Tony Ferguson and Nate Diaz recently clashed in the octagon at UFC 279. Ferguson stepped in as a last-minute replacement for Khamzat Chimaev, who missed weight. Despite the unexpected change, Diaz emerged victorious with a submission. But the rivalry between these two fighters isn’t over yet. Ferguson has called out the Stockton Slugger for a rematch. Nate Diaz has since left the UFC, leaving Tony searching for a new opponent for his next fight. The Stockton native has been inactive, but he’s looking for other opportunities in combat sports. His rival, on the other hand, has had a string of tough losses and is looking to get back on track.

The fight saw Nate Diaz emerge victorious in the clash of stars. What’s more, this was his last fight for the promotion. Diaz after the fight left UFC,  is now a free agent and can join any promotion he desires to. However, by the looks of it Tony Ferguson still has unfinished business with him.
