Nick Diaz likely for April Strikeforce event

By Jim Murphy February 6th, 2009

Apparently Nick Diaz–who has all of the talent to be among the sport’s ‘pound for pound’ best–was one of the fighters ‘acquired’ by Strikeforce and is likely to appear on their 4/11 event against an opponent TBA.

Nick Diaz will most likely be fighting in late March or early April for StrikeForce. His last bout was to have taken place in Dream against Sakurai, but Japanese television executives nixed the match and replaced Sakurai’s opponent for a former pro wrestler they hoped would muster better ratings.

His opponent has yet to be named and final contracts have not been signed, however StrikeForce is committed to securing a marquee matchup for Diaz.

It’ll definitely be great to see Diaz back in action….
