UFC 111 prelim recap: Diaz overwhelms Markham; Almeida stops Brown

NEWARK, N.J. – Scrappy UFC brawler Nate Diaz has always been an
“anybody, anywhere, anytime” kind of fighter.

After his performance on the preliminary card of Saturday night’s UFC
111 event at the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J., Diaz can now add
“any weight class” to his take-on-all-comers attitude.

Diaz made the leap from the 155-pound division all the way up to
middleweight, albeit on a slight technicality, and the Stockton, Calif.,
native delivered one of the most impressive performances of his career.
