Brandon Royval, the top-ranked UFC flyweight fighter from the United States, shared details about an altercation between his fellow American Nate Diaz and the team of lightweight champion Islam Makhachev from Russia.

In early December, a video surfaced showing Diaz throwing a water bottle at Makhachev.

A water bottle almost hit me when I was with Nate Diaz. Diaz is walking in front of me. The water bottle f—king zooms by my head. That’s another thing people didn’t see. Diaz did not throw that first water bottle. The first water bottle was thrown at him. I know exactly who threw the water bottle. I seen it. It was the Flyweight Russian kid [Tagir Ulanbekov].

As a reminder, on January 19 in Los Angeles (USA), Islam Makhachev will defend his title against Arman Tsarukyan in the main event of UFC 311.

The first bout between the fighters, held in April 2019 at UFC Fight Night 149, ended with Makhachev winning by unanimous decision. The 33-year-old Makhachev has 26 wins and one loss, while the 28-year-old Tsarukyan boasts 22 wins and three losses.
