Amid calls for a return to the UFC for another title challenge at his former welterweight home, Nate Diaz’s head coach, Cesar Gracie has warned promotional brass that it will take a considerable payday to lure the Stockton veteran back.
Diaz, a former lightweight title challenger under the UFC banner at victor of The Ultimate Fighter, made his return to combat sports over the course of last weekend in Anaheim, taking on fellow Octagon alum, Jorge Masvidal.
Avenging his 2019 doctor’s stoppage TKO loss in the pair’s inaugural symbolic BMF title fight, Diaz edged out the Miami native in the pair’s professional boxing rematch, turning in a majority decision win over the course of 10 rounds.
