Post UFC 143: Four different routes for Nick Diaz

Nick Diaz lost a hotly contested decision Saturday night to Carlos Condit. This no doubt has thrown the dynamo for a loop considering he would have had a date with GSP lined up had he taken the win (and the interim title). In fact, he seemed so disgusted with fighting after the way he lost the match that he subsequently retired from MMA. Knowing his history of brash decisions we are only left to hope that he goes back on that plan, and keeps scrapping.

Georges St. Pierre offers his thoughts on Nick Diaz vs. Carlos Condit

In his nine-year career, UFC veteran and welterweight contender Jon Fitch just seems to not be able to catch a break despite being 13-1-1 in his UFC career with his only loss against current champion Georges St-Pierre.

TUF 13 Diary: Episode 8 Recap and Analysis
