Nick surprised me when he fought Anderson Silver. I didn't think he had a snow balls chance in hell. When he started layin down on the mat taunting silva was classic Nick Diaz the man has a screw loose.I think CM at 170 is a pipe dream. Sure he'd have a shot at Lawler or anybody that stands the entire fight, but I think he'd get smashed by Rory McDonald or T-Wood or any good wrestler/grappler at that weight.
I'm a little worried for Nate if he goes Stocktongangstermachoman on it(which is highly likely). Thompson did thump his ass in that fight. Nate has a solid chin, but not like Nick's.
