Henry Louis Mencken said: "Love is the triumph of imagination over intelligence". Sometimes love can be misconstrued as delusion, everything makes sense to you in your head but the other party doesn't feel the same way, and you look like a creep. That triumph of the imagination happens in the MMA world as well. After his altercation with the 209 last April at the tail-end of Strikeforce's last CBS televised card, Mayhem Miller has been a one man campaign machine, lobbying for a fight against the king of mean-mugging, Nick Diaz. Sadly, it looks like, Mayhem Miller has given up on fighting Nick Diaz, homie. In light of the news that Diaz would be taking on Cyborg Santos January 29th for the Strikeforce welterweight title, a sapped Jason Miller talked to Ben Fowlkes of MMAFighting about giving up on trying to assemble the fight we all want to see.

"I figured that maybe if I made enough noise about it, it would come to fruition. I knew that one of two things was going to happen. Either I was going to get the fight with Diaz and expose him, show that he's not some damn unstoppable, pitter-pat punching tank, but just some dude who can get beat up. Or, the other option, I was going to expose him for what he is, which is a guy who picks favorable fights constantly."

"We said 181, but they wouldn't take it," said Miller, who added that cutting the extra three pounds would have left him "completely dried out."

"...and that's what they want. They want me to be totally emaciated to make the weight. Meanwhile, he's calling out Anderson Silva to make himself look tough."

"You jumped me on TV," Miller said. "It's a damn storyline that's real. This isn't manufactured drama. This isn't The Ultimate Fighter TV show. It's real. I'm disappointed the fight didn't happen, but whatever. Honestly, I was being selfish. I was picking a fight that I think I can win, and that he thinks he can win. And we both dislike each other, so that always makes for a fantastic fight."

"For now, I'm over it. We watched the massive 'Nick-tuck' and that's that. That's the Nick-tuck. That will be forever etched in there, and if he ever fights up a weight class we're all going to have a good laugh about how he ducked 'Mayhem'. That's the long and short of it and every Gracie Jiu-Jitsu website can paint how they want, but we all watched it in real time. We saw it unfold. I'm not concerned about it any more. I chased him around enough."

Nick-tuck? Stellar use of a UGism applied to a relevant scenario. Mayhem receives ten points on our scale of rawesome, but gets deducted five points for 'Nick-Tucking' on an interview with Layzie The Savage after the real 'altercation' that we all remember. [Source]

I sure wouldn't accept an interview from someone who threatened to sue me.

Plus, you'd never be able to make heads or tails of the interview over the sounds of Layzie's massive vagina queefing.

FINALLY. This whole stupid thing is over. Would've loved to see this fight but at least now we'll likely only hear one last remark from Diaz and it'll be over.

JESUS this was anti-climactic.

1. Mayhem should be the one who's more lenient about weight as Diaz is the champion.

2. As much as I love Nick Diaz, he will lose pretty soon.

3. I wonder to what extent TUF is fabricated.

I'm tired about hearing how Mayhem should be lenient with weight because Diaz is the champ.... THIS ISN'T AT WELTERWEIGHT NOR IS IT FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP.

but diaz is the champ and why should he change his training so he can meet Miller at his weight, then diaz has to drop weight so he can defend the title after??? Fuck the weight they should just do it old school style with no weight restriction

Change his training? Nick Diaz cuts to get to 170, and walks around a little over 185.

He should have thought about everything before he jumped someone on live television. All that goes out the window when you act like a chump and don't step up to the plate when it's one on one.

and how do you cut?.....by training, he walks around at 185 waiting for a fight, and cuts to 170 when hes got fight because he starts training for the fight, its the weight diaz is comfortable fighting at. plus miller is saying they wanted him to drop 3pounds, 3 fucking pounds!!

When someone disrespects a member of your camp and a friend after he's just become the champion, a real chump would've said
"YEAH! GIVE MILLER THE FIGHT!"..

Nick Diaz did what any man should've done, is to punch Miller in the face.
If you think otherwise, you may need hormone replacement therapy like Sonnen.

lolz. Think at this point, Diaz has lost any following and/or credibility. Which is even scarier considering Mayhme now does :)

No weight restriction exhibition match! thats whats needed.

Clearly nick feels comfortable throwing fists at mayhem at the weight hes at now even if he did have an army behind him.

what am I missing? Who has Miller fought that makes him any good? He shouldnt talk trash unless he was waxing the floor with his opponents left and right.

In terms of SF legitimacy, he's fought Souza twice (lost a dec, and got a NC due to an illegal kick on the ground opening up a cut) and he did this to Lawler:

He also holds a win over Tim Kennedy, who people talk about as a 185 contender in SF, and he did a decent job against GSP. And of course, if round 3 of a certain Shields fight had been 3 seconds longer, Miller would already hold the belt.

So in reality, he can't be far from a middleweight title shot. There is bad blood between him and Souza, and he's beaten Lawler, so if Robbie wins that's an obvious fight to make.
