Nate Diaz vs Jorge Masvidal 2: New date, TV channel, start time and live stream for huge boxing match
UFC legends Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal are set for a long-awaited rematch, but there is a twist.
Diaz and Masvidal, both 39, fought at UFC 244 back in 2019, with the latter coming out on top to win the BMF (Baddest Mother F****r) title.
Many called for a rematch between the two lightweight foes and their prayers have finally been answered, however this will not be an MMA fight.
Instead, the American bruisers will lock horns in a 10-round boxing bout.
The two fighters have only ever boxed once professionally throughout their celebrated careers.
Masvidal stepped inside a boxing ring back in 2005 when he beat Joseph Benjamin whereas Diaz lost to YouTuber Jake Paul last year.
When does Diaz vs Masvidal take place?
Masvidal and Diaz will now take place on Saturday, July 6 from the Honda Center in Anaheim, California.
The fight was originally set for June 1 but has been moved to avoid a clash with UFC 302.
The card kicks off from 10pm UK time with the main event expected to get underway from 2am the following morning.
