Nate Diaz says he wants to fight UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley. The champ is game, and said the UFC had offered Diaz the fight. Woodley even said if he had to bet his house on who he fights next, it would be Diaz.
However, UFC president Dana White is not impressed.
He’s homeless. He’s full of s***, said White said during an appearance on UFC Tonight, as transcribed by Simon Samano for MMAjunkie. That fight was never made. You couldn’t be more wrong. He couldn’t be more full of s***. It’s absolutely not true. It’s so not true, that our lawyer actually hit him up today, hit his manager up and said he needs to stop saying these kind of things, because it’s absolutely not true.
I wouldn’t bet a nickel on it, let alone [Woodley]’s house. It’s not true, White said. It’s completely not true, and we’re looking at dos Anjos. Dos Anjos is the fight we’re looking at for Woodley. That’s the fight that’s a fair fight. He just won a great fight against Robbie Lawler; he looked good. And what I love about that fight is I think dos Anjos will bring it. He will come after Tyron Woodley, and it will be a great fight. That’s the fight that’s going to happen.
Woodley does not turn the other cheek, and replied quickly via the social network.
Cause Dana has never told a lie in his life🤔. Maybe we should ask @NateDiaz209 if they offered me him. https://t.co/jdPpiPjjQl
