Conor McGregor will face Nate Díaz in the main fight at UFC 196. But the rivalry between the two is such that today they almost caught each other at the press conference that the company organized to promote the weekend’s event.
After answering questions from the attendees, McGregor and Díaz were invited to a confrontation. Nate then placed his right fist close to the Irishman’s face, who responded by slapping his hand.
But the youngest of the Diaz brothers did not stay calm and tried to fight Conor McGregor right there. It took the intervention of UFC president Dana White and at least five other people to calm them down. (Courtesy of Elcomercio.pe).
