Something you guys need to understand is that there are guys who can box and guys who can just fight.
Nick Diaz can fight.
His boxing is very awkward and unorthodox but he knows how to fight. When he's in the ring, it's like a fish in water.
I have worked with guys who look great on the heavy bag, speed bag, double end bag, mitts...etc
Yet when they get in the ring they panic. Nick Diaz might not be the prettiest boxer but he just knows how to move, connect with short accurate punches and is a fighter and that's something you can't teach, it just comes natural to some.

True indeed. Like others have said, the Diaz Bros. durability and stamina is what makes their stand up truly effective.
Frankie Edgar also gets my vote for an MMA fighter who mixes Boxing and MMA well.
