Nick Diaz was definitely alive and well at the UFC 158 press conference to promote his welterweight title fight against Georges "Rush" St-Pierre. Diaz, notorious for skipping press conferences and media events, seemed happy to be in Montreal and excited for a fight he's been wanting for years.
"Nobody had the balls to say anything; I was up there in the rankings and I had the balls to say I want this fight. I was promoting this fight a long time ago".
Diaz also doesn't believe his foe truly asked for this fight.
"I don't believe that he asked for this fight", proclaimed the former Strikeforce and WEC champion. "I don't believe it for one second".
Although it may be early for personal jabs and trash talking, Diaz definitely respects GSP and does not have anything personal against him.
"I don't have anything to say about him. I like the guy just fine. I don't especially like his fighting style -- he does what he does well."

"I'm as ready as a car accident." -Nick Diaz..
Just realized he writes with his right and fights southpaw.
"Oh I see... Yeah, drugs are bad haha"
"Did you stop to smoke pot, this week?"
"Did you?! ಠ_ಠ"
Hahahahahahahahaha!
he seems like a nice guy
This is one of the best Nick Diaz interviews of his entire career.
Good luck to both men, been anticipating this fight a long time!
I love Nick Diaz. "I want to start talking better" 2 minutes later... "I'm the real what it is."
Can't wait
Nick Diaz is back! I have waited so long for the real champ to return to UFC! Go Nick! 209!
This guy is so freiken awesome
girl: did you stop smoking pot?
diaz: did you??
hahahaha
"AS READY AS A CAR ACCIDENT"----YEAH!
GSP's face was jacked up at the post fight presser lmao! HOLLLLD ON for dear life!!
Why is it so impossible to find interviews from the Jan 203 Montreal presser?? Nick seems so relaxed!
lol "about as ready as a car accident right you know? your never ready for that one" hahah another classic quote!
Legend
he` a one off..his brooding charisma and vulnerability beats gsp`s squeeky clean,boy next door,playing the percentages professionalism.love to see him rewarded.
How can you not like this guy.
Nick and Nate are two of the most entertaining fighters EVER!!!
never seen him crack a smile until now
GSP has been my fav fighter since 2006 but I truely now have a new love and appreciate for Nick Diaz. He really is the real deal man who is just terribly misunderstood.
so much more confident and well spoken!
couldnt agree more my friend.
Nick Diaz has more personality than the half of the UFC roster combined
droppin knowledge on fools!
Agree, never get a quiet, respectful, and cool person mad cause you never what they're capable of doin
LOL You got me there.
Nick ,you are going down !
Look at the guy in the white jacket at 2:12. He nods like whats up and then when Diaz walks away his face turns to "what the fuck"hahaha
Few, if any are more professional, respected and respectful than GSP.
Always a gentleman never a thug never a punk. What all fighters should be.
Nick is way better in front of cameras than in the past
Good analogy. You are never ready for a car accident. You can't duplicate a fight in training camp. You can work on cardio and techniques, but bodies collide in the octagon like cars.
I AGREE 100% !
nailed it, and i dont really care who wins this fight, but being a pot smoker myself and seeing Diaz' all or nothing attitude I guess I kinda want him to win. Georges is a great person, and so is Diaz. GL to em both!
Drugs are bad HAHAHA PSA from Nick Diaz that is awesome
Nick is the dude. I'm a big fan of both GSP and Diaz.. should be one hell of a fight.
Nick is a character
" as ready as a car crash" nick diaz. i like that mentality
Ready as a car accident... You're never ready for that one. Well said Nick.
2:00 that's Carlos Condit!!
exactly as i predicted
Verbally and in the fight.
You're right
I hope so man. I would love to see Diaz sub him.
Same!
LOL... I was thinkin the same
Don´t know why but i fucking love the Diaz brothers.
ITS ABOUT TIME NICK WINS A BIG FIGHT
You watch him do that 24/7? That's just beyond sick.
I never liked Diaz but I do now. After the Gomi fight I grew a new respect for him...
\
I like how many people in this keep trying to make others feel stupid while at the same time misspelling every two words
nick diaz will bring the pain...this guy is as real as it gets!
Yeah, I hope it was good for him, and I hope he comes with a solid game plan instead of the same stubborn approach. I'd love to see Diaz win.
I agree. Daley is the #1 P4P fighter in the world right now, and only because Fedor isn't fighting anymore. Diaz was lucky to make it out of that fight alive.
That Diaz vs Silva matchup is eating me up man. Set that shit up Dana
I understood him perfectly. yes, he rambles on. He's not known for talking. He's not Chael Sonnen. He doesn't even like doing it, but he's trying. He's known for bringing it every time and ducking no one. I am big fan, but I agree GSP will probably win, unless Diaz has truly realized how necessary it is to alter one's approach to adapt to certain fighters. GSP will play it safe, and dry hump his way to another victory, as always.
@iiwatcher I never seen GSP lay &prayed please tell me which fight
I love the way people hate on GSP because he uses his brain first when fighting, he's the best and its good to see people in the octagon who aren't simply trained thugs
Yeah I realize Diaz is the underdog but I think he can win and I hope he does. The great thing about MMA is you can't always predict exactly what will happen. Especially with someone like Diaz who may not do a lot of flashy moves but has shown a lot of toughness. A lot of people thought Frank Shamrock would beat Diaz too, but their jaws just dropped when Diaz beat him down.
Yeah it makes it harder to predict.
@KevinKillaKam very true. He will be more then ready for him, and he will use his boxing to do it.
"hahaha oh... yeah, drugs are bad"
- Nick Diaz
WEED IS NOT A DRUG NICK! ITS A PLANT! Nd his lil bro is one of my favorite fighters!
Im from Quebec and really like and support GSP but I think that this guy will get the best of it this time. If I had big money to bet on that fight I would put it on Diaz...
Nice to see GSP wearing one of his Dad's shirts.
"Im about as ready as a car accident. No ones ever ready for a car accident."
I think stylistically this is interesting, GSP with a solid boxing/karate base and the most insane wrestling (especially since he was never a collage or university wrestler ... vs ... Diaz with a super slick boxing style and karate of his own, mixed with the counter style to wrestling in jiu-jitsu - both excellent fighters in their dominant and/or preferred positions and both being basically the Yin to the other's Yang
lmao that logic...
I was going to say the same thing, he even mentioned it. Spoken like a different person, dang.
Id love to see someone beat GSP. nothing against George but it would at least stir up the division and get GSP back on the grind.
And if that person is Nick Diaz that would be awesome.
LOL tell us how you feel brah--don't hold back. XD
Cant wait to see GSP fight without the ring rust!!!!
I'm fuckin glad he makes it clear about the call out " Where You At George Where You At Mother Fucker " cause that the one everyone heard loud and clear . Dana and his Prom King
i love nick diaz great guy great fighter aswell as gsp should be a good fight
the only reason why I want to see diaz vs silva is because itd be a sick stand up fight
They hold you tightly, like GSP does, bro.
mirin ambition good on ya
2:12 LOL
If i had a nickel for every time he says "you know".......
not a top 5 contender??? And its not about being able to go 5 rounds and not get tired. Its about being able to go 5 rounds HARD and KNOW u won't get tired. Diaz''s cardio is on another level to these guys and thats for real...
Nick Diaz is the man !!!!!!! I really wish he could have stopped the rake downs, I really wanted him to win !!!!! He is the real deal, a real person, probably the beast friend u could have !!!! A real American, don't take no shit of no one !!!!!
"like getting ready for a car accident"
I guess it depends on what information you consider important. He's clearly doing well for himself.
not trying to lecture at all, i found your comment intresting and wanted to share my view. GSP was my favourite fighter for a long time and i also trained for 10 years and i still think GSP will have a hard time haha but well we will see soon, cheers
Diaz has good kicks sure he doesn't use em often but wen he does it's some nice kicks, alot of people have the wrong image of Diaz, he's really a cool guy I've watched Diaz for awhile he's a true fighter with tremendous skill. I hope he proves everybody wrong I like george but I wouldn't mind seeing Diaz get the belt
Diaz!!!!!
I'm gonna laugh when GSP lays on Diaz for 25 minutes.
I see it going one of 10+ ways based on how much GSP wants to win OR not lose and I don't narrow it down based on the past as if I have 1000 data points and a crystal ball...
you right hand.. 24/7
"he is known to ground and pound" I think you meant lay & pray. I would love to see GSP ground & pound for once.
train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day!
did you stop to smoke pot?
"Nick Diaz is the most disrespectful human being I've ever met and I'm going to put the worst beating on him"- Georges St.Pierre......this means GSP is gonna go off
To say Diaz beat Condit is to say octagon control is more important than strikes, power strikes, strategy, and physicality. Face it folks-Diaz shoulda grabbed Condit-but he couldnt bc Condit hit/kicked every time he got close. Thats called neatralizing ur oponents strengths. I truly appreciate all his fans blind and unwavering support, but they get way to wrapped up in his tough guy talk. And I personally respect the shit out of his skills.
Unlike that dude "Wirthquake," I happen to be a fan of both Nick and Georges. That being said, for the sake of accuracy, Nick went about four years after his no-contest with Gomi before he fought reasonably ranked top-10 opponent in Paul Daley.
"Ready as a car accident"; lol, not bad. There's a good point there.
We'll see about that
about as ready as a car accident , your never ready for that one.
@RompYa Haha read this and I had Gsp voice in my head haha
Listen to Lord Thuban give a candid GSP vs Diaz prefight analysis.
Good point, but more Quotes are yet to come.
