If you believe Nate Diaz, this weekend probably marks the final UFC fight for the anti-legend. It’s the last fight on his contract, and he’s openly keen to test the free-agent waters, exploring everything from a boxing match with Jake Paul to starting his own promotion.
But first comes that farewell fight, and the UFC did him no favors in this department (perhaps because of the at-times acrimonious relationship between the two). In a rare five-round, non-title pay-per-view main event, Diaz faces undefeated Russian destroyer Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 279 in Las Vegas.
