Dustin Poirier has indicated he would consider coming out of retirement specifically to face Nate Diaz. The two fighters were originally scheduled to fight at UFC 230 in November 2018, but the bout never materialized. Now in 2026, Poirier has revealed on UFC's Deep Waters podcast that settling this unfinished business with Diaz is the only scenario that would bring him back to active competition. This represents a potential high-profile matchup between two veteran lightweights.
