A physical altercation erupted between the camps for Jake Paul and Nate Diaz during Thursday's press conference for their upcoming fight.
The two were exchanging words prior to the face-off photo op when Diaz started engaging with Paul's mild-mannered manager Nakisa Bidarian. When the former UFC fighter got incredibly close to Bidarian, their respective security guards stepped in. One guard shoved another and a brawl ensued.
Here are two additional clips from different vantage points filmed by those in attendance:
Tensions were already high prior to the brawl, especially after Derek from Betr Media was given the mic and capped off his apology by declaring that he "can't wait to watch Nate knock you the fuck out."
According to Sporting News senior writer Andreas Hale, Derek was held back by Paul's father.
Jake Paul returns to the ring for the first time since his split decision loss to Tyson Fury in February. It was his first loss in seven matches. After posting a 22-13-0 mixed martial career record, Diaz will make his boxing debut.
The two will square off in a 10-round bout in Dallas on Saturday.
