On Saturday evening, Khabib Nurmagomedov got into an altercation with some members of the Diaz camp at the World Series of Fighting event in Las Vegas, Nevada.<\/p>\n

The altercation started in the pit of the showroom where the event was taking place. A brawl broke out in the stands, but it was separated before anything got out of hand. Nurmagomedov’s crew and Diaz’s crew met once again OUTSIDE of the showroom in a brawl where chairs were thrown and police were involved.<\/p>\n

Nurmagomedov has since spoken out about the event, claiming he has contacted Dana White and other UFC officials with a request to settle his beef with Nate Diaz inside the octagon. Khabib posted the picture below with the following caption:<\/p>\n

“Aleikum all, get unrealistic number of messages about yesterday’s incident, I can tell you simply: fights between guys occur, there is nothing unusual, but since we’re both UFC fighters, it has become a big hassle this news, yesterday we faced in the tournament to Nate Diaz, and he started verbal fight, after he began swinging. Like a professional fighter, I was aware that it’s happening out there where a lot of people, I kept myself in pation, since it was a live broadcast of the tournament WSOF on TV, it may prove a large number of witnesses. I do not want to describe all the details, but when the brawl get hot, that sucker run away from me three times, but I swear by God I am not in debt remain, and remained ever. Will see what’s happen next, I’ve already asked for a fight with him at UFC bosses, but judging by the speed as the Diaz ran, it’s hard to believe that the fight will take place. #run”<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
