"To those asking, Zuffa has "exercised its right in to accelerate the term of its promotional and other obligations." In other words I'm cut"

"“All of a sudden, he was shooting for a takedown, and I’m like, ‘Oh, you’re a wrestler now? Remember, I’m the black belt in jiu-jitsu. And you’re shooting on me now? This is a wrap." - Nate Diaz"

Any news on this guy?  He's been inactive for almost two years. 

Hope he's not retired, he put on some exciting fights.
