Jorge Masvidal and Nick Diaz have shown interest in fighting each other. Nick appeared on ESPN Helwani’s Show and appeared angry over Masvidal’s comments after the fight. He looked particularly bothered at Masvidal mentioning about baptizing his younger brother Nate Diaz at UFC 244 octagon interview.

Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz came face to face at UFC 244 for the BMF belt inside Madison Square Garden in one of the biggest PPV events of 2019. Masvidal picked up a TKO victory in the third round after a cut on Diaz’s eye rendered him unable to continue after the doctor’s decision. Nick Diaz hinted at a potential return to the octagon after the 5-year ban was lifted. However, it looks unlikely that the two fighters will collide inside the octagon.

Nick Diaz has not come out with any official statement, and his Instagram feed still feels like a retired fighter enjoying with his friends. In a recent interaction with MMA journalist Ariel Helwani, Masvidal revealed shocking details after conversing with Nick Diaz’s manager.
