Prediction: correct Diaz   wrong Decision  

Wow this is do or die for Diaz. And if gomi loses he may think about starting to apply for his his services
elsewhere.
This fight just reeks of awesomeness. My God I am so glad this fight is announced.

By far, Gomi is the more powerful striker, and that does not bode well for Nick's younger brother.
As he tends to get sloppy when facing a striker with ko power.

But Diaz has the reach and the endurance to make this intresting.

If Gomi can get inside he can win, but he must improve his clinch work drasticlly.

As Nate will be looking for the td when ever Gomi is in close.

The key is in Gomi's conditioning.

If Nate utilzes a smart strategy he will win.
I like Nate via Decision.

I gotta think on this one. Great matchup by Joe Silva. You have volume punching vs elite power. Both guys have awesome chins though. Seems like a toss up to me right now...

Prediction: wrong Gomi   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Gomi only chance is catch Diaz early with some huge shot. Diaz propably wear him down, keep him in distance and then submit him. But I really want to see Gomi knocking fools out again. :)

Nate Diaz is easily worse than his bro, but Gomi seems ******* lost in the cage these days. However, I think Gomi can win with better striking and I don't think that Nate has the wrestling to take him down.
