Chimaev was involved in verbal spats with McGregor and Diaz before - and even claimed that he attempted to fly to Ireland to confront McGregor.

After the comments and actions of the Dubliner during the build-up to his now legendary defeat to Khabib Numagomedov, that was back in 2018.

Chimaev claims that he was insulted by McGregor’s comments about Russia and that he arrived at the airport, but instead was locked up for eight hours. Then he was sent home.

This comes after UFC headquarters leaked a few match-ups that revealed Chimaev was set to face Diaz at UFC 276 on July 2.

However, that fight will not take place after Diaz claims Chimaev's recent marital problems.

On social media, he wrote: "He had visa problems, was overweight, and now his b **** is off getting married rather than fighting wtf?" I want to fight a real fighter as soon/July.

Diaz's comments were rebuffed by Chimaev, who replied: "You are funny. Are you high?" It looks like you have been smoking."
