Henderson vs. Diaz

This is the official discussion thread for Henderson vs. Diaz. Let's see what you've got.

Anik is now added to my **** list, along with that Bill Maher *********. Suspend me again, **** the free world trick.

The amount of people picking Diaz to submit Henderson is ******* laughable, LOLOLOL. 

@MikeLovesTacos XD Dude. Calm down. I don't hate you, I like you actually. I enjoy reading your polarizing comments but the Henderson/Diaz fight is a big one with one of my favorites and you just so happen to have chosen the side that I'm not on. Because you are probably the most outspoken person on Team Benson, you are the target until the fight is over. Think of when you and I would trash on CONDIT729 on the GSP/Condit thread, well think of yourself as the CONDIT729 of this thread. I don't wanna see you get suspended and I don't want to be on your "**** list". You are on not on my side, therefore you are the enemy. But it is no way personal, even if it may sound like it.

With that being said, are you stupid? People say Benson Henderson is unsubmittable but Jim Miller literally never tapped out in his MMA career (which is more than what Benson Henderson could say) and Nate Diaz caught him in one of the most vicious guillotines in MMA history. Not only can it happen but if someone were to submit Benson, it'd be Nate Diaz. The BETTER Diaz brother might I stress.

I also find it funny how the reason why I'm on your "**** list" right after I, along with the help of Franklin, post an extremely sound argument dismissing Nick Diaz. An argument so sound that you can't help but be forced to agree with, so instead you try to get yourself suspended. Give credit where credit is due, and agree. That is all you need to do.

Think I'm going to go with Diaz on this one.  Nothing to do with who I like.  The problem I see for Bendo is that he isn't going to be able to impose his wrestling on Diaz who is also a big LW.  This means he will have to stand.  I think Bendo gets bested standing with Diaz.  Henderson's standup isn't really all that great.  Look what happened to him when he tried to stand with Pettis.  Now if he would have stuck to his wrestling he probably would have beat Pettis.  I just don't think he can impose a ground game on Diaz.  So....

I gotta go Bendo in this fight because he has a weapon that has always been Diaz's weakness and thats the leg kicks. Bendo is going to chop Diaz down with those leg kicks along with mixing his striking and wrestling.

No need to blow up the thread in madness, insanity and mayhem.  We're all just a lot of friendly people enjoying some light, friendly sparring over pleasant sports chat.

Henderson will use leg kicks, and takedowns to make Diaz made. Take him down at the end of round one, let him think he is getting the sweep, and grab his neck just like he did Cerrone in their rematch. Benson is gonna submit Diaz, and get his black belt as he retains his UFC belt.

Nah man. Henderson is gonna get beat up on the feet and then subbed, bet on it.

Diaz was falling when Cowboy was leg kicking him just imagine what Bendo is going to do to Diaz's legs. 

He is going to mix the leg kicks and wrestling. Yes he did beat cowboy but Cowboy was dropping him with leg kicks and i'm sure Bendo's leg kicks hit a lot harder then Cowboys. 

Diaz wrestles to a decision victory. 

I apologize, I'm on my period. 

UFC posting some vids for everyone to get pumped about this fight.

Holy ****, eight free fights. That makes me happy.
