Nate Diaz has been going back and forth online with two other superstars, Dustin Poirier and Conor McGregor. Nate has called out Dustin Poirier multiple times on Twitter asking him to meet him in a middleweight matchup. Dustin agreed to fight Diaz at any weight. This matchup is long due and might happen any time. The only thing that stops this fight from happening is a title bout that calls for Poirier. The Louisiana fighter is the number one ranked lightweight and is in line to fight the champion, Charles Oliveira.

Another fighter that has been wanting to fight the superstar is Gilbert Burns who recently won a fight against top-ranked Stephen Thompson. Burns has called out Nate multiple times and hasn’t received any response. Jorge Masvidal is another fighter that is sitting out a KO loss against Kamaru Usman in a welterweight title bout.
