A fight broke out at the press conference between Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal.
The two UFC veterans are set to step into the boxing ring for a fight on July 6th.
Diaz and Masvidal have a long-running rivalry that dates back to their MMA clash in 2019, when the latter emerged victorious.
And there is no love lost between the two 39-year-old teams as a mass brawl broke out ahead of the rematch.
Both fighters spoke to the media, and Diaz was in no mood to talk, as he stormed out and stated that he was “tired of sitting here.”
This led to the confrontation taking place off stage and shortly after a fight broke out.
Words were exchanged and a fist was apparently thrown for the first time by a member of Diaz’s crew.
Security tried to intervene as Masvidal’s boys reacted, landing kicks and punches.
All hell then broke loose as they both attacked and the pair fell to the deck, taking several people down with them.
The fight ended after Misvidal himself pulled Diaz’s friend away from the fight, grabbing his dreadlocks.

By this time, the man had already been beaten and bruised as blood ran down his face.
And things almost exploded again later when Diaz stopped mid-interview to confront Masvidal’s team.
He shouted to a group standing in the distance, “What are you looking at? Come here and get your ass kicked then.
Diaz and Misvidal’s camp continued to exchange heated words before another fight was broken up by security.
