In the latest episode of the Weighing In podcast, McCarthy discussed the potential matchup and suggested that BKFC might not be able to afford Diaz for a fight in their organization: "I think we really started this conversation off with Mike Perry and bare-knuckle boxing and Nate doing bare-knuckle boxing and you're not gonna see that... They don't have the money that Nate wants to do that." Watch the full episode of the Weighing In podcast below: McCarthy's words came after a tweet by BKFC where they proposed a matchup between Diaz and 'Platinum'.

The Stockton native took on Tony Ferguson in the five-round main event and emerged victorious via a guillotine choke in the fourth round. In his post-fight interview with Joe Rogan, Diaz said that he wanted to go and compete in sports other than MMA. After doing so, the 37-year-old said he wanted to return to the UFC and win a title: "I wanna get out of the UFC for a minute and show all these UFC fighters how to take over and own up another sport how you're supposed to do it. Because Conor McGregor didn't know how to do it. None of these other fighters know how to do it. So I'm gonna go out there and I'm gonna take over another profession and become the best at that... and then I'm gonna be f***ing right back here to get the f***ing UFC title."
