LAS VEGAS – Strikeforce welterweight champion and UFC veteran Nick Diaz is not a fighter you’ll hear UFC president Dana White bash. For now, anyway.
White told UFC fans today that he’s still interested in Diaz, the older brother of current UFC lightweight Nate Diaz, just hours before the brash welterweight headlines DREAM.14 in Japan against Hayato Sakurai.
“I like Nick Diaz, and I’ve talked to Nick Diaz many times about coming back to the UFC,” White said during a keynote speech at UFC Fan Expo 2010 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas.
