Delay of Georges St. Pierre vs. Nick Diaz Bout Adding Fuel to the Fire
Fans have been dying to see UFC welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre fight former Strikeforce 170 pound title holder Nick Diaz, ever since the announcement that they would be fighting in October of last year. You all know the story; Diaz missed a couple of key press conferences to promote the bout and was subsequently replaced by former WEC welterweight king Carlos Condit. St. Pierre then would withdraw from the Condit bout due to a knee injury and Diaz went on to fight BJ Penn in a fight that was elevated into the main event slot at UFC 137.
