If he decides to rethink his retirement, announced after the defeat to Georges St Pierre at UFC 158, Nick Diaz could return to the octagon in a rematch against Carlos Condit – his tormentor in the dispute for the interim welterweight belt. This is because, in an interview with the website MMA Junkie, Condit stated that he is constantly thinking about a new fight against Diaz.
“I want to be in good fights, with a lot of publicity and a series of comments, and a rematch between (Nick) Diaz and I would interest a lot of people,” said Condit. “(Our first meeting) It was a close fight. I won by decision. So, I think we could provide a good show”, added the former WEC champion.
Standing still since March this year, when he ended up defeated by John hendricks in the co-main event of UFC 158, Carlos Condit remains second in the Ultimate welterweight division rankings. In his career, the 29-year-old American has a record of 28 wins and seven losses.

I believe that any other fighter would be more interesting than Nick, he just fights with lack of respect, his style is not at all attractive and he is not at Condit's level.
I would like to see Condit vs Demian, and I would put Koscheck against Nick Diaz, it was a much more obvious thing to do.
Isn't it possible there's no other fighter? Nick has a horrible style and personality, he ties up the fight. I don't know how he continues in the UFC, Condit is superior, he deserves someone worthy.
