Evangelista Cyborg vs. Nick Diaz For The Welterweight Strikeforce Title On Jan 29. Will It Be Chute Boxe Thai Boxing vs. Boxing War?

Evangelista Cyborg who trains at Chute Boxe in Brazil & Arena MMA in San Diego is training for his welterweight title fight with Nick Diaz (Gracie Jiu Jitsu) this Saturday night. Your predictions? How interested are you in this fight with a 10 rating being absolutely interested?  If Evangelista, wins, him and his wife Cris "Cyborg" Santos would be the first spouses to hold championship belts in mixed martial arts.




Would it be a striking battle of Muay Thai Kickboxing Chute Boxe style vs Boxing with an intense ground battle? Diaz did not use many leg strikes during his rematch with KJ Noons but had successful boxing strikes.  Noons also trained at Arena MMA for his rematch so a win would give the staff at Arena MMA some great joy.
