Puryear: "Would love to have a boxing match with Diaz"

Former interim UFC lightweight champion Dustin Porier has said he would like to fight under boxing rules with former octagon colleague Nate Diaz one day.

"I would love to have a boxing match. I'll ask the UFC for permission. It would be an interesting change of pace, a new style of training. A dream opponent? I would box with Nate Diaz. I would love to fight him in MMA. But it would be better to meet him in the ring. Nate's style really exhausts his opponent. You don't have a single moment to take a break, you are always in a focused state," said Puryear on the air of The MMA Hour

Recall that last weekend Diaz won on points in a boxing fight against Jorge Masvidal.
