‘I got sh-t to do’ - Nate Diaz once again asks for UFC release

Request submitted, but will it be granted?

UFC star Nate Diaz hasn’t fought in nine months and doesn’t appear to have anything on the horizon with just one fight remaining on his contract. The former lightweight title challenger went to Twitter to ask for his release from the promotion.

“I would like to request to be released from the UFC,” Diaz said. “I apologize for asking online but you don’t give me a fight asap I got sh-t to do.”

Diaz also tagged the UFC, Dana White, and some guy named Hunter but definitely not Chief Business Officer Hunter Campbell.
