Nick Diaz vs. Jeff Lacy BOXING

[Snakey]

Man Diaz will get knocked out by anyone marginally good. Lacy maybe shot but he still got that left hook. Diaz got dropped by Daley who isnt really a good boxer, hes got power but shit technique.

If Daley were to catch any boxer with them 4oz gloves on, he would drop them, he has stupid power in those hands.

I do take ya point that Diaz got caught, but put bigger gloves on Diaz, and bear in mind he would only be defending against punches, then his stance and defence would be alot different. If Diaz can get back up to KO Daley, then I have little fear he would take a one of Lacy's shots.

But to be quite honest, Diaz over rates his own boxing ability. Hes also talking about fighting Vargas. I havent seen anything from Diaz that tells me he would hang with a decent pro. Just coz you can outbox a bunch of guys who cant throw punches for shit (and I watch UFC all the time, even saw it live) doesnt mean you can beat someone who can do it against the best.

I reckon if he wants to fight a boxer than give him someone decent so he can take his beating and then go back to mma. The same as what Toney got from cotoure.

Ha, I do appreciate what ya saying bro, but to compare Toney's fight with Couture and Nick having a boxing match is apples and oranges.

Randy was never going to enter Toney's realm and stand and trade punches. Randy done what he had to do and take the fight to the ground.

Give him Kid Thunder, appease his ego, then send him to GSP for a proper fight

Yeah and thats the other thing, now that strikeforce is owned by Zuffa he will have more competition. I think GSP beats him any day of the week. I just dont get the idea of going to another sport when your not even the best in your current sport.

Yea the fight with GSP is the only one out there for him really. Once GSP takes care of Shields then hopefully that match will be made. I honestly think Diaz has the bit better stand-up striking, just GSP's wrestling is off the map. Diaz has solid BJJ, just dont think GSP will give him a chance to utalise it once he has him down. Just ask BJ Penn about that
