Following scintillating return to 155 pounds, Nate Diaz done with welterweight - for now

DENVER - UFC lightweight contender Nate Diaz's 170-pound experiment is over, at least for now.

It's not that his two recent losses in the division have discouraged him from giving it another shot. It's not even that he was influenced by an incredible UFC 135 win over Japanese legend Takanori Gomi.

No, the truth is Diaz feels like he has a duty to stay at lightweight for now. A quick survey of the division's landscape, and Diaz realized he belongs among the sport's best 155-pounders.
