Chael Sonnen believes Nate Diaz fans could miss his final UFC fight after the promotion forced him to face Khamzat Chimaev in order to get out of his contract.
Diaz has been actively pushing to get out of his exclusive deal with the top MMA promotion over the last year, and made his grievances public in an explosive interview last week. And the UFC have now got him a match-up, against the No.4-ranked welterweight contender who has never lost.
Chimaev was initially offered to Diaz early in his battle with the promotion, but he wanted a different match-up at first. However, the California native is now so desperate to get out of his deal that he is willing to take the unfavourable bout, in which he is a massive 1/11 underdog with certain bookies.
