Things got a bit heated in the crowd between Nate Diaz And Khabib Nurmagomedov at last night’s UFC 239.
Apparently both fighters had to be separated after the two exchanged words while taking their seats.

Security moved Nate Diaz to sit somewhere else. He almost started a brawl with Khabib. Their seats were in the same row, couple seats apart. Diaz actually left his seat and tried to get around and wanted to start a fight. #UFC239

Dana White would later confirm the altercation took place.
"They started to get in a fight."
"I'm sure a lot of bad things were said…"
