The last time when Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz fought, it ended in a knockout victory for Masvidal due to a doctor stoppage. The rematch is about to happen but this time the clash is inside the squared circle on July 6th. Ahead of the fight this weekend, something peculiar happened on media day. What, you ask? Nate Diaz’s team allegedly chased after YouTuber N3on with the apparent intention of confronting him.

Certainly, their bout might be a revenge match for Diaz and it would mean that he will give his best to clinch the victory. However, when you blatantly question about a second knockout loss, Diaz was bound to lose his cool. And YouTuber N3on got a taste of Diaz’s rough side when he questioned his probable retirement if he loses his second fight as well.

The YouTuber took the mic at the media day and asked, “When you do get knocked out, are you gonna retire?” The question came as a direct attack on Diaz as the first response that came out of his mouth was, “Who said that?” N3on further emphasized, “If you do, if you do. I don’t know what’s gonna happen. I’m gonna be watching, I’m excited to see both sides but…” 

Diaz’s response to the question was as blunt as he could make it. He said, “Im gonna kick you in your fu**ing legs.” The Stockton native threw a flurry of insults at the YouTuber and when everything seemed right for N3on, it came all crashing down as Team Diaz chased the YouTuber out of the building. This interaction between the two individuals was caught on camera and the fans had an uncommon reaction to it.

Fight fans take the side of Nate Diaz in the chasing incident

YouTubers have recently become a part of the MMA world, and not to everyone’s liking. So some fans called it as they saw it.

“Had bro running and begging for his life”

Nate Diaz’s cardio is legendary and the secret of the fact that he does marathons in between his fights. When the media asked him about his cardio, Diaz emphasized, “I’ve got a race this weekend, and another one lined up for the following weekend.” Hence, one fan wrote,

“Neon trying to outrun tri-athletes is too funny”

Furthermore, a social media fan pointed out that people should stop disrespecting the fighters as this could be a bit dangerous for them. A classic example of this is the UFC 300 moment when Arman Tsarkyan was close to beating a bystander fan as he yelled abuses at him.

“Please stop disrespecting fighters. These people in the crowd get too comfortable bro.”

Moreover, a fan seems to have to agree with what the team did.

“Diaz team always delivers”

N3on’s fan following has been on a decrease for the things that he has done recently. The YouTuber threatened a 10-year-old in one of his streams which was followed with a ban by the streaming site. Regardless, the community believes that it’s time for someone to catch him.

“Neon gotta get jumped big time, he is doing too much”

Last but not least, another fan seems to agree that N3on is too much

“He got lucky,he didn’t get f***ed up like he should have”

N3on was not harmed by Team Diaz in any way. Reagrdless, what’s your take on the entire fiasco? State your thoughts in the comments below.
