I don&#8217;t think so. From what I hear, GSP doesn&#8217;t want that Nate Diaz fight.

So that would put GSP&#8217;s fight line right around December.

On top of that, Brendan Schaub shares the same manager as St-Pierre and has been right when hinting at big fights in the past before. Most notably, the McGregor vs Floyd Mayweather super fight in boxing.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless of whether or not the former UFC heavyweight contender, Schaub ends up being right, St-Pierre could still fight Diaz either way.
