Having said that, is anyone else just a little perplexed at how good Diaz continues to look in the UFC? I say rematch him with Hermes and see how far he's really come in the past 2 years.
I think Kurt would be a much better 145 fighter in the WEC.

Faber vs Pellegrino would be sick,

I disagree. I'd say they're even, maybe even give the upper hand to Diaz becuase his BJJ defence is better as clearly seen.

Yeah. His stand up is pretty sad. He's trying to immitate his bro, but he's just not as snappy as nick. Nick is fast enough to get away with being sloppy. Nate's not... that said, his submissions are really good once his opponents do make a mistake.

Diaz brother are great to watch. Crazy tough with sick submissions. The fingers and flexing after the triangle made my entire training center cheer.

There's no luck in getting that Triangle.

That's just superior knowledge of technical Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

Which many talk they have? Few actually have.

Nate Diaz actually has it.

Position before Submission

Kurt Pelligrino should take a few lessons.

Nick gets away with it but man...if he only put some body behind those punches. ya know? Nick's stand up is frustrating.

145? I can't see Pellegrino making that without an amputation.
