Nick Diaz Eyes 170 for UFC Return, Talks Beating Islam Makhachev and Khamzat Chimaev

After a year at Baja Rehab in Mexico, Diaz said he wants a UFC return at welterweight: “I’d like to fight at 170…I think I could beat both of them. I could lose too.” Diaz hasn’t won since 2011 and last fought in 2021. He’s 42, while Makhachev and Chimaev are elite grapplers in their primes, making any title talk a huge leap.
