Nate Diaz could be offered bare-knuckle boxing fight after exit from UFC

BKFC founder David Feldman is planning to offer Nate Diaz a bare-knuckle fight with Mike Perry after his UFC contract expired.

Diaz is now a free agent after winning his final fight with the UFC last weekend against Tony Ferguson. The veteran will move on from a 15-year stint with the promotion, and he is eyeing a number of other lucrative challenges including a new career in the boxing ring.

The 37-year-old has been linked with a number of potential opponents including YouTube star Jake Paul whom he could face after his rival takes on Anderson Silva. Bare-knuckle boxing promoter Feldman has now suggested he will put all of his available resources into convincing Diaz to accept an appearance in the BKFC.
