Nick Diaz’s coach Cesar Gracie took to twitter today to proclaim the much-anticipated fight between UFC welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre and Gracie protege Nick Diaz is happening.
@ufc@DiazBrothers209 Nick Diaz vs GSP is on!
While Dana White hinted earlier that he was looking at a March 16th date in GSP’s hometown of Montreal for the proposed encounter, as of yet nothing has been confirmed by the UFC office. GSP and Diaz were set to clash earlier this year before Diaz was pulled from the fight for refusing to adhere to UFC media obligations.
