After departing from the UFC, Nate Diaz ventured into boxing, where he fought Jake Paul but lost by decision. However, Diaz later faced his former rival Jorge Masvidal in a boxing match and secured a victory. Additionally, tensions have been rising between former UFC fighters Nate Diaz and Brendan Schaub, with the two recently exchanging jabs online, sparking interest among fans.
Diaz is known for his bold personality, and fans have witnessed his trash-talking skills since his UFC days. Recently, Diaz took to X to give former heavyweight contender Brendan Schaub a cutting new nickname. On Friday evening, he wrote:
“Brendan ‘The big ol’ pu**y’ Schaub”
As expected, ‘Big Brown’ didn’t let the insult go unanswered. Schaub fired back at Diaz, challenging him for a grappling match. While Schaub typically brushes off insults, he felt the need to respond this time, challenging his former UFC colleague and expressing confidence that a grappling match would result in Diaz getting seriously hurt. Schaub’s response was:
“Oooh buddy. I probably got 20 pounds on you, so not too far off. I’ll snap your neck. Set up a grappling match and let me know how it goes for you. Have one of your handlers read this tweet and get back to me.”

Diaz is currently involved in a social media feud with Schaub, heightening the anticipation for his next fight. However, despite the ongoing controversy, Dillon Danis has alleged that Diaz declined an offer for an MMA fight.
Dillon Danis Says Nate Diaz Turned Down MMA Fight Offer
Fans are buzzing for Diaz’s return, especially since it’s been ages since they last saw the Stockton Slugger throw down in the cage. He may have just stepped into the ring against Jake Paul, but Dillon Danis is out here claiming that Diaz is dodging a cage fight with him. Recently, Danis went on X, previously Twitter, to reveal that Diaz and four other big-name fighters have declined to take him on in MMA.
Danis claims that Diaz has refused to fight him, though Diaz himself has not confirmed this. Given that Diaz has already stepped into the boxing ring, fans are now left wondering whether his next fight will be in boxing or MMA.
