More than six years after his last fight, Nick Diaz is set to return to the UFC.
Dana White said Saturday he was planning to speak with Diaz about a return following his post-UFC 261 press conference.
“Nick wants to fight,” White said. “… Sure, (we’ll give him one). … We’ll see how this goes. He’s waiting for me in the back right now. I’m going to go talk to him.”
