The dude is really exciting to watch, but he looks kinda small for a welterweight. I think that might cause him some problems when he starts to fight top guys. His fight with Diaz should tell us a lot about him.
This. He's aggresive for sure and has definately got skills but I wanna see him tested and Diaz will be a big step up IMO.
I think he'll be in trouble with some of the big wrestlers that WW has to offer but would love to see him against people like Matt Brown, Semtex or Alves.
Hopefully after a succesful run in SF the UFC will sign him. unfortunately I don't see him getting past Diaz so the road to the UFC could be a long one...
He has major holes in his striking defense Mach was landing heavy shots on him which also speaks well of his chin. I think he is going to start getting picked apart by pretty good and above strikers once there is enough tape on him. That punch headkick he won the semi and finals with is going to be scouted in the future he won't be catching many people with it from here on out. Still fun to watch though.
If Diaz fights smart enough and makes it a ground fight, then yes he takes it via sub. But I think he wants to show his Boxing skills again, because he loves them way to much in my opinion... if he does that i can see a TKO or KO victory for Zaromskis.
People are forgetting how amazing Diaz's striking is. Diaz only loses if he's facing a wrestler. Don't get me wrong this guy is awesome to watch, but so is Lawler.
Diaz is a great Boxer no doupt about it, but I always have the feeling that he overplays it in his fights. I dunno but i think he will get caught somebody when he goes up in competition. Hopefully not cause i really enjoy watching him!
His stand up is pretty scary.
But outside of Sakurai, he hasn't faced much top competitors. Diaz is one of the best in the world. Nick has looked so damn good lately too, I just can't see him losing to Marius at this point in his career.
