Nate Diaz says he’s ready to return to the octagon, but there are some caveats involved.
Diaz hasn’t competed since his doctor’s stoppage TKO loss to Jorge Masvidal in the main event of UFC 244 in November 2019. One of the most popular fighters in the UFC has two opponents in mind for his return to action, which would include Dustin Poirier in the 1-A position.
Poirier is coming off of a second-round knockout win over Diaz’s longtime rival Conor McGregor in the main event of this past month’s UFC 257 event.
