Nick Diaz had a message for all the fighters who criticized him. The UFC legend has not fought in over three years. His last fight came against Robbie Lawler in what was a straight-up brawl. After all this time, he looked to return to the octagon against Vicente Luque at UFC Abu Dhabi.
However, the UFC had to call off the fight due to travel issues. Diaz is still looking to fight Luque though, but the date for the fight has not been finalized yet.
The elder Diaz brother is still training for his fight, looking to stay fit, awaiting a call that could come in anytime. In the meantime, ‘Diablo’ was keeping tabs on all the people who had things to say about him during his time away from the ring.
“Don’t for a second think I forgot about all you little fighters who had a lot of shit to say about me…I’m going to hunt all you p*****s down one at a time after I’m done with this guy.”
