Fight Archives: Nick Diaz pieces up and retires Frank Shamrock

Underneath the two title fights at Saturday’s UFC 266 is the people’s main event. Nick Diaz will return from a six-year absence to take on Robbie Lawler in a rematch that takes place 17 years later.

It’s always a spectacle whenever a Diaz brother fights, and you can count on the army to show up. Just like how they did when Nick fought the great Frank Shamrock when they headlined their Strikeforce event in 2009.

Shamrock entered the contest at the ripe age of 37, but it was evident that he still had a lot of fight in him.
