UFC Eyeing Georges St-Pierre vs. Nate Diaz For UFC 227

May 9, 2018 | Posted by Joseph Lee

In an interview with UFC Unfiltered (via Wrestling Inc), Dana White suggested that a fight between Georges St-Pierre and Nate Diaz could happen at UFC 227 this August in Los Angeles. The event will happen at the Staples Center and airs on PPV.

He said: “It is true, and (St-Pierre and Diaz) would fight at 155 pounds. There are rumors that we were doing (Alexander) Gustafsson versus (Luke) Rockhold. That is true, but that is not for the interim title. That’s false. It might be L.A. I’m targeting L.A. In my perfect world, if everything goes perfect, which nothing goes (expletive) perfect in this world: (T.J.) Dillashaw versus (Cody) Garbrandt, GSP versus Diaz would be the co-main, Gustafsson versus Rockhold, and Derek Brunson versus Antonio Carlos Junior.
