Dustin Poirier answers challenge from Nate Diaz: ‘I’d touch you up at any weight’

It’s been nearly three years since Dustin Poirier and Nate Diaz were supposed to meet at UFC 230 but it appears the bad blood between them has never gone away.

Back then, Poirier was riding an impressive win streak that including stoppage victories over Justin Gaethje and Eddie Alvarez, which then led to the high profile showdown against Diaz with the card scheduled for Madison Square Garden in New York.

Unfortunately, Poirier was forced out of the fight due to injury and the matchup was never rescheduled.
