UFC 158: Has Nick Diaz gotten into the head of the Champ?
It’s fight night and the UFC 158 main event between UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre and Nick Diaz is just hours away. Despite coming off a loss to Carlos Condit for the interim welterweight title and then serving a year-long suspension, Diaz is still fighting for the title tonight.
Diaz is standing across from the champ tonight because that’s what Georges St-Pierre wanted and wanted badly. The champ asked for the fight before he was injured after Diaz called him out and since that moment you can argue that the challenger has been inside the head of St-Pierre. We’ve seen GSP frustrated and much more verbal leading up to this fight all because of fighter from the 209.
So, has Nick Diaz actually gotten into the head of Georges St-Pierre?
Diaz has gotten into the head of GSP but how much it will play into the fight itself is going to be up to the champ. Can he control or channel that emotion…
