Nick Diaz next opponent... Benson? Bisping?


I just wanted to start a little discussion here about who you guys would be interested in seeing him fight, if he isn't banned for long enough to turn him away from the sport completely.

Diaz is pretty content with fighting once a year, if that lately, but either way this whole experiment with him vs. Silva has got me wondering...

Silva may have very well had more of an advantage than I previously thought in this fight - the size difference, steroids STILL IN HIS SYSTEM AT TIME OF TESTING, and mental advantage knowing he was either on or was recently on some shit....

So, even in the loss, I am impressed with the fact that Diaz went the distance and landed so many shots on Silva and have zero doubt that if he wants it bad enough he can remain competitive or at least exciting in some big fights - like he said he would be interested in if her were to continue to compete.

The main guys I'd like to see him matched up with are - Benson Henderson at 170, Bisping at 185, Tim Kennedy, or Hendricks/Lawler. Of course this all depends on timing and what not.... but I would LOVE to see Nick Diaz fuck Benson Henderson up.


Hopefully we can all agree now, after the Silva fight, that Diaz is not completely washed up and does indeed deserve to continue fighting in the UFC.

What are your guy's thoughts?
