It’s a shame that most MMA fans don’t know about Nick Diaz’s 11 fight win streak. Dude was different in his prime.
Yeah he was very good
@@MF-fo4nn bruhhhh
@@MF-fo4nn please tell me this ain’t real
@@MF-fo4nn casual...smh
@@MF-fo4nn smh
One of, if not, the best 1 round fights in MMA history.
I dont like rigged sports and matches like this one mma is clearly trying to push a racist agenda by making the black man lose
@@sameerjones4729 are you sped? Please go and rethink what you just said
Um, what? We got four black UFC champions, three of them in the top 5 pound for pound rankings. How is MMA rigged?
@@kevinfreitas6832 don't feed the trolls
@@sameerjones4729 talk about having an agenda and spreading misinformation lol
The pace he put on everyone in this 11 fight run. It was incredible
11 fight run against who? 😂😂😂

Nick was fighting bums in the MMA B-league strikeforce
Lol a joe rogan fanboy
@@Paul-sl9zm you got cooked tbh
@Paul-sl9zm okay upload your fights super bum
One of the craziest rounds. Strikforce had some killer fights before the UFC devoured them.
Hah so true. Big fan btdubz. 👊🏼💥
Same with WEC and Pride
@@StallionFernando yeah but strike force tops them both in my opinion
True Dat. Wec as well
@@italianstalian331 True especially becasue Pride was staging some of the fights
“Daley..FALLING, HE’S IN TROUBLE” that line is absolutely iconic
“DIAZ, GOING IN FOR THE KIIIIILL”
@@jacobparente2089 That line is iconic
that fall looked wrong as hell..
@@rottenhead8385 he was completely gassed that is what happens when you are exhausted and you lose your balance.
@@medbovy1406 You can't fake that level of being rocked and dazed, he was done.
ill never forget this era. this was the time where strikerforce cards were more anticipated than ufc cards.
100%
Strikeforce was awesome
Strickforce and Wec damn!!!!! fire
It was amazing. It was so good that they got on primetime CBS for the Nashville card, which ended up being maybe the most disastrous major MMA event of all time. I watched it at a bar in college and there were quite a few people there who had never seen MMA before, and came away thinking it was the dumbest sport they had ever had the misfortune to be subjected to. In no small part thanks to Lawal, Aoki, and Shields putting together three of the most legendary snoozefests in MMA history.
Peak mma
This war between these two certified legends is a masterpiece for fight fans. Full throttle from start to finish. Legendary fight.
Paul Daley is not a legend not at all. Diaz tho for sure one of the best welterweights of all time
@@davidgutierrez4606you don't know shit Daley is one of most prolific punchers in MMA history
Daley was a beast man what you talking about
@@davidgutierrez4606
Diaz is not one of the best Welterweights of all time 😂
Name his 5 best victories?
@@Paul-sl9zm You must be a lil kid no older than 20 because that's easy as fuck homie:
Daley
Lawler
Gomi
Penn
D. Sanchez
If he didn't get suspended for using WEED he would have been a UFC Champion and one of the best of all time.
Big John is the goat of reffing. Knows the difference between hurt and out
The greatest one round fight ever.
Nick Diaz is the true BMF.
One of the greatest welterweights to ever do it.
Am I to assume you never saw Arlovski vs Browne or Nunes vs Cyborg?
@@imcnblu Na this one is still better
I actually have and this fight was much better.
@@imcnbluyou do realize more than one thing can be great right
This or kongo vs barry. And don't leave out rose vs weili 1
Regardless of his last fight, he's still a LEGEND in my eyes and always will be!!
Because youre racist diaz has the mma in his pockets and rigged this fight.
Wdym regardless like it was terrible? Man was swinging none stop
6 years out he looked incredible. And he obviously wasn't training the right way. Landed over 200 strikes and threw 330 strikes in 3 rounds. That's insane. He was gassed tf out lol
@@sameerjones4729 You're not very good at this
You and uncountable Millions of world-wide fight fans Lukas.
TONS of people hear Nate talk and others speak on Nick and don’t realize how big and how important he was in MMA. Legendary fighter.
Still one of if not the best first round fights ever. It doesnt get old
The way Nick fought here is legendary. He easily could have grappled him and choked him, but he walked through fire and put out someone who throws BOMBS. Most entertaining fighter ever.
Literally nobody does that to daley
Diaz put a hole in dudes stomach
No, the reason why he and his brother stand so much is because they have really bad wrestling. Those guys prefer the mat believe or not.
@@Herc11355 both have great grappling!
@@abhijitbhattacharjee7138 Yes
This is the absolute best fight to never leave the first round. Action, every single second.
I agree best 1 rounder ever.🏆
Arlovski vs Browne
Best 1 round fight ever!
In my opinion, Arlovski vs Browne and Nunes vs Cyborg blow this fight out of the water.
Frye vs Takayama
Diaz was unstoppable in his prime . Had some 11 or 12 fight win streak and was just sooo fun to watch . Forever a fan!
Had to revisit this classic after Daley’s retirement today. Things should’ve worked about better for him but by no means should he be disappointed with the legacy he’s left including this masterpiece and riding off to the sunset in perfect fashion in his hometown. Enjoy retirement, Semtex, you deserve it!
Yes go Paul absolute legend of the game
Semtex is a beast thus video basically shows how good he was hurting prime diaz multiple times. 209
@@Ajayzmma and Diaz still whooped his ass
paul daley is underrated. great power for welterweight. wish dana didn't ban him from ufc, i've seen other fighters throw late punches/do worse things since
Daley was a dick and I'm glad Diaz beat the shit out of him
This was a legendary performance from Nick.
Mike tyson would lay his racist ass down
@@sameerjones4729 what the fuck are u saying
@@sameerjones4729 Do us a favor and never comment on a CZcams video again, thanks :)
@@sameerjones4729 did a Latino guy steal your girl or something?

Yep, they only get to know dudes who are far greater.

@@buckfuttler2877 💩💩
Longest round in fighting history. I remember seeing this live by myself. I went crazy. I thought about that fight for years.
"Don't be scared homie." I played Nick's words through my head many times going through stuff in my younger years. Nick has had a major influence on my life just through that simple phrase.
The UFC did this man so dirty.. You're forever a legend and a champ in my eyes nick!!
this!
How did the ufc do him dirty ? He couldn't pass drug tests. That's literally his own fault. It's also not the ufc who handles the suspensions for drug test... You people have no self accountability what so ever.
@@MichaelAMyers1957 some fighters get banned for 1-2 years for roids. he gets banned 5 years for weed which doesnt even affect performance in the cage
Nevada state commission did him dirty
@@MichaelAMyers1957 clown....
Best single round in combat sports. Period.
It takes two to tango
Have you seen round1 Hagler vs Hearns?
@@heresthethingyouguys 100% Paul Daley is a beast. Wish he never left UFC.
@@williamcelender9509 facts
@@williamcelender9509 he said single round as in single round fight, Hagler and Hearns went 3 rounds.
4:00 that's the hardest ive ever seen Diaz hit... Nick was a complete beast during these times, what a awesome match by both guys.
Bro Paul Daley has one of the best if not the best left hook in mma history nick taking that shot and then coming back to win by Ko was iconic😂
Looked like a peirera left💀
13 years later to the day and this still remains one of the all time great fights.
One of my favorite fights of all time. I will never forget Nick Diaz’s strikeforce reign. 🖕🏻
Sickest fight, i remember watching this going crazy.
If you like rigged racist fights then this is one for you america will do anything to make blacks look bad
@@sameerjones4729 quit trolling. Diaz beat that ass fair and square, go cry to your momma
@@sameerjones4729 crime stats accomplish that just fine
@@sameerjones4729 bro go outside please
@@sameerjones4729 lmao you guys are so fragile and quick to cry
Phew, almost missed my daily rewatch of his. Favorite MMA fight ever. 5 rounds of insane action packed into one.
Listen to the fans!!! What a main event! Great competitive contest from both gentlemen. 🤙🏻
this is by far one of the greatest fights ive ever seen in mma in all the years ive watched the sport like this fight was a true fight. any new fans if you dont know by now there wasnt a way to watch the fight anywhere on youtube so this video is a pure blessing
I hope that the UFC continues to upload classics like Cruz v Faber 1 from WEC. It would really show us how hard these legends worked to obtain their status.
That fight was really quick. Maybe upload Sonnen ragdolling Baker or some Condit or Cerrone fights.
Amen
The pace of this fight was insane
Love that post fight respect. . . It's a war it's hard not to respect someone taking everything you've got and still walking forward.
Nick saying “Smile bitch” during the face off is one of my favorite Diaz moment
Signature win here by Nick. Legend 💯
Rigged and fixed win here by nick diaz what a legend... gtfoh Anderson Silva is the GOAT of this sport not this racist clown
@@sameerjones4729 Anderson Silva is a cheat. Love him but FOH
@@sameerjones4729 lmao what racist thing has he done
His bum ass probably just lost money on the fight
Man such a great entertaining fight. Nick's punch combos were so devastating, Daley had no idea what was coming at him with the mix of head and body shots. That right hook was so sneaky, it's like Daley's body knew it was rocked but his head was on a 2 second delay before he toppled over
I can't believe we got gypt out of 5 years of this legend. Nick Diaz Army 👊
Nick Diaz = Legend Forever 🐐
The pace that these 2 fought at was insane, but Diaz is a triathlete and its no wonder Daley couldnt keep up, the way he flopped to the canvas still makes me laugh 🤣 great fight though
Nothing to do with being a traithlete....GSP ain't a traithlete but he beat the hell out of Nick haha
@@vasisphu3239 it actually does. Gsp didnt fight nick like this or he would gas out. GSP's creativity and fight IQ by slowing the pace of the fight and land select shots is why he won the fight
Nick never threw with knockout intent but that right hook that finished Daley was vicious & Daley definitely never saw it coming. The power all came from the placement & flowing with his punches so well. The body work laid the foundation for that finish though, incredible work!
One of the greatest rounds of fighting and greatest fights of all time.
Diaz is beyond a fighter... Beyond legend.. the best we ever got to see... But people don't appreciate him much... That's sad reality
The embodiment of samurai warrior
Those who know do
Nick Diaz is a true fighter. Never in a boring fight. Gets dropped brutally and still knocks the opponent out to win a title.
When the announcer yells "WOooooW Diaz has made history"!!! Still sends chills down my spine every time I hear it.
Diaz takes that hook at 1:25 like its nothing... What a G
Nick Diaz immortalized forever! Props to Paul Daley for putting up an epic fight!
This fight is one of my favorites! Very entertaining and the crowd is so alive!
That's why he's one of the best ever. He has a great style and he's tall enough to have a good reach. Such a unique athlete
Watching this instead of UFC Fight Night, such a great win for Nick.
Classic Nick Diaz. It really is a shame that he basically had a huge part of his career stolen from him.
I feel sad for that
Agreed. Absolute BS.
DUDE FOR WEED! IMAGINE!! dillashaw the best bantamweight on peds for years and a slap on the wrist! Nick Diaz on his way to be the underdog best welterweight ever and suspended for WEED!
Stolen ? He signed a contract and couldn't pass the drug tests multiple times. Nothing was stolen from him
@@MichaelAMyers1957 You get no bitches
One of my favorite fights to watch growing up. The comeback was real. Both Nick and Semtex put on a show.
Great fight. One of the GREATEST ROUNDS in MMA fighting PERIOD- any sanctioning body. Nick Diaz is one of the stars of the sport as he is a well balanced fighter without any weak areas in his skill set. World class and I stress the word CLASS because Nick has it. Love & respect to The Diaz Brothers !!! Nick & Nate y’all are our favorite fighters in this household and we are huge fans. ✌️🌲
Man I love this sport !
Such an iconic face for a staredown.
LEGEND.
Frr
Especially when Nick was mouthing "bring it bitch" I will forever remember the hype going into this fight
@@tsquirrel8675 no he said “smile bitch”
@@Jens4488 go rewatch it again, he says bring it bitch. You can perfectly see him mouth it
@@tsquirrel8675 he said smile bitch
I miss this Nick :(
We were robbed of this nick. For fucking weed.
@@mightyshady1016 dude it was a 18 month suspension he just didn't want to fight
@@mightyshady1016 nick was done after the Condit fight, he only came back for big money fights
Fck yeah!!
@@jkk8089 they kept it on if he paid a wild ass fine they would've re instated him but he said no way, so the banned was still in place , it's not that he didn't want to fight, he didn't want to pay
Man I'll always love Nick. He could put an ass whipping on like this and not even be a little tired, what a legend.
My favorite fighter when i was growing up. It sucks so bad that we missed out on 5 years of prime Nick Diaz fights.
Diaz was a beast in Strikeforce ,longest reigning Welterweight champ 👑🔥
Thank you UFC for uploading this fight 🙏🏻
strikeforce on Showtime was the best!! No commercials and awesome fights . one after the next
Diaz brothers are legends in the sport. Love their heart for fighting
Absolutely nuts how a talented , iron chined warrior like Nick missed out on so many amazing fights that would have set him up so strong financially . Watching Nick’s hands go to work, shit talking buddy while ripping the body and reigning on him upstairs was star entertainment
Really wish we saw more of Nick in his prime. Respect due to Nick for never selling out. Too many frauds out there today and his was a real
fighter and authentic person.
And what did he gain beside respect on youtube from you, it is be eaten or eat
To be fair, though, I don't know if any of the fighters from this era made lifetime money kinda payouts.
UFC used them all up.
Only recently have the purses started to get real.
@@hhiippiittyy mos definitely but still would have been worth the exposure to investment opportunities by being an active fighter. Just having some money to make money, then doing autograph signings, running his Nick Diaz Academy and getting paid to show up at a club to get drunk. But honestly knowing Nick he would have needed some good advisors to make smart investments. Nate definitely took the lead on how to market himself earn some big money especially with the two Mcgregor fights and promote his brother. Just imagine if Nick got a chance to fight Mcgregor too.
His fault
The Diaz Brothers are 2 of the best fighters to watch. Never a dull fight
One of his best fights wow!! Crazy. Diaz brothers for life
OMG THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS FIGHT! THIS IS AMAZING
The best 1st round in MMA history. Nick Diaz Army, forever!
The Nick Diaz 🪖 Army
The racist army* fixed it for you.
@@sameerjones4729 shut up
@@sameerjones4729 dumb comment lol no one took the bait 🤦♂️
@@josiahgonzalez942 nice 👍 one
One of my ALL TIME favorite fights in the history if combat sports
Nick Diaz is amazing. Never in a bad fight. Never out of the fight.
Nick was something special. To put this win into perspective: remember how Stipe grappled Ngannou to a win cos Ngannou had crazy power? Well, Nick could've done that too vs Daley but he wanted to show Daley he could beat him on the feet. Crazy.
Good analogy
He combined clinch work it looks like
He did the exact same thing against Robbie lawler when they first fought. Everyone said he was the ground guy and Robbie was the power. Nick ended up KOing him to. Prime Nick was a real BMF not like that fake Masivdal who sucker punches Covington. If Nick had a problem with a fighter, no matter where you were he always made himself seen and what was going to go down.
Daley had a good k.os but he was no monster like Francis , I get what your trying to say tho
I don't think this is the best analogy. Nick never had the kind of wrestling to engage in the kind of fight you're talking about
The greatest round in MMA history.
Legend of the sport
That last bam bam on their feet... they both ROCK each other... Simply amazing ONE Round. Legend stuff
What a TREASURE of a fight this was 💯
Even 10 years later, this is still on a lot of top 10 fights/rounds of all time lists.
Both of these fighters are legends!
All Nick Diaz fights are epic , but there is not enough words to describe this one!
2:18 those body shots...
Nick was a different kind of savage in Strikeforce. Highly recommend if you have UFC fight pass to watch his fights when he was in that organization. Most
of them are classics
Had to revisit this video!!
Im quite new to MMA. For me the journey began only a couple of weeks ago and I've watched hundreds of fights since then.
This is hands down the best fight I've seen so far. Just Insane.
Moreno and figueredo 1 in 2020 was top 3 for sure too
I’ve watched this fight so many times
Once more won’t hurt
Same
Great fight. Buildup and finally one of the best rounds in MMA combat history. A real back and forth with two bad boys of the business at the time. Awesome Job Diaz!!
Legendary! Two brothers from Stockton CA characterized and shaped the MMA world.
this fight never gets old
The Best Real Fighter Ever, period!
Nick Diaz looks skinny he need to go on a bulk
@@sameerjones4729 u do know this was a long time ago?
Great fight, magnified by Nick's taunting.
Legendary.
Fantastic.
Crazy fight man. I remember this fight like it was yesterday.
Incredible fight.
One of the best fights I've ever seen!
One of the GOATs
Un guerrero Nick díaz mi favorito en esos tiempos BAD BOY del MMA un grande
The Goat Of MMA the legend himself
the best 1 round fight of the history 🔥 🔥
Nick Diaz, was amazing in his prime..he was fearless!
Always entertaining see nick fight
What a classic fight !!!
Back when Nick Diaz was still in his prime and was a real force to be reckoned with inside the octagon
One of the most exciting fights period. Ever.
Nick Diaz was more known as a ground specialist going into this fight and he stood and banged with one of the most dangerous strikers at the time. What a legend
His boxing is phenomenal
Legend? Maybe a legend at rigged fights like this one. That black man has the genes of Africa meaning he's one of the strongest you cant convince me this flabby body boy Diaz beat him far and square
@@sameerjones4729 dont be a hater and make up some random bs conspiracy theory 🤣 Diaz beat his ass fair and square
@@sameerjones4729 cry
@T Squirrel nick surprised a lot of people in his first fight against lawler, with his boxing, (regardless of the second fight 17 yrs later).
