How charming is Marloes Coenen? (So charming.)

by Chris Nelson on Oct 10, 2010 1:12 AM EDT reply actions  

She’s very charming. I don’t think you could get her to say a bad thing about an opponent. Very nice lady.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - Theodore Roosevelt

She’s the MMA version of the enchanting European woman that the main character falls in love with in movies.

Wow, Nick has come a long way in his interviews.

He seems to be a lot more even-keeled now than he ever has been. I thought that was just something he was doing for his DREAM fight, but compare Nick’s post fight interview here to the one he gave after beating Gomi in PRIDE.

I love how he can’t bring himself to look at the attractive female reporter.

to me it is the kind of thing you would expect to see from two people who used to be in a serious relationship.

the overall “god i just want to leave” mentality about it.

she’s not attractive, at all

My mistake

Thought you meant the one from the main page. Yeesh

I think nick was smitten.......

he acted like a little school kid with a crush on his teacher. LoL!

by ThaBEAST on Oct 10, 2010 8:54 AM EDT reply actions  

aI was surprised Diaz was unable to keep Noons on the ground.

 Then I was shocked to see Diaz unable to get a takedown. Diaz is a great Strikeforce fighter, but, not til he tightens up his wrestling, will he make an impact in the UFC. Nick is top 10 WW in UFC, but, the wrestling will catch up to him eventually.

If Russia attacked Turkey from the rear, Do you think Greece would help?

To his defense, Noons has historically been hard to take down and keep down.

by BJJDenver on Oct 10, 2010 11:31 AM EDT up reply actions  

You were shocked to see him not get a takedown?

Was this your first time watching him fight?

West coast sucks a dick. 2Pac had nothing on Big and Easy E and Magic Johnson got HIV cause West Coast broads are dirty as hell. I wish I was from New Jersey because the shitty bagels and pizza I have out here are making my butthole bleed.

I like how Nick can flow seamlessly from saying he had to work to get the Noons fight made into how he’s tired of fighting nobodies and wants to fight the best.

Getting bent out of shape over a fight promoter lying is like getting upset that a hooker won't kiss you. It betrays a deep lack of understanding of the nature of the profession.

Well put.

I think he means the names in the UFC. Just saying, that really is where the names are for him. I wonder how long before we see him back in the Octagon?

by BJJDenver on Oct 10, 2010 11:32 AM EDT up reply actions  

Diaz is such a great fighter I wish he was a little more personable

by skyhawkmd on Oct 10, 2010 10:59 AM EDT via mobile reply actions  

So Nate Diaz wants to fight a big name...

give him BJ Penn and I’ll actually pull for BJ.

The rest... is virtually identical

by randy maverick on Oct 10, 2010 11:26 AM EDT reply actions  

Would it kill a Diaz to make eye contact once?

by dribblebib on Oct 10, 2010 12:00 PM EDT reply actions  

Diaz' talks like the whole World is against him and his brother

He claims that he had to disrespect another fighter to get a rematch. What a crock of Dung-beetles. He probably would of had a rematch earlier if he would of been a bit more diplomatic in his approach. The Interviewer asked Diaz if he was hurt and his response was ‘yeah, thats what happens when you fight’ LOL, his face appears to have been stung by a hoard of Killer Bees.

You just went 5 rounds of dishing out and taking blunt force trauma, and are on your way to the doctor; here let me ask you a bunch of questions! Please stop these interviews.

If you don't like the effect, don't produce the cause.

Nick Diaz is terrible at interviews

but it’s funny. Seems like his mind can’t process what to say correctly and the words coming out of his mouth lol.

by daftshadow on Oct 10, 2010 2:21 PM EDT reply actions  

cut him some slack.

he just took hundreds of punches to the face. ;)

Anyone else notice

the amazing interview it looks like Nick is putting on in the background while his brother Nate is talking? I don’t know what the hell the context is for that, but I’d sure like to hear it.

That’s Greg Savage interviewing him, but I didn’t see any of that in Sherdog’s video. Must have wound up on the cutting room floor.

can that be anymore awkward?
