Diaz Brothers And Khabib Nurmagomedov Engage In Heated Brawl At WSOF 22
The Diaz Brothers are no strangers to trash talk, bad blood, and confrontation as they are two of the most outspoken fighters in mixed martial arts (MMA) history. Lately, it seems as if younger brother Nate has found himself in the midst of a trash talk, and twitter war with top lightweight Khabib “The Eagle” Nurmagomedov.
Diaz has not competed since he was absolutely destroyed by now champion Rafael dos Anjos last December, and Nurmagomedov has been out since April 2014 with various knee injuries, but that hasn’t stopped the two from bashing each other, and it seems as if their war has come full circle tonight (August 1, 2015).
MMAFighting.com’s Shaun Al-Shatti has reported that the two actually got into a brawl at World Series of Fighting 22:

That was crazy. Saw it late but looked like actual punches got thrown between Diaz and Nurmagomedov. Khabib was legit pissed.

Al-Shatti followed his tweets up with a video from his official Instagram account, reporting that older brother Nick Diaz got in on the action as well:
The details of the situation are not fully clear as of now, but this sure seems like a crazy situation between two UFC lightweights who clearly do not like each other.
