The “Stockton Slap” made an appearance backstage at UFC 276.
The slapper was Nate Diaz, while the slapped was a Full Send MMA interviewer Shawny Mack who asked the UFC star if he was at the event to see Sean O’Malley compete.
While the legitimacy of the circumstances surrounding the slap were highly debated online and deemed likely a set-up by many viewers, others – including a few UFC-credentialed media members – claim Diaz was not happy with the interviewer because of some tweets.
