Nate Diaz is currently on the final fight of his current UFC contract. Many speculate that the Stockton native will be leaving the promotion after this final bout and won’t be re-signing with the UFC in the future. 

Diaz has been a fan favorite at the promotion ever since his early days and he is carrying the ‘Diaz brothers’ legacy on his back. In an episode of the Joe Rogan Experience, Rogan and legendary fighter BJ Penn discussed the state of his current contract. They both agreed on one condition on which Diaz will stay with the UFC. 

Rogan said, “I think if they give him the right money, I think he’ll stay. I think he’ll stay if he wants to keep fighting. It’s whether or not he wants to keep fighting.” 

Even though the UFC is the most profitable MMA promotion, many other MMA promotions pay fighters much more than what they are offered at the UFC. BJ Penn revealed that he got better pay at the K-1 MMA promotion. But then returned back to the UFC soon after he left for K-1.

Diaz hasn’t fought since last year. According to a tweet he put out, Diaz said that he’s been trying to get a fight soon. In the tweet, Diaz also claimed he’s not interested in fighting McGregor.
