Georges St. Pierre made a comment on UFC Primetime that caused a bit of a stir when he said that Nick Diaz was “fake crazy.” During Friday’s Q&A session for UFC 143, GSP was asked about the comment and attempted to clear up exactly what he meant.
What I believe is, he’s a very smart guy. He knows what he’s doing. He would not be able to do what he’s done in his career if he wasn’t smart. I do believe maybe he has some mental issues … I do not believe he is a bad human being. Truth my eyes, because he has been very disrespectful to me and because maybe we’ll fight, he’s disrespectful, but to you guys, I’m sure if you saw him and asked him for an autograph he’d give it to you.
So, basically GSP thinks that Diaz is playing a character. The same as people accuse Chael Sonnen of doing on a regular basis.
Is GSP onto something? Or is this the real Nick Diaz?
