Vicente Luque: Kamaru Usman stole Jorge Masvidal fight from me, but I’d like Nate Diaz

Vicente Luque took out a former UFC champion on Saturday night, and he’s staying on the hunt for big names.

Following his first-round submission victory over Tyron Woodley at UFC 260, Luque closed out his post-fight interview by calling out Nate Diaz. He elaborated on the callout at the evening’s post-event press conference, explaining that his first choice was actually Jorge Masvidal, but Masvidal is currently booked to fight Kamaru Usman for the welterweight title at UFC 261 on April 24.

“The fight I really wanted, Kamaru took it,” Luque said.
