Though UFC welterweight champ Tyron Woodley’s possible scrap with Nate Diaz<\/a> seems to have lost some steam, Woodley himself is still fired about about this prospective showdown, and believes it could still happen.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m fired up about people that tell you \u2018Don\u2019t be scared, homie,\u2019 and then they\u2019re scared, homie! That\u2019s what I\u2019m fired up about,\u201d Woodley said on The Hollywood Beatdown <\/a>(h\/t MMAFighting<\/a>).<\/p>\n

\u201c[It\u2019s] not a possible fight, [it\u2019s] a 50-percent completed fight,” he continued. “You got one half of the party that\u2019s been offered, that\u2019s accepted, that\u2019s out here with their bag at Wildcard Boxing getting punched by world champions and then you got the other side that\u2019s got a whole bunch of excuses. So that\u2019s what I\u2019m kind of fired up about.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201c[The problem is that Nate Diaz] is scared. Guys in our sport pump their gums quite a bit and they get you to think that they\u2019re these huge, tough guys, they\u2019re these gangsters, that they\u2019ll fight anybody, anytime. Then when you get in front of a person like me, then the crickets come out. Then they don\u2019t really want to fight. It happened with Bisping, it happened with\u00a0<\/span>Georges St-Pierre<\/a>, it happened with\u00a0<\/span>Conor McGregor<\/a>, it happened with\u00a0<\/span>Nick Diaz, big brother, and now it\u2019s happening with baby brother so I guess it\u2019s in the bloodline.\u201d<\/p>\n

Still nursing a shoulder injury, Woodley is hoping Diaz will accept the fight, as he’s the only challenger he’d be comfortable fighting with this injury:<\/p>\n

\u201cGet off the pot, quit crapping yourself, you\u2019ve done took plenty of butt-whoopings before, this ain\u2019t gonna be anything different, get your big paycheck, and drift off into the fog.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf there\u2019s any fighter that I think that I can fight with my shoulder not 100 percent, it\u2019s that dude. That dude on the other side of the camera that won\u2019t sign the contract that\u2019s always saying \u2018Don\u2019t be scared, homie\u2019 and walking around in black V-necks acting tough. Bring it over this way and I\u2019m gonna Ferguson stomp him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Do you want to see Tyron Woodley and Nate Diaz fight?<\/p>\n
