Michael Bisping appears to have touched a nerve with Nate Diaz after selecting Jake Paul to beat him in a possible boxing match.
Diaz labeled Clitheroe England’s Bisping a ‘goofy f-cker’ after the UFC Corridor of Famer and former middleweight champion recommended Nate can be too small to battle 6-0 YouTube boxer Paul who’s coming off the largest win of his profession within the type of a unanimous choice over Anderson Silva.
“The one battle I ever noticed by this goofy f–cker. Don’t hate me trigger you ain’t me MB,” Diaz posted in a since-deleted tweet that included an image of Bisping getting knocked out by Dan Henderson.
Bisping, broadly thought of one of the entertaining analysts within the sport, responded in a YouTube video questioning the large chip on Diaz’s shoulder and calling for mutual peace.
“I mentioned maybe Nate Diaz would lose to Jake Paul… in fact, that touched a nerve with Nate Diaz,” Bisping, who retired in 2018, mentioned (h/t MMA Information). “He got here out on Twitter the opposite day and mentioned ‘I wanna see one battle this goofy fucker’s ever been in’… confirmed an image of me getting knocked out towards Dan Henderson. Nate Diaz, c’mon mate, what’s your downside? I didn’t say something unhealthy; I didn’t say something disrespectful in any respect.”
He added: “The fact is the place I’m in…we’re analysts, we’re commentators, we do extracurricular stuff as nicely… and we speak in regards to the sport and now we have to offer opinions…typically I used to be proper, typically I used to be improper, however 9 occasions out of 10 I used to be offending any person. I didn’t say something unhealthy about Nate Diaz, I simply mentioned he was the smaller man and he used to battle at 155. And in a boxing battle he’s going to have all of his expertise taken away…and Jake Paul is predominantly a boxer.”
Diaz was chucked out of the Gila River Enviornment after beginning a brawl with Jake Paul’s entourage earlier than his battle with Anderson Silva final Saturday in Glendale, Arizona. Paul gained the battle by way of choice, however Diaz alleged the bout was rigged after claiming UFC legend and pound-for-pound nice Silva was on the ‘payroll’.
