Strikeforce: Diaz vs. Daley Fight Card



Main Card:

Strikeforce Welterweight Championship:
Nick Diaz vs. Paul Daley via TKO (Strikes) Round 1 (4:57)

- As advertised both fighters came out for a stand-up battle and Diaz was hurting Daley early until Daley put Diaz down but Diaz recovered and after another exchange Diaz floors Daley and finishes him with GNP.



Strikeforce Lightweight Championship:
Gilbert Melendez vs. Tatsuya Kawajiri via TKO (Strikes) Round 1 (3:14)

- Melendez came out on fire hitting Kawajiri with just about everything punishing the Japanese import and finishing the fight with elbows and GNP.



Gegard Mousasi vs. Keith Jardine - Majority Draw (29-27 M, 28-28 Draw, 28-28 Draw)

- Jardine is bleeding after round 1 and Mousasi got a point deducted for an illegal upkick but he still won the round. Mousasi pounded Jardine with strikes in Round 2 and Jardine is a bloody mess. Jardine is one tough son of a bitch but Mousasi beat him down again during the final frame.



Shinya Aoki vs. Lyle Beerbohm via Submission (RNC-Neck Crank) Round 1 (1:33)

- Pretty simple really, Aoki took Beerbohm down, got his back and submitted him.

DIAZ WILL KEEP HIS TITLE WHEN HE TAKES DALEY DOWN AND FINISHES HIM. DIAZ IS A SMART FIGHTER.

Diaz is cocky but once he gets hit by Semtex, he will take him down and then it's game over for Daley.
