The following is from Graciefighter.com:
Nick Diaz awaits word on his next fight. His win over Thomas Denny was a crucial test for him. He needed to prove he could make weight and pass California's stringent anti-marijuana drug policy. Diaz easily made weight and passed the drug test. His recent wins have convinced EliteXC that his next fight should be a rematch with KJ Noons at the October 4th CBS show. However it is still unclear if KJ's camp will take the fight.
Should they refuse then Diaz could be cleared to fight Mach Sakurai in Dream at the end of September. Diaz has wanted to fight Sakurai for the Dream Champioship Belt, but a stumbling block to this fight has been that as of now Dream has still not paid him a cent for the last fight he participated in for their organization almost 3 months ago.
It should be interesting to see what happens next for the Stockton, CA native. Diaz has been adament about wanting an rematch with Noons but Noons and EliteXC have been reluctant to make that fight happen after what occured in Hawaii in June following Noons title defense against Yves Edwards when the Diaz brothers(Nick and Nate) stormed the cage and caused quite the uproar.
It's also interesting to see that DREAM hasn't paid Diaz a dime since his fight and with rumours of DREAM being in serious finanicial trouble it may only be a matter of time before they go under.
