UFC 143 Results: Georges St-Pierre Still Wants Fight with Nick Diaz

While reigning UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre congratulated Greg Jackson's MMA teammate Carlos Condit for winning the interim UFC welterweight title at UFC 143, he is still looking forward a fight with Nick Diaz. 

On Monday, St-Pierre tweeted: 

"

Congratulations to Carlos Condit and my friends Wonderboy and Rafael Natal for their wins this weekend...

Shortly afterwards, GSP once again took to the social media platform to say: 

"

...I still hope to meet Nick Diaz in the Octagon one day.

After defeating B.J. Penn at UFC 137, Diaz called out GSP by questioning whether or not the champ was truly forced off the card with an injury, of if he was just "scared" to fight the Stockton, Calif. bad boy.

GSP reacted by pleading with UFC president Dana White to book a title fight with Diaz, despite the fact that the champion was supposed to fight Condit for the 12 pounds of gold on the same card. 

A bout between Diaz and St-Pierre was then booked for UFC 143, only for "Rush" to pull out of the event shortly afterwards when it was revealed he suffered a torn ACL during training. 

Condit's camp has already stated that they are not interested in an immediate rematch with Diaz, opting to wait until November for GSP. 

If the current 170-pound kingpin was still not fully recovered at that point, Condit would then defend his interim title at least one time before meeting his teammate in a belt unification fight.
