One of the biggest fights of UFC 266 is the rematch 17 years in the making between Nick Diaz and Robbie Lawler. Diaz has not competed since 2015 and is making his long-awaited return in the five-round clash against ‘Ruthless’.
In the first fight, it was Diaz who came out on top, knocking Lawler unconscious at UFC 47. But since then, Lawler has won the UFC welterweight title and put on some of the all-time great performances inside the UFC octagon. However, he has struggled as of late and is currently riding a four-fight losing streak.
It’s a hard fight to pick, especially with the added factor of Nick Diaz’s extended layoff from the sport. However, Michael Bisping believes it will be the Stockton native whose hand is raised at the end of the fight.
Not only that, but he believes history will repeat itself and Diaz will get a knockout stoppage. In a video uploaded to his YouTube channel, ‘The Count’ made the following prediction:

Such is the nature of MMA that any fight can play out in a multitude of ways. But Michael Bisping only sees Lawler vs. Diaz 2 going in one direction.
