Canelo Alvarez refuses to rule out boxing fight with former UFC star Nate Diaz

Canelo Alvarez has refused to rule out a boxing fight with former UFC star Nate Diaz.

Diaz has had a hugely successful career in the UFC but has now moved on from the promotion after choking out Tony Ferguson in his final fight last September. The Stockton native is now eyeing a number of lucrative boxing fights and he has been linked with some of the sport's biggest names including Alvarez and rising star Jake Paul.

Last week boxing promoter Eddie Hearn revealed he had held talks with the UFC veteran over signing him to Matchroom Boxing, with a view to a future showdown against undisputed champion Alvarez. And in trademark style, the Mexican has insisted it is not in his current plans but could open up later down the line in his career.
