This is a really good fight but people need to calm down a little. You're getting sucked in to manufactured hype way too much.
If Diaz and Masvidal fought each other a few years ago nobody would have really blinked and there's nothing particularly different about the circumstances.
Now, like then, there's no belt on the line, and while both are great fighters, neither of these guys is likely to ever be serious championship material. And the reason people are so excited for this fight is in fact the same reason neither guy will ever be champion.
