After Clay Guida lost to Brian Ortega at UFC 199 last Saturday night at The Forum in Inglewood, California, a brawl broke out between UFC star Nate Diaz and Clay’s older brother, Jason Guida.

Regarding the wild incident involving Diaz and Guida backstage at the event, Team Alpha Male coach Justin Buchholz, who witnessed the brawl live, stated the following.

“It was the first time I cornered with Clay’s brother, Jason Guida. Like a 285 lbs huge f*cking dude,” said Buchholz. “After Clay got stopped, doctors were coming in and corners were being kept outside the cage and everything. I turn around and one of the UFC stools was just shattered in 6 pieces. Jason ripped it to shreds or slammed it, and his brother just got stopped, and was flying off the handle emotionally.”

“We were walking in the back after, and Clay was walking in front,” added Buchholz. “Nate was walking out of the bathroom, and Clay said something to him, but Clay was discombobulated at that time too. He just said something to Nate. He was all like, ‘Man, I’m gonna f*ck you up again’ or something like that.”

As Buchholz explained, Diaz began to talk back and the larger Guida took offense when he said, “What, motherf*cker? Are you joking?”

“Then Jason and Nate got into it. I don’t know what happened, but Jason bull rushes Nate and tries to put him up against the wall,” said Buchholz. “Nate has got him in a clinch. Like 50 people from the UFC come rushing into this thing. I’m standing in the middle like, ‘Nooooo!'”

“It was going down. Clay was grabbing Jason, a bunch of people grabbing Nate. They were trying to f*cking kill each other for a good 30 or 40 seconds,” added Buchholz. “They get broken up, and Clay’s got Jason, people got Nate. I’m looking at Nate, like ‘f*ck! We weren’t trying to fight. I didn’t know what happened.'”

Rumor: Nate Diaz Got Into Backstage Brawl At UFC 199

It’s no secret that last weekend’s (Sat., June 4, 2016) UFC 199 from The Forum in Inglewood, California, was a veritable showcase of blockbuster MMA action, starting with Dan Henderson’s legendary knockout of Hector Lombard in his home state, to Michael Bisping’s own shocking knockout of Luke Rockhold, to finally the jaw-dropping announcement of Brock Lesnar’s

It’s no secret that last weekend’s (Sat., June 4, 2016) UFC 199 from The Forum in Inglewood, California, was a veritable showcase of blockbuster MMA action, starting with Dan Henderson’s legendary knockout of Hector Lombard in his home state, to Michael Bisping’s own shocking knockout of Luke Rockhold, to finally the jaw-dropping announcement of Brock Lesnar’s return at UFC 200.

And to top if all off, the confirmation of the rescheduled rematch between Nate Diaz and Conor McGregor was revealed for the main event of August 20’s UFC 202, with Diaz appearing in the crowd to elicit a huge response from his West Coast fans.

The polarizing star also made quite an impact backstage at the event as well, as a report surfaced from MMA Mad detailing a backstage brawl between Diaz and Jason Guida, brother of longtime veteran Clay Guida, who lost to Brian Ortega at UFC 199. Apparently Evan Rodner, the producer of ‘The Fighter and the Kid’ podcast was on hand to witness what happened:

‘It looked like Nate Diaz got into an altercation with Jason Guida, Clay Guida’s older brother’ Rodner stated. ‘I have no idea what it was over, but all of a sudden there were a ton of bodies entering the tunnels in the back (of the arena). ‘After the scuffle had ended, Diaz walked back into the arena as though nothing had happened. he didn’t give on single f*ck’.

UFC welterweight Nicolas Dalby also reportedly saw the altercation, releasing a photo of his reaction.

Obviously Diaz is willing to throw down with anyone at anytime – whether it’s in the cage or not – and his 2015 scuffle with lightweight Khabib Nurmagomedov and his team prove the Stockton slugger’s commitment to stay true to his hard-life roots.

With a blockbuster rematch with McGregor, whom he famously submitted at March’s UFC 196, coming up, Diaz’ star level is at an all-time high, and this isn’t something that’s going to necessarily hurt that in any way, shape, or form.

In fact, it could just help him grow even more popular as heads into his second straight million-plus-dollar payday.

Jens Pulver Won This Weekend, You Guys

Despite all the talk of Jens Pulver hanging up his four ounce gloves for good after failing to put up a win in his past six fights, it looks like Lil’ Evil ain’t goin’ out like that.

The former UFC lightweight champ was back in action this weekend, picking up his first win in over three years and improving his record to 23-14-1. Although his opponent, Mike "The Assassin" Lindquist at 6-19 was a far cry from the killers he used to face in the UFC and WEC, it’s good to see Jens get a win under his belt to boost his confidence. In Pulver’s defense, he was originally slated to take on 12-10 fighter Tom Ahrens, but his opponent bowed out of the bout in the weeks leading up to the event. For his part, Lindquist didn’t look too bad in the video above. Let’s just hope that training with Jeff Curran in Chicago has helped Pulver get his groove back and he doesn’t just become a regional can crusher.

Bellator Heavyweights and Wisconsin: Not So Boring If You’re Drunk

Last night, Bellator XXIX went to Milwaukee, Wisconsin (which I believe is a Native American word meaning “Dude, I Think We’re Lost”) and put on the first nationally-televised MMA event ever in the state. Bellator seems to thrive by signing fighters hungry for wins, and has kept the energy up by focusing on the lighter weight classes, so it was a bit of a curveball when a heavyweight tournament was announced. Many questioned if Bellator could pull enough quality heavyweights with the conditioning necessary to put on entertaining fights. Heavyweight fights in the Bellator promotion to this point have been a mixed bag, but we’re starting to see the cream rise so I’m optimistic that some fun stuff happens. A couple of loser-leaves-town matches round out the televised card, featuring some guys who’ve been bounced out of tournaments previously (and want back in), plus they snagged the tubby Guida brother to test the light heavyweight waters.

Come on in and I’ll fill you in on the latest Bellator results and news. I promise I’ll lay off the fat jokes this time.
