Title should read: Diaz willing to get paid for a top event despite not meriting it...he's just looking for the payday, at least I HOPE he isn't so braindead that he actually thinks he'd win....he is in line for a fight against a gatekeeper for chump change on the undercard/prelims...not a title shot against the p4p best fighter of all time on the planet for main event pay....

Look at Diaz...like it would be something that anyone would care about...especially Silva.

What a joke these brothers are...if Silva's going to fight a welterweight, over all the middleweights that actually are more deserving of a shot...it certainly would not be Diaz.

Pretty full of himself for a guy that looked like a chump in his last fight, then cried because he lost...which reminds me, I though Diaz quit the UFC??

Why would Silva want to fight this loser? It wouldn't be a money-making fight, Diaz is far from a challenging opponent.

Truth is...Diaz isn't even one of the top welterweights...just a buffoon.

Until the UFC allows time shifting on it's pay per views, I doubt I'll pay $70 for another one again.

My old PVR allowed me to at least record and view later in the evening.

But apparently they don't allow that anymore with my new PVR.

For $70 I should at least be able to watch it later in the evening rather than LIVE.
