NATE DIAZ revealed that he almost "beat up" UFC President Dana White at a Las Vegas nightclub.
Over the years, the youngest Diaz brother has had a colorful relationship with the MMA mogul.
Nate Diaz and Dana White haven't always been on the same page in UFC.
White and the UFC brass were accused by the fan favorite of "slow rolling” him last year.

Diaz hasn’t been able to see White or UFC brass in the past year. He accuses the promotion of slow rolling him and trying to extend his contract as long as possible.
However, the feud with White isn't his first. He almost gave Stockton's patented Stockton slap after a row many moons back.
ESPN reported that he almost beat Dana White in a club once here, and you should have seen it.
"He was talking s**t, and I was arguing. I was mad at him. I should not have been mad at his, I understand.
"It was a long, long time ago when Gilbert [Melendez] did The Ultimate Fighter.
"Everybody was done with the show, so we went to the club where Dana and the others were having an afterparty. Dana was then all drunk.
"He was all, What's the up, motherf r?' I was like What's the up?' He then started telling me about 'What do YOU want?'
"I was like, "What the f**k do I want?" You get more money and better fights than anyone else.
"It's because, though I was at the time on the destination for a name, it was not my fault."
White, a veteran fighter promoter, played down the incident earlier in this week.
On Tuesday, he said with a smile on his face: "Allegedly."Allegedly. We were drinking."
The 37-year-old Diaz will be the last fighter on his contract at UFC 279 Las Vegas, where he'll take on Khamzat Chimaev.
After a 15-year tenure in MMA's premier promotion White is sad to see the fan favorite go.
He said about Diaz, "He's fought unbelievable wars for us. He has been an integral part of the company for a long time.
"What could I ask Nate Diaz more?"
"If Nate is willing to fight this last fight, I wish him all of the best. It was fun.
"It has been a lot of fun to deal [with Nate Diaz and his brother Nick Diaz. ]"
