Georges St-Pierre: ‘Very, very, very underrated’ Nick Diaz can still be champion

Nick Diaz is currently planning a return to mixed martial arts competition after five years away from the sport.

The 37-year-old hasn’t won since a 2011 decision over B.J. Penn, so naturally, figures such as Dana White doesn’t have “any expectations” for his return. His former rival though, remains optimistic. According to Georges St-Pierre, if the “very underrated” Diaz feels as sharp as he was before, he should return as he still has a shot at being world champion.

“I wish him the best, I love to see him fight,” St. Pierre told ESPN.
