Cerrone is going down. I think Nate will win by submission third round.

i think nate, will get smashed in the first 3 minutes

No way, Nate has only been finished one time in his whole career. Never in the ufc, and I don’t see cowboy subbing Nate and has less of a chance to tko him.

Cerrone has one TKO

This is true. Most of his wins are by submissions, and I don’t honestly see Diaz getting tapped.

A motivated Cowboy

Is a bad, bad man. He whooped Paul Kelly’s ass when he was completely out of the fight mentally due to a recent death to a close loved one. Nate has tried to fire up Cowboy and it’s not a smart thing to do to a guy who notoriously starts off slow and has to get his head in the fight (which was more prevalent in his WEC career than his recent 4-run UFC stint).

He’s 100% mentally prepared and fired up for how many times Nate continues to disrespect him. WAR COWBOY!

I can't say I'm a fan of how Cerrone presents himself

But the last time he fought pissed off he made Jamie Varner look like an absolute amateur.

Big question is what will happen when Cerrone puts on his cowboy hat for the weigh-in staredown.

He’s going to wear a “Fuck Stockton” cowboy hat that he fully expects to hit the floor…then have his normal Tapout one waiting for him after they get separated.

This is a big fight for Nate.

Every time I think he’s crossed a bridge, he loses a fight. If he beats Cowboy I will be very impressed.

I was shocked when he lost to the Korean and MacDonald. I hope he wins.

the Korean

Congratulations on beating ………… the Russian.

Also, a good amount of people thought Diaz beat Kim.

Almost as shocking as when he lost to that white guy, that other white guy, the tattooed guy, and the guy with the shaved head.

Kudos for calling him Korean and not Japanese or Chinese though.

by Jabroni on Dec 29, 2011 10:39 AM EST up reply actions  

I was so happy when this happened

Was watching the live stream and when they went to face off I thought “man I hope Nate flips his hat off”, and he did just that! Amazing, love it.

Yeah now all the people saying Nate is a big disrespectful meanie can turn around and say the same thing

About Cerrone! If someone tells you there going to “Get in that ass” you have to do something. The funny part about the video is that Dana was so prepared for this he was already pushing them both back by the time Nate’s done knocking off Donald’s hat.

Cerrone comes off as a cocky asshole and Nate, well, he is a Diaz. No doubt hyping the fight was presumably a pivotal part in this, but I really don’t think these two like each other all that much.

I don't care about who wins this.

But I wonder WTF is wrong with people. Why do they like the Diaz brothers and hate Jon Jones? Yeah, sure, the Diaz brothers are ‘for real’

They are ‘for real’ assholes. Jon Jones might be manufacturing a persona, but he’s at least TRYING to be a polite guy. What, would you rather hang out with someone trying to be likeable, or someone who’s genuinely a jerk?

by spamslots on Dec 28, 2011 8:10 PM EST reply actions  

Probably the jerk. Because at least he’s honest.

Gotta shake my head on that.

Have you ever worked alongside one of those “I’m an asshole so suck it” types? Give me a guy who is professional and courteous any day, even if that’s not who he really is. No really, I think a lot of you have this weird fantasy that if you’re actually around these people, you’ll appreciate their ‘honesty’ no matter what, up to the point where it’s you they’re being rude to. Still, what you think is what you think…

There’s nothing worse than a fake motherfucker. If the guys an asshole at least you know what to expect. Fake asses go whatever way the wind blows.

not agreeing with this is like saying ur a fake who doesn’t know how to handle people who are assholes.

I'm with you

Why people respect someone for being a dick aka “Being real”, and dislike someone who tries to be respectful, and polite instead of a dick because “they are being fake”…

That is ridiculous to me.

When they are being rude or blunt with me I get to act the same towards them, which is an entertaining shift from small talk if I’m at work. But I see Paul Daley as the guy you’re describing and love him for it, I see Diaz as the “the worlds out to get me” guy.

Polite doesn’t win fans in the hardcore MMA fanworld. Jon Jones could donate a kidney to save a child’s life while Nick/Nate could curbstomp some guy for just looking at them wrong while acting like petulant thugs and guess who would be raged over?

Hell, there were a couple of guys that were all over Urijah for shaving his head in support of his sister who was in a serious accident. Like he was some pretentious superficial douchebag for doing it.

Diaz by sub. He will stay outside with his reach and jab, jab, jab him to death until he is ready to die

Here's an interesting stat

Donald will have fought 5 times this year in the UFC after Friday, Bendo fought 3 times this year and in his next is fighting for the title and Pettis has some serious catching up to do fighting only twice this year going 1-1.

Here is my take on it.

Henderson-Better fights, beating Jim Miller, and Guida
Cowboy-Is the new company man as he has taken 3 of those four fights on short notice
Pettis-Overrated fighter who won a very close fight to Henderson (Who chose to neglect his wrestling until the later rounds, to try and show case his stand up) with that crazy kick off the cage.
