Video: Is a Nate Diaz return to UFC still interesting?
An old friend of the UFC would like to return to the octagon as Nate Diaz said last week he wants to “go back and get a UFC title.”
Diaz, 39, who joined the UFC in 2007 after appearing on “The Ultimate Fighter 5,” fought out his contract and left the promotion following a September 2022 win over Tony Ferguson at UFC 279. Since then, Diaz has competed in two boxing matches, losing to Jake Paul in 2023 and defeating fellow former UFC star Jorge Masvidal in 2024. He has not competed in a mixed martial arts fight.
