Nate Diaz reignites beef with Khabib Nurmagomedov: ‘I slapped you in your head and your team didn’t do s*it’

Nate Diaz isn’t just going to sit around twiddling his thumbs while his enemies go at it on social media.

Putting his Twitter fingers to use, Diaz fired a shot at UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov, who himself was responding to an online jab from Conor McGregor.

It’s complicated.

“I slapped you in your head and your team didn’t do shit,” Diaz wrote in response to a tweet by Nurmagomedov. “Live with that, you’re all p*ssies.”

Diaz’s beef with Nurmagomedov goes back several years, with UFC president Dana White at one point claiming that Diaz had actually turned down a fight with the unbeaten Russian.
