    Default Nick Diaz to return, wants Anderson Silva.

    Gracie confirms his man will return and quashes the idea of Silva vs GSP and wants the Spida all for himself...

    Am I the only one who thinks Anderson would murder him?

    I honestly think this would be a good fight & not totally 1 sided.

    Would prefer to see Rashad vs. Silva at MW.

    I can't help but imagine that Silva would tower over Diaz in size?

    Diaz would have a go at him obviously and push silvas cardio. If diaz' chin can stand it then it could be a fun fight to watch.

    I'd wonder if Anderson would just Box with him or actually try and use the clinch and his Thai boxing a bit more.

    I would actually put a sly tenner on Diaz in this fight if it were to happen. Fascinating clash of styles although I could see them canceling each other out and refuse to fully engage and it'd be a five round snoozefest.

    Diaz is 6ft 1" so he's only an inch or two shorter than Silva. He'd need to muscle up a little though. Wonder what that'd do to his boxing?

    Diaz could beat anyone, but Silva would have to be massive favourite to smash him.
