UFC legend Nate Diaz slapped a friend of Conor McGregor 's training partner Dillon Danis after UFC 281 on Saturday night.
Diaz was in attendance for the event at Madison Square Garden in New York to watch Israel Adesanya lose his middleweight title to former kickboxing rival Alex Pereira in the headlining act. The 37-year-old was bombarded by fans outside the arena after the fight and they watched on as he bumped into Danis, his friend and McGregor's manager Audie Attar.
Bellator fighter Danis has gone back and forth with Diaz over the years thanks to the UFC legend's rivalry with McGregor, as the pair both have a win over each other in the UFC and have long been backed to meet in a trilogy fight. In the video captured of the altercation, Attar can be heard pleading with Diaz to not cause any trouble by stating that his "kids are here".
