VIDEO: New close-up angle of Nate Diaz's team throwing a drink at a bodyguard during Jake Paul vs. Anderson Silva backstage brawl
Having grown up on the mean streets of Stockton, California, Nate Diaz has never been one to shy away from a scuffle.
The Stockton native was in attendance for the Jake Paul vs. Anderson Silva boxing match last weekend. Footage emerged of a backstage incident between Paul's security and Diaz's entourage.
It was initially unclear who instigated the fracas. However, a new video of the incident has now surfaced with never-seen-before footage. In the video, one of Diaz's team members can be seen throwing a cup of beer at Paul's bodyguard. The cup struck the bodyguard right on the head.
Just moments prior to the cup of beer being thrown, Paul's bodyguard could be heard yelling the following:
"Throw it again! Throw it again! Throw it again! F**k wrong with y'all?! Throw it again!"
Watch the footage below:
Nate Diaz and his team were escorted out of the building by law enforcement following the incident. This meant that Diaz was not present when he was called out by 'The Problem Child' during his post-fight interview.

Nate Diaz fires shots at Charles Oliveira, Dustin Poirier and Kevin Holland on Twitter
Nate Diaz has always been known to engage in a war of words with anyone who speaks ill of his name. However, the Stockton native recently took to Twitter to call out three enormous names in the UFC right now.
Of the three fighters he called out, Diaz was only scheduled to face Poirier, albeit that fight was meant to take place way back in 2018.
'The Diamond' and the Stockton native did exchange words even though the fight didn't materialize, but the beef never reached a boiling point. As for the call-outs of Oliveira and Holland, Diaz's reasoning remains a mystery.
The former UFC fighter tweeted the following:
"This is what happens when u guys fight me. Charles easy hollands easy Dp easy let's see if u can make it n the big leagues for 3 more years rookies."
See the tweet below:

Fans now wonder what the trio of current UFC stars could have done to annoy Diaz enough to post such a tweet, particularly Charles Oliveira, who has never been known to make enemies.
