Read an article on Sherdog about how Nate Diaz was saved by Manny's injury. Seriously, have they not seen Nate fight before? Nate didn't look great against Corey Hill in the first round but he put it together and got the sub.
How can you count a guy out in this sport after 1 round. Nate wasn't cut or beat down or anything, he continued to go for subs, I thought Manny looked gassed going into rnd 2. I think Manny was the fortunate one in this fight, I really do think Nate would have won this fight had it continued.
Someone, anyone, please check to see if Sherdog has a MMA crystal ball. To make comments like that is pure.... well amateur!
The article states "Nate Diaz, in my opinion, lucked out in his win over Manvel Gamburyan (Pictures) Saturday night. He was getting dominated from the start and it appeared as though he had no answers for the bullish Armenian. "
Sounds like the writer was convinced of a Manny victory to me.
Guys the fight wasn't over, it doesn't matter who was dominating. Nate won the fight because he stuffed a takedown and injured Manny. Shit happens, get over it. Maybe somewhere down the line these guys will fight again. TTT for TUF Nate Diaz.
Corey Hill tossed Nate around for the first round too and we all know what happened. If anyone understands that the fight isn't over until the final bell then it's us MMA fans. Here's just a few...
Sell/Scott
Ko's/Fickett
Sell/Baroni
Some idiot thought the 1st round of Nate/Manny was a 10-8 round, can you believe that. Hey, when you have subs like Nate can pull off or heavy hands like a big striker then the fight is never in the bag.
Nate was Manny's biotch until he injured himself. Close, my ass. Diaz nuthuggers gotta be the gayest, man. Do you people dream about finding yourself in a Diaz sandwich or what? 1st round was close? Bwwwwahhhhhhhhh
