Nate Diaz kicked out of Jake Paul fight after slapping member of YouTuber's team

Nate Diaz got himself kicked out of the Jake Paul vs Anderson Silva fight after slapping a member of the YouTuber-turned-boxer's team.

Diaz, 37, was in attendance at the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona to support his teammate Chris Avila, who won a lopsided decision against YouTube star 'Doctor Mike' Varshavski on the undercard of the event. Diaz's appearance was welcomed by the crowd as they gave him a huge cheer whenever he appeared on the screen in the arena.

One clip from the scuffle shows Diaz appearing to slap Paul’s meditation coach, before security separates the two teams to prevent the altercation from escalating. A different angle shows Diaz’s crew being ushered back by security before Avila proceeds to throw a bottle at Paul’s entourage.
