Jay Hieron has been hunting Nick Diaz. Unfortunately Diaz's issue with marijuana and state commissions screwed Hieron out of the opportunity to shoot for the Strikeforce welterweight belt during 2009. So when Hieron was offered a shot to fight DREAM 170 champ Marius Zaromskis, he had to wrestle with the consequences of a loss. Hieron and his manager Ken Pavia, decided Zaromskis wasn't a big enough name in the U.S. to risk a fight against the emerging Lithuanian star. Joe Riggs is a better name in the states and a win over the veteran puts Hieron in line for a Diaz fight in Strikeforce or an exit to the UFC. Watch Hieron when he talks about his contract. He suggests that he's unaware of whether he has one or two fights left on the deal.
