Nate Diaz said he '100% guarantees' he'll fight Conor McGregor again while also naming Jake Paul, Leon Edwards and Jorge Masvidal as potential rematches he would like down the line.
Diaz said Friday that he believes there is no doubt he will fight McGregor one more time. The two big stars fought twice in the UFC in 2016, with Diaz winning once by submission and McGregor winning the second bout via majority decision.
"I 100% guarantee I'm gonna fight Conor McGregor again," Diaz said at a press event to promote his June 1 boxing event withMcGregor has brought up the idea of fighting Diaz at the Sphere in Las Vegas on Mexican Independence weekend, on a card the UFC has planned at the venue. UFC CEO Dana White has since shut that idea down. But Diaz said he would be interested in that bout., whom Diaz lost to in boxing and in MMA, respectively.
Masvidal will be making his pro boxing debut. The event will be distributed by Fanmio and the two fighters are in the middle of a four-city promotional tour, which also includes stops in Los Angeles, Miami and New York. Diaz also shouted out Edwards as the most interesting person in the UFC right now. When Diaz departed the UFC as a free agent in 2022, he noted that he didn't think anything cool was happening in the promotion at that time.
"The coolest thing right now from the UFC is Leon Edwards," Diaz said."That's what I got my sights on. I like that fight right now. I think he's doing great. I think he got better and he's doing better. Good attitude, good fighter. I think he's probably the best thing in the UFC right now."
