Future of Nick Diaz

July 27, 2012

It’s been a trying time these last 4 months as I have been faced with the prospect that one of our team’s most talented fighters had decided to leave the sport. As a fan I’ve always admired what both of the Diaz’s brought to the cage; a combination of technical brilliance and raw violence.

Nate Diaz has finally put his game together and found the formula to propel him to the top of the 155lbs division. To see Nick leave at the top of his game was difficult.

For the last couple of months I’ve watched Nick begin to frequent the gym more and more. He’s training harder now than he has for many of his fights. It was obvious that training and fighting is in his DNA. It is who he is.
This week we had a great talk and he made it clear to me that he is ready to get back to the cage. Nick Diaz will return.

To address the NSAC suspension, I will say that we have appealed to the courts and if things go our way, it will be plausible that Nick could return as early as sometime at the end of this year.
For too long NSAC bureaucrats have acted with malicious incompetence towards the fighters. We will challenge them in court.

As far as future opponents, Nick has stated that he would like to take fights “that matter”. Since GSP will be fighting Condit, he has to look elsewhere. He will respectfully ask for a fight with Anderson Silva, a fighter he respects and would like to challenge.
Silva’s camp has been speaking of a fight with GSP, possibly even at a catch weight. Nick will take that fight in a minute but has told me that should Silva decide not to drop at all, he will move up to 185lbs to face the Champ.

I will be meeting with Dana next Monday August 6th to discuss this and other issues. If you appreciate Nick’s fighting style, please let Dana know that you want Nick back ASAP.

Thank you and best regards,
Cesar Gracie

Diaz has no head movement and no footwork...why the hell would he want to fight a striker with accuracy and power...

Silva by TKO...

If u wimps really think Nick has anything for Anderson Silva... You guys are fools! Nick is tailor made for silva... Nick doesn't check leg kicks nor does he know what to do with head and body kicks either... Plus Silva is a great counter puncher that will catch Nick coming in trying to brawl with him on the cage! Plz make this happen though Joe... It's goin to be a big draw for both and Silva only wants big fights now anyway!

UPDATE: Weidman and Diaz would be a good fight too!

Nick has an iron chin but I do think my boy would take a beating over the course of 5 rounds. If the fight hit the ground, Nick probably has superior BJJ but he doesn't have the wrestling to take The Spider down.

The Spider has never really fought somebody like Diaz, someone who can take a beating and keep on coming forward.

A Superfight between The Spider and GSP is much more intriguing.

Both fights would do huge PPV numbers, though.

I'd be intrigued by this matchup. Much more than Weinman.

I hope Nick does come back, though... dude is a beast. He's such a beast, that they're changing the rules now just because of the Condit fight. No more !![..] leg kicks will win fights.

Anderson would have a field day with this nicca. Anderson might as well fight GSP and retire cause the Jon Jones fight is NEVER going to happen.
