First off, Tiki...
Please never bring this guy back into the UFC. End of story. 4 unsuccessful attempts at winning, he has no fan base, just a ****y attitude. The only thing he's good at is making excuses for losing.

Chris Lytle did a good job and took the fight where it needed to go. Personally I'd love to see a rematch with Lawler, but in all fairness he should get a fight with Diaz. I think Diaz vs. Lytle would be a war. Both guys have mad skills standing up (as Diaz proved last night against Robbie) and both guys are well versed on the ground. I'd give this fight to Diaz, but you can't count Lytle out.

Robbie Lawler... this kid is good, but I'm happy Diaz showed everyone that Robbie's style of standup won't always work. I feel Robbie should get another shot in the UFC, and very soon. He's a marketable kid with a bright future and hopefully they give him another up and comer to pound on soon. I look forward to seeing Robbie work his way back up in the UFC.

Imagine how good guys like Lawler, Diaz, Lytle will be in a few years!

man HOORAY for Nick Diaz!

tho i gotta say that KO shot was blind luck. that was a dirty ass punch and he was not even lookin but heel yeah good for him!


Lawler, I didn't like before but now that he has been KO'd i like him. its not that he even got KO'd its that as soon as he face planted he pounced bakc up and tried to contain himself. thats good ****.

I don't think it was luck, Diaz has been working hard on his boxing ever since getting the **** knocked out of him by Jeremy Jackson a few years ago. Diaz has legit standup skills now, and he proved it last night.

Watching Lawler stumble around the octagon trying to regain his bearings was ****ing hilarious.

I agree on every point. I didn't think Diaz was ready for Lawler althought I have told people his potential is huge....just thought it was early for him. Guess I was wrong. Good for him.

Also glad Robbie's standup got exposed. Maybe he will work on it now and get better.

**** Tiki

Lytle owns.

That shot on Lawler had him out before he hit the ground. In fact, it was hitting the ground that woke him up. I knew Diaz would win, but I can't belive how he dominated Robbie. Espically on the feet.

I wouldn't go as far as saying that Diaz has "Crazy skills" standing up, he's average at best. It was Lawler, he is incredibly overrated... I still remember when he said that would love to KTFO of Silva...HAHAHA.
I would sure as hell pay my money to see Lytle fight Lawler or Diaz.

Tiki's a ***** that doesn't know how to accept losing graciously. There's no reason at all that he should be back inside the octagon.

I agree with everyone about Tiki. I'm starting to think that he wasn't joking when he said the Lawler fight was stopped on a cut.

Lytle clearly rocks, but I see him in the same light as I do Evan Tanner... I think he'll beat the undercard fighters most of the time, but he'll get some more trouble from the top flight guys.

I don't think it was all that funny watching Robbie stumbling after getting KO'd. Stain, your sense of humour is playing up... I'd go and see the doctor about that if I were you.
