Strikeforce boss wants Diaz to fight Woodley

Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker is keen for a fight between welterweight champion Nick Diaz and Tyron Woodley.

Diaz has talked about a move to boxing, following his win against Paul Daley earlier this month.

“Tyron Woodley has been bugging me all weekend,” Coker said on Sherdog. “Nick doesn’t feel like he has anybody left to fight, but T-Wood is a guy that’s getting better and better.

“I think Nick fighting T-Wood is probably his best wrestling test to date. I don’t think Nick’s fought a wrestler that has better skills in wrestling than Tyron. That’s a fight we’re definitely looking at.”
