There is a possibility that Conor McGregor could be fighting Dustin Poirier for the second time in early 2021 and one fighter who is not pleased with that is Nate Diaz.
Diaz, who split a two-fight series with McGregor, while never fighting Poirier, took to Twitter to blast the potential fight:
Let’s don’t get it twisted I already smoked these 2 now they play fighting ... pic.twitter.com/aDx83oE997

The Stockton Native made a comment about fighting at 165 pounds and Poirier says he would fight Diaz at that weight, which led to the following exchange:
I'll whip you there too https://t.co/D9FL1mnLCo
