What's up guys so this video will be giving my thoughts on Nick Diaz and the Cesar Gracie camp asking the UFC for a fight against Anderson Silva. In a recent interview Dana White said, "This week we had a great talk and he made it clear to me that he is ready to get back to the cage. Nick Diaz will return."

And Cesar Gracie also said, "As far as future opponents, Nick has stated that he would like to take fights 'that matter,'" Gracie added. "Since GSP will be fighting [Carlos] Condit, he has to look elsewhere. He will respectfully ask for a fight with Anderson Silva, a fighter he respects and would like to challenge.

"Silva's camp has been speaking of a fight with GSP, possibly even at a catchweight. Nick will take that fight in a minute, but has told me that should Silva decide not to drop at all, he will move up to 185lbs to face the champ."

I think this is an amazing match up and I think Dana White and Zuffa (The UFC) should make it happen. I think there really isn't anything for Diaz at welterweight right now and anderson silva likewise has noting going at 185 so why not let nick diaz step in to face anderson for the title. He is a fantastic opponent and this would make for an amazing fight. Nick Diaz has some amazing pressure boxing and I think he would bring a unique test for the spider. Nick Diaz vs Anderson Silva make it happen ufc. .
