Recently Nate Diaz took to Instagram about his frustrations with the UFC fighter's with this statement :
Sick of sitting around waiting for you fuckers to do shit there's no excitement in this fight shit step your games up I'll see u around may,June. Sincerely The Real Champ
The Response...
This stirred up quite the reaction among the lightweight division with fighters already calling out the Stockton native. Two of those fighters being Eddie Alvarez and Kevin Lee.
Alvarez was the first to respond :
Kevin Lee followed with...
Now the question is, who will Nate Diaz fight next?
Diaz's UFC return is highly anticipated among UFC fans around the world since his last two thrilling fights with foe Conor McGregor back in 2016. Could he be looking to get the McGregor fight again or will he be happy to fight another lightweight for a reduced payday.
Both fights between Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz was labeled as being two of the biggest UFC fights in history and it lived up to all the hype.
Whilst a trilogy with Conor McGregor would be great I don't think that it is possible with Conor poised to fight the winner of Khabib Nurmagomedov vs Tony Ferguson which takes place on April 7th 2018.
With the top three lightweights being tied up it only makes sense for either Eddie Alvarez or Kevin Lee to get the fight according to the current rankings. Both fights would generate a lot of interest among the UFC community.
Another lightweight on the rise is Dustin Poirier, I am sure he would love to test himself against Nate Diaz and a win would elevate his status for sure earn him a shot at the title.
Dustin Poirier has been on an impressive run as of late and coming of a dominant win over the previous lightweight champion of the world AnthonyPettis would come into this fight pretty confident.
All that we currently know is that Nate Diaz is returning to the octagon and that is enough to get any UFC fan excited.
