Nick Diaz finally returned to his natural weight class of 170 pounds on Saturday night at Strikeforce Miami, and he put on a show. Diaz easily dominated Dream welterweight champion Marius Zaromskis, winning the Strikeforce welterweight belt and showing that he’s one of the best in the world at his weight class.

In fact, I think he’s the one welterweight in all of MMA who would give Georges St. Pierre a real run for his money. Unfortunately, as long as Diaz is in Strikeforce and GSP is in the UFC, we won’t get to see that match-up. But as you’ll see in my rankings of the top 10 welterweights below, Diaz is in elite territory.
