Georges St-Pierre vs Nick Diaz
The Stockton-born Nick Diaz is going to return inside the octagon after 6 years. He will take on Robbie Lawler in a rematch at UFC 266, and fans are really excited to see him compete.
Nick has had a long and decorated career; the former Strike Force champion was involved in some of the most gruesome wars during his run in the UFC. He took on top-level contenders and was known to break them both physically and mentally in every aspect of the game. As fan favourite Diaz prepares to step inside the octagon once again we look back at Nick Diaz worst fight in his professional career.
Nick Diaz worst fight was probably against Georges St-Pierre. Diaz was extremely effective with this approach but there were some fights where he just got beat up. One such instance was his fight against the former two-division champion Georges St-Pierre. GSP had to pull out from his fight against Diaz due to an injury.
Diaz called GSP out and said, he is not hurt, he is just scared. The fight finally happened at UFC 158, and GSP battered Diaz all over five rounds. All the trash talk from Diaz didn’t affect GSP at all, and he controlled the fight on feet as well as on the ground.
Nick Diaz worst fight was also his last shot at the UFC’s undisputed title
GSP was clearly winning the fight, at the end of the second round Diaz went back to his corner and said, “Win or lose, he still hits like a bitch.” Although Diaz was trying to keep his “Gangster” persona intact, these words clearly showed that he knew there was no chance he could have won that fight.
The fight went on for five full rounds, and GSP conveniently won the fight. Diaz lost his chance at the title, and he realized that he was nowhere close to the level of the former champ, Georges St-Pierre, and rightfully so Diaz never competed for the title again. This is undoubtedly Nick Diaz worst fight.
