Nate Diaz calls out WWE legend The Rock after leaving UFC following final fight

Nate Diaz has joked he will only fight The Rock after the UFC legend was linked with a move to the WWE.

Diaz fought in the final outing of his UFC contract when he choked out Tony Ferguson earlier this month, which saw him become a free agent for the first time in several years. The UFC veteran's future looked to be in the boxing ring, with Diaz discussing a number of possible lucrative bouts including a third meeting with Conor McGregor and a fight with Jake Paul.

This week Diaz was pictured spending time with wrestling promotion WWE's Chief Content Officer Paul 'Triple H' Levesque and his wife Stephanie McMahon, with former UFC counterpart Henry Cejudo suggesting he is looking to make an appearance with the organisation. And Diaz has made a fresh claim that could signal his future, writing on Twitter : "I'm only going to fight The Rock. Otherwise I’m good."
