Trash fight. Some found Diaz entertaining, personally I didnt. Diaz is a deluded joke. I think we're lucky this was Anderson post Weidman losses because if it was that Anderson, the whole fight would have been posturing. Both guys taunting each other and posing on opposite sides. I stay not a fan of either Diaz brothers or their fighting abilities Blah I hope both fighters retire. (Anderson because I just want him to go out on a high, Diaz because I have zero love or respect for him).
fight sucked, but it was very entertaining. glad to see anderson hasn't missed a beat and was more focused this go around. i want to see him go out on a high as well, but i'm greedy and i'd love to see him keep fighting regardless. side note, the injuries w/ weidman and cain are getting ridiculous. they get injured A LOT as champs.
Diaz has legit boxing but people never give his skill the respect it deserves. Many people thought Anderson would tko him in the first round. I knew better.
Might as well either create a interim title or make it vacant like what happen to Dominick Cruz when he was champion.
I'll give Silva credit he looked good, but I think he still needs to beat a actual contender before he gets a title shot.
at that point Diaz knew that he can't catch up with Spider's quickness so he was jsut trying to be creative.

Urijah Faber vs Frankie Edgar May 16 on Fox Sports 1 I hope we get to see more fights like this where top fights from different weight classes get it on or just more dream matches taking place. I don't know what all goes on behind the scenes to book a fight but it seems like there are a lot of dream matches that could have happened that never did.
