Dana White Plans To Make Nate Diaz An Offer

January 25, 2018 | Posted by Joseph Lee

As we previously reported, Nate Diaz recently suggested that he wanted a fight in May or June. This resulted in fellow lightweights Eddie Alvarez and Kevin Lee calling him out. UFC President Dana White told TMZ that if Diaz really wants to fight, he’ll make him an offer.

He said: “I’ll tell ya what. I’ll call him today and make him an offer. I will make Nate Diaz an offer to fight today. I gotta look at the rankings and see where everybody is.

He added that he’s not ruling out a third fight with Conor McGregor but it’s not the priority for the latter. He added: “I think people would rather see Conor come back and either fight Tony [Ferguson] or Khabib [Nurmagomedov] — whoever wins — and the Nate Diaz fight isn’t going anywhere. We can do that thing any time.

Finally, he said a fight with Tyron Woodley isn’t likely as he has other plans for Woodley.
