It has been reported that UFC President, Dana White, has offered a fight that one would assume that Diaz could not refuse, but he did. Back at UFC 143 in February 2012, the UFC decided to put together a Welterweight fight for the Interim UFC Welterweight Championship in Georges St-Pierre's absence due to injury.
Nick Diaz and Carlos Condit were placed in opposite sides of the Octagon to fight for this title. Carlos Condit easily out-scored Diaz in a five round MMA fight that was simply a kick boxing fight inside of a cage. There was not a moment that one of them was truly in danger of the other, but it was inarguably a win for Condit. Full fight link here courtesy of Carlos Condit's YouTube Channel. If you watched the fight already then you know that this was one of Diaz's first retirements after he felt that he won the fight. Any man in their right mind would want to avenge a loss that they felt that they had won, but not Nick Diaz folks. Diaz was offered a rematch against Condit at UFC 171, but Nick Diaz declined to take the fight.
I think that if this fight were to occur a second time in their current states that it would be another Condit victory, but with a more aggressive Condit than before. What are your thoughts on the rematch if it were to occur?
