Nate Diaz is teasing a return to MMA, setting his sights on the ‘BMF’ title. Diaz posted on X on Wednesday asserting his claim as the originator of the ‘BMF’ title and his intention to win it.
Let’s not act like I didn’t start a whole division bringing value to all these guys claiming they’re it. I gave opportunity and put notice on the dopest fights. I got unfinished business and I plan on going and taking what’s mine ASAP. First to ever start a division and the dopest one at that.”
Diaz previously lost to Jorge Masvidal for the inaugural ‘BMF’ title at UFC 244.
