Prediction: correct Diaz   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 4  

Hey the community picks are at 50/50 right now. This should be a good one, either guy can win I think depending on what type of fight we get. On the ground I would think Miller has advantages (but not 100% safe for him) and obviously on the feet Diaz has a big one.

to the people picking Diaz by KO/TKO .. have u been hit on the head a little too much ?! The only way I see Diaz winning this is by a submission .. I've done tons of research on this card .. really confident in my picks for this card

Prediction: wrong Miller   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

I'm picking Miller to defeat Nate.  I like them both as fighters but feel Jim's wrestling will trump Nate's jits and boxing.
I'm really looking forward to watching this fight & am really happy it's on free TV.

I assume it will be a 5-rounder.

I want both Nate and Jim and Melvin Guillard to receive title shots this year.  They've all paid enough dues.  They all are deserving.

I'm picking Miller for the decision but rooting for Diaz all the way! that way at least if he loses I can be happy I picked the right fighter on here!

I don't get how people could pick a KO/Sub victory for either guy, this is the battle between the unfinishable of the Lightweight division.

Yeah Guillard is definitely deserving of a title shot.  Was finished twice via a rear naked choke in the first round.

Cerrone was perfectly designed to make Diaz look good. Miller is perfectly designed to make him look bad.

Prediction: wrong Miller   wrong Decision  

My heart says to go with Miller. My head says to go with Diaz (especially now that he knows he's getting a title shot with the win). However, Nate has struggled with good wrestlers in the past and Miller is not going to get sucked into any mind games like Cerrone did. So screw it, I'm going with my heart on this one and saying Miller frustrates Diaz (and maybe also the UFC who know damn well that Diaz is a lot more marketable than Miller is)long enough to get the decision.

Prediction: wrong Miller   wrong Decision  

Miller hasn't been finished in his MMA career and Diaz rarely gets any love from the judges. This is a great matchup but I'm leaning towards Miller.
