Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Practically 5 years after their inaugural BMF title conflict at UFC 244, Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal are set to throw down a second time in a 10-round, 175-pound mild heavyweight boxing bout on Sat., June 1, 2024 at Kia Discussion board in Los Angeles, California. It’s an apparent but unusual reserving, one that can check the pay-per-view (PPV) star energy of two older MMA fighters who’ve traditionally moved the needle.
Since followers are being requested to fork over their hard-earned pay to see this grudge match within the ring, the duo are happening an in depth media tour to advertise the struggle. Earlier this week, Diaz made headlines for smoking a joint on stage in New York after a fan threw it to him! Between hits, the 2 debated who was the diva and why the rematch was in a cage relatively than ring.
Customary struggle stuff.
The issue is that Nate Diaz hates interviews, press conferences, and most struggle obligations exterior of truly hitting the opposite man. He’s recognized to flee from such eventualities, and it occurred once more earlier on Friday night. In very traditional Diaz style, he walked proper out and left Masvidal sitting there confused.
“I’m finished with all this s—t,” Diaz started. “I’m cool with all this f—king speaking s—t. I received a complete group to signify. I don’t wish to do none of this, I by no means did wish to do any of it: Fuck this n—ga and fuck his group, bro! I’m out, I gotta go.
Sq. up with your self, motherf—ker.”
Timeless as ever, Nathan.
