A really, really cool article that compares Nick Diaz's techniques with old-time bareknuckle boxing. Think it may have been posted before, but if not a must read. http://www.cagesideseats.com/2012/11/16/3642584/the-pugilist-comparing-nick-diaz-daniel-mendoza-sweet-science-boxing-wrestling-prizefighting |

I posted this a while back too. It's too bad Jack Slack seems to be a Diaz hater, I'd like to read one of his comprehensive articles on Nicks style.

SickEyeDiaz - I posted this a while back too.
This is true. I stopped taking Jack Slack seriously after his bias against certain fighters. If you're gna observe fighting styles while getting paid for it, then you gotta provide a fair observation and not some hater point of view. The guy is a joke.

Very nicely done. I used to be a huge Diaz fan, until his knuckle-headed antics ensued. I get it, tough upbringing, social anxieties, etc. He gets a bad rap but at one point you have to take responsibility for your own actions, especially when you're a grown man. I hope Ceasar Gracie has the Diaz's best interests in mind, and helps him keep it together.

Very interesting stuff. My grandfather did a lot of bareknuckle boxing to supplement his income after WW2 because he came back, I guess you could say crazy, so he had a tough time holding down a regular job. So he more or less lived off his pension from the British Navy as well as boxing matches that he could get around Newfoundland. My Grandmother told me his longest fight was 21 rounds against a Scottish boxer that was travelling with a Circus. |

Diaz bros are the shit, plain and simple. Shakespeare himself couldn't create better characters. They will go down as legends. I could see a movie being made at some point too! |
