In September, I said I did not want to see Nick Diaz fight again in 2021 — or ever. One reason I gave for this opinion was the interview Diaz gave with Ariel Helwani in November 2019. I thought Diaz, who has a history of rambling and disjointed interviews, was not himself during the lengthy talk with the ESPN reporter. I know there were many opinions on that interview, but what I saw was a fighter who did not appear — in any way — ready to compete inside the octagon. In a surprising development, UFC president Dana White and I agree on what we would like to (not) see from Diaz.
Editorial: Dana White needs to get Nick Diaz a fight or release him
