| After UFC 137 |
The weigh-ins was heated as they butted their heads and needed seperation, it continued from where it stayed before the first round! The staredown before the fight starts was nothing different from weigh-ins. In the first round Penn took Diaz down almost taking his back. Afer some rolling on the mat Diaz escaped from the position and got back to his feet. In the second round everything changed. Diaz was the aggressor and pushed the phase. He pressed him to the fence with a combination of punches. B.J. wasn't able to run away from punches and Diaz unloaded his best shots over him. B.J. Penn has a damn good chin and survived that round with a badly beaten face. His left eye was almost closed. Penn seemed energetic healed up in the third round. Diaz was more aggressive still and continued to punish him with beautiful hooks and jabs. The fight resulted a (29-28, 29-27, 29-28) win for Diaz over Penn.
Diaz in the post fight interview called GSP out.
Before he receives the mic from Rogan he screamed “Where you at Georges? Where you at mother f***
While speaking to Rogan he stated:
“I don’t think Georges is hurt, I think he’s scared. I think he’s scared to fight everybody right now. Where you at Georges?”
GSP was also watching the event in Mandalay Bay. The cameras concentrated on him. He mocked Diaz' calling with him showing his hands shaking.
Diaz completed his interview connecting his words for Penn.
“B.J.’s the man, I always loved watching him fight.”
When the reviewing turn comes to Penn everyone including Rogan was shocked with his words. He said :
“Hats off to Nick Diaz, he’s the man. Joe, this is probably the last time you’re ever going to see me in here. I want to perform at the top level. That’s it.
I’ve got a daughter, another daughter on the way, I don’t want to go home looking like this. I’m done."
