Nate Diaz loves to stir things up, whether he’s in the Octagon or not. Though he’s not fighting in the UFC anymore, Nate was in Las Vegas to support his teammate. But things took a turn when he got into a heated exchange with Islam Makhachev backstage after the UFC 311 press conference.

Nate, who won his first boxing match earlier this year, left the UFC after his victory at UFC 279. While he’s hinted at returning to the UFC, he might focus on boxing, especially after seeing Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson.

Nate has had a lot of tension with Khabib Nurmagomedov in the past, and this time, he took a shot at Khabib’s fighter, Makhachev, throwing a water bottle at him.

Things got heated between Nate Diaz and Islam Makhachev backstage after the UFC 311 press conference. As seen in this video by ESPN MMA, Diaz can be heard telling Makhachev to “pull up” before throwing a water bottle at him and his team. Security quickly stepped in to separate them before things got worse.

Makhachev was in Las Vegas to promote his UFC 311 fight against Arman Tsarukyan, while Diaz has been out of the UFC since his win at UFC 279. Makhachev, who defeated Dustin Poirier by submission at UFC 302 earlier this year, hasn’t commented on the incident yet.

As of now, neither Diaz nor Makhachev have addressed the altercation on social media. But it seems like things have calmed down, for now.

This isn’t the first time Diaz has had trouble with Khabib Nurmagomedov’s team. In 2015, Diaz slapped Khabib during a confrontation, which sparked a long-running feud between them.

Nate Diaz Could Return to Fighting After Big Win Over Jorge Masvidal

Nate Diaz might be coming back to fight after beating Jorge Masvidal. Diaz was a big star in the UFC, especially after his exciting fights with Conor McGregor. One of the most surprising moments in UFC history happened when Diaz beat McGregor at UFC 196, even though McGregor was the favorite.

Even though McGregor hasn’t fought since he got injured at UFC 264, Diaz could still return for a third fight against him, which would be huge for the UFC.

Meanwhile, UFC 311 is coming soon, where Makhachev will fight Tsarukyan again. Makhachev won their first fight in 2019, but their next fight might be even bigger.

UFC President Dana White is focused on UFC 310 this weekend, but he may talk about the backstage incident between Diaz and Makhachev. It looks like security will have to pay extra attention next time these two are at the same event.
