To add to the speculation following GSP’s interview, rumors surfaced that GSP had reportedly signed to fight Nick Diaz once again, this time at UFC 206.

While St-Pierre has yet to confirm or deny the rumors, ‘Rush’ revealed in an interview with MMAFighting that he very well could be making his return against Diaz:

“It could be very possible to happen.”

“I beat him, but there was a lot of animosity,” St-Pierre said. “I didn’t feel I fought well that fight. He says I poisoned him and all that kind of stuff. Whatever. He has very good excuses. Even myself, I could make excuses, but I’m not that type of guy. Trust me when I say I didn’t fight as well as I wanted to and it would be fun to do it again.”

Diaz, who recently completed his 18-month suspension handed down to him by the NSAC. Has stated that he will only return to the Octagon for big fights.

Do you think a rematch is enough to draw both men out of retirement?
