But Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker had other plans in mind for Diaz, who is set to face DREAM welterweight champion Marius Zaromskis at Strikeforce: Miami on Jan. 30 in Sunrise, Fla.

Watch below as Diaz and Coker talk about the upcoming fight and his maturation as a fighter. He also explains why he thinks Hayato Sakurai is ducking him.
