UFC 158: GSP defeats Diaz
The UFC has came back to Montreal, Canada for UFC 158. It wasn't the worst beating ever seen in the octagon, but UFC
welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre thoroughly dominated challenger
Nick Diaz en route to a clearcut unanimous-decision win.
After an epic pre-fight build up that included much bad blood, Diaz raised St-Pierre's hand in a nice show of class. St-Pierre returned the favor shortly after, but the winner was evident, and the champion was awarded a clean sweep on the judges' cards, 50-45 across the board.
And despite the pre-fight trash-talk that colored the matchup, St-Pierre said he harbored no ill will toward the challenger.
"He did a great job promoting the fight," St-Pierre said. "Nick Diaz is a good guy. ... I never took it personal." With the victory, St-Pierre (24-2 MMA, 18-2 UFC) ties UFC Hall of Famer Matt Hughes with the most octagon wins in the promotion's history with 18. Meanwhile, a dejected Diaz (26-9 MMA, 7-6 UFC), who returned from a 13-month drug suspension following a second failed test due to marijuana, hinted he may be done with MMA.
"I think I'm going to have to just kind of figure out if I want to keep doing this," Diaz said. "To be honest, I don't think I've really got it anymore."

I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is required to get setup?
ReplyDeleteI'm assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
I'm not very internet savvy so I'm not 100% sure. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Appreciate it
