Nate Diaz will make his long-awaited return to the Octagon this November in the co-main event of UFC 230.

Conor McGregor - Dana White makes Khabib Nurmagomedov fight statement
UFC president Dana White has claimed he has no concerns about security ahead of McGregor's showdown with Nurmagomedov.
In April, McGregor attacked a bus carrying his successor at the summit of the lightweight division at the UFC 223 media day, an act which saw him found guilty of disorderly conduct, order to pay reparations and sentenced to five days community service.
"No, I think that Conor came out and did what he did and didn't expect the results that happened," White told ESPN's Brett Okamoto.
"I'm pretty sure he's on probation right now in New York.
"I think that we're not going to have any problems with these guys. We're going to have a great fight."
