Paul Daly continued his tirade on local boy Nick Diaz. The Stockton, CA native will be putting his title on the line in the main even Saturday April 9th in sunny San Diego. He was recently interviewed by MMA HQ and went on record making predictions about the fight and his personal opinion on the Strikeforce 'heel' persona that Diaz has take on over the years due to his no love loss attitude and inside cage antics, with his lowest point being the Nashville Strikeforce brawl involving Jason Miller, Jake Shields, and Gilbert Melendez.
Here are some quotes from the interview, the full one can be read here
Do you honestly think that Nick Diaz will stand up with you?
There’s no way he’ll stand up with me. He might think he wants to but his coaches won’t allow it; Cesar Gracie’s a great coach and he won’t want him trading punches.
Do you ever want to fight back in the UFC or do you just want to fight?
I just want to fight against decent competition and be able to live the life of a fighter and pay my bills. The thing is there’s a lot of great fighters in different organisations and the UFC doesn’t have such a stranglehold on all the best talent.
It’s great for fighters who want to fight often against good guys and maybe don’t want to fight in the UFC.
