MMA fans are abuzz with excitement after Nate Diaz expressed his interest in fighting at UFC 300. The former lightweight title challenger, who left the UFC last September after a 15-year run, is open to making a sensational return to the organization for their historic Las Vegas card on April 13.
Diaz's plea for a fight
Diaz took to X to share his thoughts, saying, "UFC 300 would be tight but there’s nobody to fight." This statement immediately caught the attention of UFC fans around the world, with many urging the organization to make it happen.
Response from fellow fighters
Not long after Diaz's plea, fellow fan favorite Dustin Poirier responded with a proposition. The former interim lightweight champ, who was originally scheduled to fight Diaz at UFC 230 in November 2018, wrote, "5 rnds." Former three-time Bellator lightweight champ Michael Chandler also chimed in, expressing his interest in fighting Diaz.
Diaz's relationship with the UFC
Unlike many fighters who leave on bad terms, Diaz left the UFC on good terms with the brass. UFC president Dana White has always been open to Diaz's return, stating, "We feel the same way about Nate. We always have. This will always be Nate’s house."
