ANAHEIM, Calif. – After months of build, Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal will have their final pre-fight press conference Wednesday ahead of their boxing match this weekend.
Diaz and Masvidal previously fought under the UFC banner at UFC 244 in November 2019. Masvidal earned a doctor’s stoppage TKO after the third round to claim the inaugural BMF belt, and a potential rematch has been discussed ever since.
It will finally happen Saturday, but in the confines of a boxing ring. The pair have been promoting the fight for weeks now, and have had four previous press conferences together – one of which ended in a wild brawl between teams.
The fifth presser goes down at the JW Marriott hotel in Anaheim starting at 5 p.m. ET/2 p.m. PT, and MMA Junkie will have a live stream of the festivities above.
Diaz vs. Masvidal will be contested at 175 pounds and is scheduled for 10, two-minute rounds. The event takes place at Honda Center and airs on Fanmio, DAZN PPV and UFC Fight Pass.
