Draws Nick Diaz overseas
Luque will take on Nick Diaz in a welterweight matchup at UFC Abu Dhabi on August 3, UFC President Dana White announced via X on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Luque has hit a rough patch of late, dropping three of four fights, albeit all against strong competition. After falling to Joaquin Buckley in March, Luque may still be on the edge of the welterweight rankings, but the UFC recognized he needs a get-right spot. That will come this August, as Luque will face a massive name in Diaz on a globally-recognized card. Luque also happens to be eight years younger than Diaz, who is winless since 2011 and hasn't competed since 2021. There's no doubt the UFC is giving Diaz a massive pay-day to get featured in Abu Dhabi, but expect him to serve primarily as a punching bag for Luque, who will be heavily favored.

No-shows Atlantic City loss
Luque lost to Joaquin Buckley via TKO (punches) at 3:17 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Atlantic City.
ANALYSIS
Luque's performance was so bad that it makes you wonder if he was hurt and/or sick. There's literally nothing positive to say about his effort. He was able to generate nothing on the feet and failed on all three of his takedown attempts. The finish came when Luque shot on his opponent, tried to pull guard and ended up getting stacked by Buckley and pounded out. The 32-year-old looked great in his most recent bout against Rafael dos Anjos last August, but he's now lost three of his last four fights dating back to April 2022 and is just about out of time in terms of making an impact in the rankings.
