Former UFC star Jorge Masvidal blasted Nate Diaz for his list of demands ahead of their boxing match. Masvidal and Diaz will go head-to-head in a 10-round boxing match on June 1. They had earlier faced off at the UFC 244 in 2019 in the inaugural BMF title, but the fight had to be stopped as Nate suffered a bad wound in his eyebrow. A few months ahead of their bout, they came together for their first faceoff to promote the boxing match.
While Diaz and Masvidal kept it professional during the event, the former UFC stars didn’t leave any chance to throw verbal jabs at each other. However, after the event, Masvidal stated that his opponent made several ultimatum-like demands about the logistics of their fight, which made Masvidal frustrated. After the conference, the former BMF title holder lashed out at Diaz for his long list of demands.
Sportskeeda quoted Masvidal as saying, "He said he wouldn't fight unless he walked out second, none negotiable. What the f**k are you talking about?! Real Fighters Inc. and this is the s**t you're pulling? I've got a list of s**t that I'm gonna drop. Another thing he wanted was his name on top [of my name on the poster] or he wouldn't fight. I'm like, do you want to fight or what, motherf**ker?! 'Cause you've been telling the whole world the same s**t."
The bout between Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz will take place on June 1 at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California, United States.
