.. his performance changes in every fight, but he still gets wins.. all i'm saying is, Shamrock's just a bigger form of Nick Diaz with more perks in some areas.. but, i hate seeing Nick lose, so i'll be rooting for him.. agreed hindsight,
