Dana White: Nick Diaz Still A UFC Fighter But Not In Need Of Fight Due To GSP Payday

“Nick’s obviously still on the roster. He’s still an active fighter here in the UFC, but as far as I know, he’s just not interested in fighting right now.

“When Nick finally fought Georges St-Pierre, Nick Diaz made some money. So Nick Diaz has some kickback money,” White said. “He can probably take as long as he wants to fight again. I would assume that’s why (he’s not fighting).

“You’re fighting to make a living, you’re fighting to pay your bills, you’re fighting to get things that you want out of life. And with the money that Nick Diaz made in his last fight, I’m sure he’s got everything he wants right now.”

During yesterday’s Google Hangout, UFC president Dana White gave an update on fan favorite welterweight, Nick Diaz.
