LAS VEGAS – Carlos Condit has replaced Nick Diaz and now fights UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre at next month’s UFC 137 event.
At a press conference in Las Vegas, UFC president Dana White today announced the news, citing difficulties in getting Diaz to show up for scheduled media events this week.
“He looked me right in my face and lied to me and told me he’d do [the promotional commitments],” said White, who played a video promoting Condit as Diaz’s replacement.
