Diaz is definately the better fighter but heiron has way better wrestling. If he uses his head he might stand a good chance even though i dont really seeing him getting past diaz. I'd definately love to see Daley face Davis,Lytle,swick,or alves but a fight between him and Hardy in london would be firework, hope it happens.

I am still not sure if its because he is in the game HE chose not to go to the ufc or they chose not to take him. It does seem odd that he chose strikeforce with the ufc making him a offer.

Sanchez has won his two lt weight fights but has not been so Impressive he deserves a shot now. If he gets by Gomi then give him the shot.

I dont know if he could take swick, though I would like to see it. I think Daley would ruin Lytle but in a exciting fight. I dont know if he could take swick, though I would like to see it.

When Swick ko'd him, I had a big smile on my face. I'd hope Daley could do the same. I’d like to see him against Ben Saunders, myself. When Swick ko’d him, I had a big smile on my face.

And yeah, Daley will be fun in the UFC. Looking forward to him at 105 against someone like Davis or Hardy or Saunders... total slugfest.

"I was definitely surprised and I was ready to go back to the UFC. I got a great opportunity with Strikeforce, though, and I’m excited to fight for a title.” You know what that says to me? "I thought I had a much better chance beating Diaz than GSP." I like the guy and maybe that's just the way my mind works, but it does seem a bit odd. Cory, he mentions the video game in there a few times. Can you tell us if it was an issue in negotiations? Statements like- “I had other offers on the table and with the UFC. I just signed a video game deal that I was obligated to [and] I couldn’t get out of it. “UFC stepped up the offer for me. It was a great offer, but again, I signed a deal with EA Sports." make me believe that maybe the threats were not empty?
