    Diaz has a pretty good sense of humor. Ray, I think it cuts what you don't like about him. Probably some truth in his saying that he wasn't getting his due. In retrospect, the Connor team would probably liked to have thought twice about Nate vs their golden boy.

    Yes, I think Nate was on a beach somewhere when getting a call about if he wanted to fighti a world class guy in less than two weeks. I can't remember, but didn't Connor fight at an unfamiliar weight against Nate? It's a strange sport with all the hype and presumably training, each saying...

    I'm leaning towards the Irish dude, simply because the last time they fought, he punched up Diaz pretty good before getting choked out. I like Diaz though, he fights anybody. His skill level just might not measure up to Connors.

    In the vid I posted, unless the translation wasn't complete, i don't think the word "fighting" was much used, more something akin to "self preservation". There was the statement by the last man steeped in the feeding style of White Crane, saying that in an encounter he saw his dinner. I guess...

    I've studied some White crane, know the feeling of being helpless sparing with an advanced fighter. A very interesting vid on the possible origins of karate, perhaps originating from White crane taken from China to Okinawa. Some dedicated people in the vid, and Master Lau in part four at 44...
