THE UFC 202 pre-fight press conference may have stirred up a few more pay-per-view buys for Saturday night, but that money might go right back out the door for a lawsuit that's already in motion. According to UFC president Dana White, the wheels are in motion for a lawsuit after Nate Diaz and Conor McGregor started launching water bottles, cans and even coffee cups at each other during the press conference in Las Vegas. The volatile situation exploded when Diaz left his seat and walked out of the press conference before tossing his water bottle in McGregor's direction. "The word is in this thing somebody was injured, so there's going to be a lawsuit," White told TMZ on Thursday. There were rumours after the press conference was over that at least part of the madness that unfolded was premeditated by Diaz and his team after he got up from the table and left just minutes following McGregor's arrival.
