Nick Diaz is the Paul Williams of MMA

[Liquidrob]

High work rate, 'punches in bunches', odd angles, pressure fighter, lanky, crazy reach, etc...this type of work rate isnt seen in MMA boxing

I wish he'd clean up his act so he could get back in the UFC.

[clovett]

He is getting more where he is now

[Steel Mamba]

He is getting more where he is now

More what? Not competition.

[Liquidrob]

More what? Not competition.

Money

Is that only because the UFC doesn't want him back though? Diaz is their top WW/MW and there's no way he's making more than Silva or GSP, the UFC's top.

It sucks though b/c Strikeforce does not have a list of quality welterweights.

[Liquidrob]

There WW division is not great, but it is coming up

Diaz just beat the DREAM WW champ which was big fight, Hieron is a solid fighter, than you have the up and comers like Woodley, Galvao, Tarec, also Paul Bradley should be at 170 he just fought Rockkhold at 185 for an opportunity, throw in Amossou if he drops to 170 like he should you have a solid WW division

I wonder if Rockhold can make 170, would be a great addition to WW, guy is very good

Diaz just received 100k for his fight, win or lose

He makes more than Fitch, Alves and most of the WW division besides a couple guys

[Steel Mamba]

Diaz is a bigger draw than Alves and Fitch. Bisping gets paid more than Diaz.

[EmpireWF]

I don't share your same optimism.

The fight with Zaromskis was a great match-up, no doubt. Hieron is a free-agent now and by most accounts, Strikeforce is in no rush to get him a new deal and vice versa.

Woodley is a great prospect, as is Galvao. Everyone else is just there.

They need more talent (no shock).

I'd say their lightweight & middleweight divisions are their strongest by far.
