Nate Diaz has a history of throwing beverages during fight week events, with the latest incident involving a water bottle altercation at the UFC 310 ceremonial weigh-ins.
Nate Diaz, well, he’s got a knack for tossing drinks around.
Friday was quite the whirlwind for the UFC. First, they kicked off with a press conference for UFC 311 set for January. Then came the ceremonial weigh-ins for UFC 310, happening this Saturday in Vegas. Amidst all this, Nate Diaz showed up to support his buddy Kron Gracie, who’s fighting at UFC 310. And yep, another backstage scuffle ensued.
Post-UFC 311 presser, things got spicy. Diaz bumped into Islam Makhachev, Umar Nurmagomedov, and their crew while waiting for the UFC 310 weigh-ins. No one really knows what sparked it, but before you knew it, bottles were flying between Diaz and someone from Makhachev’s team. Security had to step in—chaos as usual.
Diaz and beverage-throwing? Oh, that’s old news. Remember 2016? He chucked energy drink cans at Conor McGregor during their UFC 202 presser. Fast forward a few years: another bottle-flinging incident before the UFC 279 presser led to its cancellation. And just last year? A water bottle flew towards reality TV star Chase DeMoor at a Misfits Boxing event. Classic Nate.
