Shamrock vs Diaz hard to call

Both Frank Shamrock and Nick Diaz are quite evenly matched. Striking wise they both are good, BJJ-wise excellent, cardio is not a problem for either competitor and they both have extremely strong wills to win. The reach could help out Diaz in this bout, but shouldn't phase Shamrock much.

This fight is a tough one to call but Shamrock often finds ways to win in his battles. It's rare to ever see Shamrock phased or hurt in a fight, aside from his recent loss to Cung Le, who battered Shamrock with explosive kicks. Despite the loss, there was a time in that fight where Shamrock was turning up a notch and coming close to putting Cung Le in some big trouble on the feet.

I can't wait to see Diaz versus Shamrock. Both competitors have solid chins and love to throw leather freely and with bad intentions. Should be a classic fight.
