Diaz mentioned about McGregor trilogy in his post-fight press conference and the Octagon interview. Also, he shut down a boxing contest against the self-proclaimed Face of the Fight Game.

While both fighters have shown interest in a trilogy, it would be an interesting ride to the mega-event considering Diaz’s situation with the promotion.

Will Nate Diaz return to UFC for a trilogy bout?

The Irish star is on the verge of a return. However, Diaz & McGregor III does not seem the next bout for ‘The Notorious‘.

Diaz shared his ‘love’ for the UFC in the post-fight interview and kept the doors open for a UFC return.

Further, considering the prior two events between these two athletes sold almost 3 million PPVs for the promotion and made a ton of money for these two fighters. Diaz might show up to the premier MMA organization for a lucrative trilogy contest after his run in other sports, as he declared.
