Current Strikeforce Odds - On April 9, 2011, live from the Valley View Casino Center in San Diego, California, Strikeforce Welterweight champion Nick Diaz (24-7-0) will put his title on the line against skilled striker and fellow UFC alum Paul “Semtex” Daley (27-9-2). Daley has been on a tear since being cut from the UFC after throwing a punch at Josh Koscheck after losing a lopsided unanimous decision, but Diaz’s unique blend of unorthodox striking and world-class jiu jitsu have netted him a nine fight win streak and the Strikeforce crown, so Daley is going to need a stellar performance if he wants to capture the gold. Diaz has the clear edge on the ground, but he has proven willing to stand and trade shots with anyone, and against Daley that could spell trouble. Daley is going to need to fight a smart fight and Diaz is going to have to mix up his striking and grappling well, so this one should be quite exciting.
