Key Points:
- Nate Diaz has chosen to fight Mike Perry on the Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano card instead of pursuing an immediate trilogy fight with Conor McGregor, despite receiving a better financial offer from the UFC for the latter.
- Diaz respects McGregor's skills but prefers to wait until McGregor fully recovers from his recent leg injury and losses before engaging in another fight, wanting to face him only when both are at their best.
- Diaz is focused on fighting top-tier opponents like Mike Perry, who has recently defeated notable fighters, and dismisses interest in facing fighters like Dustin Poirier unless they return to active competition on their own terms.
- Diaz emphasizes his commitment to competing against the best fighters and insists he will not rush into fights unless the competition meets his standards, highlighting his history of facing numerous top-five ranked opponents.
