It has been almost 5 years since UFC icons Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal squared off inside the octagon. Both fighters are not currently active in the UFC, but they will be seen going up against each other this coming Saturday. However, the fight won’t be taking place inside an octagon. The clash will be a boxing match instead. During a press conference ahead of the fight on July 6, something strange occurred which has been making rounds online.

Kick streamer N3on attended the press briefing as well. The young streamer was completely unaware of what was in store for him. One question from him turned the entire scenario upside down for him and even put him in an extremely dangerous situation. Check out what transpired at the press conference. 

N3on asks Nate Diaz a brutal question

As the media was asking questions to the fighters, N3on waited his turn and asked the ‘The Stockton Slugger’ something, which was not quite well received by the former UFC star. N3on asked, “Second question I have for you today – when you do get knocked out, are you going to retire? If you do. I don’t know what’s going to happen. I’m going to be watching. I’m excited to see both sides. I have a lot of respect for everyone, man. It’s just I want to see a great fight.”

The 39-year-old fighter did not like that N3on assumed that he would get knocked out by Masvidal, given he did get knocked down during their first encounter. Diaz replied, “Who said that? I don’t know who you are. Little b**ch boy.” Diaz then went on a verbal tirade haranguing N3on for what Diaz perceived as an obvious disrespect aimed at him: “You f**king pu**y fa**ot! The f**k? I’m going to kick you in your f**king leg. He said when you get knocked out. Hey, P.S., f**k you! F**k you! He said when you get knocked out. Right. It’s little sh*t kids like this b**ch talking in this motherf**ker… changing the times. I got little girls that will f**k you up!”

The 19-year-old was rattled by Diaz’s harsh tone and his voice shook as he spoke and took his leave. Even so, it was too late when N3on expressed regret for his choice of words. Diaz’s explosive words were not just it, though. Subsequently, N3on encountered far more serious issues after the press meet.  

Did N3on get jumped by Nate Diaz’s crew? 

When speaking with someone whose job it is to beat people as badly as possible, there’s one thing you should always keep in mind: choose your words wisely. Apparently, Diaz’s team was trailing N3on as he left the news conference building. A viral video appears to show that upon exiting the premises, Diaz’s team of 4-5 guys rushed towards N3on, filled with rage.

As soon as the 19-year-old realized that he was being chased by some fierce-looking guys gunning for his head, he started running for his life. He was also heard screaming, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry”, while trying to run away from them.

The famous streamer’s shocking response after the controversy

N3on was live streaming as he exited the building. The video stream was interrupted while members of Diaz’s crew hurried to teach N3on a lesson. The video quickly garnered a lot of attention from fans online. The streamer took to X to share his experience and wrote, “WALLAHI ON MY MOTHERS HEARTBEAT I ALMOST GOT JUMPED. F**K THIS SH*T AND F**K ALL OF U FOR SAYING THIS SH*T. I ALMOST GOT BEATEN TO ACTUAL DEATH BY HIS BOYS F**K ALL OF U.”

The incident surely turned out to be one of the scariest ones of his life. In another tweet, he stated, “On my life I’m about to be done with this bullsh*t. I just got ran after by grown a** 40 year olds and I ran into a road with driving cars and went into a dead end in a parking garage and I see this. I’m good off this fake a** love.”

However, it is not the first time that the Kick streamer has had a problem with people from the UFC. Before attending UFC 296 last year, N3on posted a video online where he stated that he would talk “sh*t” to former president Donald Trump, who was also going to be present at the event. This certainly made waves online, and he was then stopped from entering the venue due to his controversial statement.

Meanwhile, what do you think about N3on’s question to Nate Diaz? Do you think he would get knocked out by Jorge Masvidal? Or will he prevail in this anticipated encounter? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
