JaguarCrazy2832 Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 I love Alex but please dont make him fight Jones. I expect it to be VERY similar to the Gane fight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he got dropped Alex waited cause Herb ran in but stopped. So Alex got two clean hammer fists in that prob woke Jiri up, all of that before Jiri rolled over and took 6-7 more shots. Jiri didn't defend any of the 8-9 shots that landed. Herb should've stopped it as soon as Alex landed the 1st hammerfist cause Jiri was just laying there dead and took it w/o probably even knowing where he was.

DreamKid Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Gonna talk about Diaz-Masvidal here and not in the boxing thread, feels right. Something notable about Nate and Nick's style specifically when you analyze MMA vs pure Boxing is how valuable those extra 2 minutes are in an MMA round for them along with those smaller gloves. So far in both of Nate's boxing fights vs Jake Paul and Masvidal you've seen that pour on effect start to take place right as the rounds are ending. Those final two minutes are where Nate and Nick drown guys who can't keep pace throughout the 5 full minutes. In boxing their pure cardio and volume onslaught is nerfed. Add in the the bigger gloves covering more surface area and taking away those long looping shots the Diaz brother sneak around the smaller gloves in MMA, and it's almost impossible for these boxing contests to showcase their true style. The narrative becomes more about Nate constantly moving forward, his chin, and his antics vs any real skill. I think a good fun fight to make next would be Nate Diaz vs Dustin Poirier at 170. Allows both of them get a good payday and gives Dustin an easier fan friendly sendoff fight. Also brings Nate back into the fold for that potential 3rd fight with Conor, which will probably be the final fight of both of their MMA careers. I'm also demanding Sean Strickland vs Nick Diaz. Let the two pressure boxers collide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustin is sounding like he wants one more so him vs Diaz would be awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaguarCrazy2832 Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Dustin also says he doesnt need the money and that if he isnt fighting to get to the title then there’s no point. Beating Diaz does nothing to get him closer to a title Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had been scheduled once before but it didn't happen, but they have been chirping each other ever since. Easy fight to sell too.
