On Tuesday, February 23, UFC Lightweight Champion Rafael dos Anjos had to pull out of his March 5th fight against Conor McGregor.
The organization moved quickly to find a replacement. Nate Diaz stepped up with 10 days notice to take the fight, which will be a non-title bout held at 170 lbs.
At today's press conference the two engaged in an epic war of words. (Watch it in full here https://youtu.be/x0Ze86N21ro)
McGregor called Diaz a "cholo gangsta from the hood" and mocked his side job as a kid's jiu-jitsu coach.
"He makes gun signs with the right hand and animal balloons with the left hand," McGregor said.
Diaz responded by accusing his opponent and every other fighter in the UFC of being on steroids.
"Everybody's on steroids ... the whole UFC. You, dos Anjos, [Anthony] Pettis," Diaz told McGregor.
The Irishman fired back by reminding Nate that his teammates Jake Shields and Gilbert Melendez had both been suspended for failed drugged tests in the past.
"You're on steroids," Nate repeated a second time.
McGregor vehemently denied the accusation. For the record he has never failed a drug test.

Meanwhile, dos Anjos tweeted out a photo of his broken foot and wondered why McGregor picked Diaz, who might not be in tip top shape for the fight instead of Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone, who has had two fights in the last three months and is guaranteed to be in shape.
The same thing happened last year when Jose Aldo pulled out of a fight. McGregor instead fought and easily defeated Chad Mendez, who stepped in on short notice.
ToThe Notorious One'scredit he eventually did eventually fight Aldo, once the Brazilian healed from a rib injury. He knocked him out in 13 seconds to win theFeatherweight ChampionshipatUFC 194.

The vibe of the single from Hip-Hop artist AM Early Morning can be compared to the music from conscious rappers of the 90s and 2000s. “Dirty Whiskers”, a term that refers to Rats or Snitches. Is the newest release from the Chicago artist, that takes listeners on an adventure through the city streets, from the artist's perspective. Accompanied by the soothing sounds of brass trumpets, the artist has created an anthem to introduce us to a fresh, conscious sound.

Video After The Jump
Kanye West performed at 1 Oak in Los Angeles on Tuesday, February 23. Mid-show he took time to clear the air about a couple of things that have been bothering him.
"MediaTakeOut, never stop trying to make up stories," he told the crowd. "And my wife got Amber to (inaudible). That bitch ain't never stick her fingers in my ass. I don't play like that!"
West was responding to an Amber Rose's tweet from January when she called him a #FingersInTheBootyAssBitch, during his feud with her ex-husband, Wiz Khalifa.
The rapper continued his rant by calling Taylor Swift a liar.
On the song "Famous" off of his "The Life of Pablo" album he raps, "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex. Why? I made that bitch famous."
West claims to have gotten the singer's approval prior to releasing the song, but her camp denies that.
"I called Taylor. I said Taylor I talked to my wife about it. And I said how do you feel about this line Taylor? I said Taylor I feel like you and me might have sex and she said, 'Oooh, I like that line.' Then she won her [Grammy] and said something completely different. She not cool no more. She had 2 seconds to be cool and she fucked it up!"

The Sparta Combat League is a small mixed martial arts promotions company based out of Colorado. Apparently they have no age limit or morals because at a recent event they allowed 68-year old Ann Perez fight a 24-year old opponent named Laura Dettman.
The bout went exactly like you would have expected. Perez lost by technical knockout when was quickly taken to the ground by Dettman and punched in the face repeatedly until the referee stopped the fight. https://youtu.be/rccaw66HSzs
Colorado has to have a boxing commission. Whoever sanctioned this freak show should be fired.
The Sparta Combat League is a disgrace. I had never heard of them before now and hope they go belly up very soon.
