LAS VEGAS – It was “mission accomplished” for Nate Diaz at UFC 279.
The popular UFC standout Diaz (20-14 MMA, 15-12 UFC) had his anticipated final fight on his UFC contract Saturday when he submitted Tony Ferguson (25-8 MMA, 15-6 UFC) in the fourth round of the welterweight headliner at T-Mobile Arena, bringing his obligations with the promotion to an end.
In the aftermath of a chaotic week, where his opponent switched from Khamzat Chimaev to Ferguson on just one day’s notice due to a significant weight miss, Diaz was in a spirited mood, but didn’t want to delve into many details about his future.
