"The only Real Fighters here" - Nate Diaz fires shot at entire Jake Paul vs. Anderson Silva card
Nate Diaz was briefly in attendance at the Jake Paul vs. Anderson Silva fight last night. The Stockton native and his team were there to support their teammate Chris Avila, who was fighting on the card.
Diaz has never been afraid to speak his mind, both in person and on social media. His dislike for Jake Paul has also been known for quite some time. Given this, some Nate Diaz fans may have expected him to fire a shot at Paul whilst at the event. The former UFC fighter did not disappoint.
However, Diaz aimed his guns at the entire fight card instead of just 'The Problem Child' and posted the following on Twitter:
"The only Real fighters here"
See the tweet below:
The Stockton native used a witty play on words to advertise his newly founded fight promotion company, Real Fight Inc.
Diaz was also involved in a backstage scuffle with members of Paul's team, although it's unclear who instigated the shoving match.
Jake Paul took his opportunity to call Diaz out after 'The Problem Child' defeated Anderson Silva via unanimous decision. However, Diaz was no longer in the arena, so fans were unable to see his reaction.
Paul said the following:
"I want Nate Diaz, who's a b***h. He tried to come into my locker room, he tried to cause some s**t. And then he always leaves the f***ing arena. So Diaz, stop being a b***h and fight me."

Nate Diaz was forced to leave the Jake Paul vs. Anderson Silva event by police
Nate Diaz was involved in a backstage scuffle with some of Jake Paul's team members. According to 'The Problem Child', Diaz also attempted to enter Paul's locker room looking for trouble.
Paul called out Diaz in his post-fight interview and complained that Diaz had already left the arena. It seems 'The Problem Child' was unaware that the MMA fighter had been escorted out of the building by police.
Footage has emerged online of an Instagram live video from Diaz's account which shows him and his team being told to leave the event.
