Kevin Lee has thrown his hat in the ring to face one of Stockton's finest, Nate Diaz.

While former UFC Lightweight Champion Eddie Alvarez was recently involved in a Twitter war with Diaz, Lee claimed that Alvarez is 'washed up', and would never sniff a UFC title shot again. Lee added that considering how he's coming off a loss to Interim Lightweight Champion Tony Ferguson, and Diaz's last fight was a loss to Conor McGregor, Lee vs. Diaz is the fight which that fans want to see.

Below are a few excerpts of Lee's statements regarding Alvarez and Diaz (*courtesy--The MMA Hour & MMAFighting*)--

"Alvarez, he’s bound for retirement. If you want to beat a man into retirement if you want to continue to take his brain cells, go ahead. But if you want a real fight, if you want a real champion, if you want a real future champion, then (Diaz) knows who to come to. If he’s really a sportsman, if he’s really a competitor, he knows who to come to."
