UFC veteran Nick Diaz hints at Bellator move

Get the Full StoryAfter Dana White s confirmation that the Jorge Masvidal fight is on, Nick Diaz is now teasing a move to Bellator. Most of the talks surrounding Nick Diaz these days have been about his UFC return. Last month, reports floated around about him breaking his three-year absence to face Jorge Masvidal at UFC 235 in March.

The UFC made no official announcement until Dana White himself confirmed it during the UFC 231 post-fight presser in Toronto on early Sunday morning.

As far as I know, sitting right here right now, that fight s on, White told members of the media. As far as I know, that fight is on.

I ve been here since Tuesday. Unless something happened since Tuesday, which is very possible, it s on.

But as we all know, the Diaz brothers march to their own beat. In one of his Instagram stories that was captured by Twitter user RC Woodley, Nick hinted at a possible move to Bellator.
