JAKARTA - The chances of the duel of Nate Diaz versus Khamzat Chimaev in the octagon are getting bigger. UFC president Dana White said he was willing to talk to "El Diablo" - Diaz's nickname.
Khamzat's strong performance in his last fight against Jingliang Li, won in the first round at UFC 267, followed by the Russian boxer's challenge to Diaz.
Khamzat told the Stockton, California native: "Let's see who the real gangsters are."
Now, White was asked how likely the fight was between "Borz" - Khamzat's nickname - and Diaz.
"100 per cent, we'll talk about it with Nate," the UFC president told TMZ Sports.
Diaz is still one of the best fighters in MMA right now, despite losing his last two fights against Leon Edwards and Jorge Masvidal.
As for White, also noted the effectiveness of Khamzat in his UFC career.
"This guy is different from the rest. When you think about it, he's got more UFC wins than getting hit in the octagon. Crazy!", added the MMA president.
