Nick Diaz and Georges St Pierre had a tumultuous history. The history of PED accusations, other cheating – everything from food poisoning to vaseline. But it seems as though the beef is over. Newly inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame St Pierre went to greet Diaz prior to his fight with Robbie Lawler.

Wow. What a moment there seeing Nick and GSP shake hands in the locker room. That gave me chills. Imagine that happening 7 years or so ago?

GSP explained:
“I don’t really have a relationship with Nick I just wish him, truthfully the best of luck. I don’t hold grudges with none of my opponents and I wish him to perform as well as he can be, I mean, I’m really looking forward to watching the fight against Robbie Lawler tonight. “
