UFC legend Diaz was involved i a heated altercation with a friend of McGregor’s training partner Dillon Danis last weekend in New York
Conor McGregor has praised his UFC rival Nate Diaz for landing a slap on Dillon Danis’ friend at UFC 281 last weekend.
Diaz, 37, was in attendance for the Madison Square Garden card in New York to watch Israel Adesanya lose his middleweight title to former kickboxing rival Alex Pereira in the headlining act. The UFC legend, who is no stranger to a scuffle, was swarmed by fans outside the prestigious arena after the event and they had their cameras at the ready as he bumped into Danis, his friend and McGregor’s manager Audie Attar.
Danis is a training partner of McGregor’s and is notorious for trolling fighters on Twitter, going back and forth with Diaz multiple times over the years largely thanks to his rivalry with McGregor. Attar can be seen pleading with Diaz to not cause any trouble in a clip of the altercation, with the manager telling Diaz that his “kids are here”.
