YouTube star Doctor Mike would be open to fighting Nate Diaz if he defeats the UFC legend's teammate Chris Avila in his professional boxing debut.
The family medicine physician, whose real name is Mike Varshavski, faces MMA veteran Avila on the undercard of Jake Paul vs Anderson Silva on October 29. Avila holds a 8-9 record in the cage and is a longtime training partner of Diaz, who submitted Tony Ferguson in his final fight for the UFC last month. Varshavski already has an exhibition win under his belt having beaten fellow content creator Ian 'IDubbbz' Carter in May, but he looks for his first pro win against Avila.
Diaz is expected to make a boxing move when his exclusivity period ends with the UFC and has been backed to cash in for a big money fight against Jake Paul. Varshavski insisted he is solely focused on his upcoming fight with Avila, but didn't rule out the possibility of facing Diaz if he beats his teammate.
