Nate Diaz & Dustin Poirier Go After Khabib Nurmagomedov On Twitter
Nate Diaz and Dustin Poirier were supposed to clash late last year at UFC 230, but the bout was canned after Poirier suffered an injury.
It would seem like the duo has stopped focusing on each other and have turned their attention to UFC Lightweight Champion Khabib Nurmagomedov.
Poirier would go after Nurmagomedov and former UFC Interim Lightweight Champion Tony Ferguson, but would first call out Nurmagomedov on Twitter:
I want Khabib https://t.co/9zBk2AzKr1

A fan would then ask if Poirier would rather fight Nurmagomedov or Ferguson, which lead to the following response:
Either one of them! Let’s make it happen!! https://t.co/4ynNPaqnnd

I will be Victorious https://t.co/c27PexHJmU

Diaz would go up next, commenting on a Twitter post where Nurmagomedov was addressing recent comments made by former two division UFC champion Conor McGregor:
I slapped you in your head you and your team didn’t do shit …

That would lead to a response from Nurmagomedov, which would start a back and forth between the two:
You was hiding behind security and ran away coward, it’s clear on the video. We just smashed your team that night you punk pic.twitter.com/xvJoO8thxo

Be real
You know what happened live with it —-— Nathan Diaz (@NateDiaz209) January 13, 2019
Nobody from the four pack of Diaz, Poirier, Nurmagomedov and Ferguson is booked for a fight at the moment, so it is possible that some of these feuds can get settled in the Octagon in due time.
