Ahead of the final bout on his UFC contract,Nate Diaz has announced a new venture tied to the fight game.
Diaz, one of the most popular names in MMA, is set to launch his own combat sports promotion, Real Fight Inc., which plans to host MMA, boxing and jiu-jitsu events. A Diaz representative told MMA Junkie the process has began to receive licensure to promote in the state of California, where the Stockton native currently resides.
Diaz’s involvement with Real Fight Inc. isn’t expected to limit the 37-year-old from active competition. It’s unclear how involved he will be in the day-to-day operations of the promotion.
