American professional mixed martial artist Nate Diaz has had a debt to settle with Dwayne Johnson for several years. Supporting Diaz’s rival in the ring, the professional martial artist has stated multiple times that he wants revenge on Dwayne Johnson too.
After winning a fight, the UFC fighter talked about his feud with The Rock and his friend Jorge Masvidal (whom The Rock supports). Stating that Johnson is not a person who should hand out the BMF championship belt, Nate Diaz publicly spoke too much against the Jumanji actor.
Dwayne Johnson Gets Publicly Called Out By Nate Diaz
Well, it isn’t something every day that you get called out by a professional mixed martial artist but for Dwayne Johnson, it has been pretty common. Nate Diaz has had a feud with The Rock for several years now since he keeps supporting Diaz’s rival in the ring.
Nate Diaz went on to spit at The Rock’s sneaker sponsorship by saying that the shoes “f–king suck” and has reignited their feud by publicly humiliating Dwayne Johnson. Taking to Twitter, Diaz publicly challenged The Rock to a fight.
Im only going to fight the rock
Otherwise I’m goood— Nathan Diaz (@NateDiaz209) September 21, 2022
This isn’t the first time that the UFC fighter has spat at Dwayne Johnson. Back in 2019, Diaz had stated that The Rock is no one to hand out the BMF championship belt to Jorge Masvidal and instead, Mike Tyson should have been there to perform the winning ceremonies.
Mike Tyson Should Have Been There Instead of The Rock
Back in 2019, Jorge Masvidal won the BMF championship and Dwayne Johnson wrapped the belt around his friend. After losing the match, Nate Diaz stated that it should have been Mike Tyson who should have been there, not The Rock.
“F**k The Rock too man, that motherf**ker over here playing me. See him over there smiling with Masvidal. Should have had Mike Tyson handing out a belt if anybody. I don’t give a f*** about no belt anyway. But he can get it too. He’s on that side, f**k him. I’m on the west coast side.”
Diaz further continued,
“Mike Tyson should have been here anyway, he’s the baddest man on the planet right? He should have been the one. You guys caught me at a bad time. The Rock’s cool, I like Ballers, but he picked the wrong side so he can get his ass whooped too.”
Nate Diaz recently lost a fight with YouTuber Jake Paul as judges unanimously decided that the fight had been kind of a one-sided victory. Dwayne Johnson has not commented on Diaz’s remarks as he seems to be busy with his Hollywood career.
