By Joe Lebeau on 2/8/2012 12:35 AM
It appears as though the fans, and Nick Diaz, will get their wish.
Following the controversial end to the Nick Diaz/Carlos Condit bout that headlined this past weekend's UFC 143, PWInsiderXTRA has all but confirmed that the two fighters will meet again.
As originally reported by MMA "Gangster"
FrontRowBrian, Diaz and Condit will likely meet again this summer at an unnamed event.
Shortly after FRB reported the news, reports started appearing on other news outlets, and both Condit's Manager, Malki Kawa and Diaz's manager, Cesar Gracie, denied the rumors. However, Malki later wrote on Twitter that the powers that be have called him, and he and Condit would be in Las Vegas on Friday to make an announcement.
Dana White later confirmed that Diaz asked for the rematch on Saturday night, and that Condit has accepted.
Meetings will be going on between the UFC and Condit this Friday, and one would expect that Diaz would be involved as well.
Although nothing is confirmed, it is all but certain that the two will settle the score, once and for all, later this year.
