Diaz slapped Danis’ friend, who was standing right next to him. This incident made headlines and shocked the UFC community. The brother of Nick Diaz doesn’t hold back, even in a massive crowd. Would be interesting if he accepts the invitation to settle scores.

The Dubliner couldn’t take this insult from the Stockton native, so he mouthed into the mic. This angered Diaz, who hurled a water bottle on stage, aiming at McGregor.
‘The Notorious’ immediately responded to this by hurling cans of energy drinks across the room. The two men were uncontrollably mad at each other. Security guards had to intervene and drag Diaz and company away from the event and calm ‘Mystic Mac’. Nate Diaz has not changed his attitude towards the McGregor camp since then.
