Nate Diaz takes a shot at Dustin Poirier after 'The Diamond' reveals plans to become the undisputed UFC lightweight champion

The long-running rivalry between Nate Diaz and Dustin Poirier is unlikely to end anytime soon, judging by their latest Twitter interaction.

Poirier recently posted a tweet insinuating that his next fight would be for the UFC lightweight title.

The tweet reads:

“Undisputed World Champion”

Nate Diaz responded to the tweet by posting a photo of Dustin Poirier getting choked out by Khabib Nurmagomedov in their UFC lightweight title fight. Diaz’s tweet reads:

“Undisputed choked artist”

Dustin Poirier then chose to subtly address his ongoing feud with Nate Diaz by jestingly suggesting that he’s avoiding a fight against the 36-year-old.

In response to a Twitter user who took a jibe at his “Undisputed World Champion” tweet, Poirier indicated that he’s the Undisputed World Champion of dodging Nate Diaz.

Check out the former interim UFC lightweight champion's reply to the Twitter user's jibe below:

Is a Dustin Poirier vs. Nate Diaz fight on the horizon?

Dustin Poirier and Nate Diaz were scheduled to fight one another in a lightweight bout at UFC 230 back in November 2018. However, the fight didn’t come to fruition, as Poirier withdrew from the event due to an injury.

Nate Diaz later alluded to Dustin Poirier possibly having dodged a fight against him. Both stars have been taking verbal jabs at each other ever since. Their rivalry was reinvigorated in January of this year after Poirier bested their mutual rival, Conor McGregor, in a rematch.

Dustin Poirier once again beat Conor McGregor in a trilogy matchup this July. Needless to say, this fueled rumors of a potential showdown between Nate Diaz and Poirier.

However, the belief is that Dustin Poirier is likely to face UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveira for the title next. Meanwhile, Nate Diaz’s next opponent and comeback date remain unclear.
