On May 16, MVP MMA’s Netflix event will see Diaz back in action after a four-year hiatus when he takes on Perry. The bout promises to deliver all the chaos and entertainment fans have come to expect from both men.
Diaz was initially in discussions to return to the UFC for a trilogy bout with Conor McGregor. But instead, he chose a different path outside of the promotion, where this time he’ll meet a fresh face rather than an old rival.

At first, Oliveira didn’t seem too interested in the matchup, but his stance has shifted since then. Now he says he’d be open to making it happen. Speaking to Bloody Elbow via CasinoHawks, Oliveira weighed in on the bout: “It’s mad.
Nate is a fighter. Perry is a fighting man also. Two men who came through the UFC scene and now they’re not there anymore.
