Gilbert Burns to fight Nate Diaz for 200k USD in jiu-jitsu match?


Time for some Gangster s**t! Gilbert Burns the number 2 ranked welterweight, is no stranger to calling out people on social media. In fact it has gone a long way in helping him win a number of fights. Despite, being one of the top ranked contenders in the welterweight division, he has recently called out ‘West Coast Gangster’ Nate Diaz for a different game.
Right from his young age, Gilbert Burns has been involved in jiu-jitsu, starting from when he was a kid – his father offered to fix his customer’s car in trade for three months of jiu-jitsu lessons. The man also won the silver medal at the World Jiu-Jitsu Championship.
Now, Gilbert Burns took to Twitter to call out the younger Diaz brother, also persuading him to put a price of a whopping 200k USD. The Sport?! – Jiu-Jitsu!
“Let’s see who is the real gangster” – Gilbert Burns to Nate Diaz
Earlier today, Gilbert tweeted, “So as my title fight is not scheduled yet, Let’s grapple! Let’s see who is the real gangster @NateDiaz209 so I put $200,000 you put $200,000 winner takes all at @ChaelSonnen@UFCFightPass what you say?” Gilbert Burns is an elite grappler – no wonder he is calling out Nate Diaz for a jiu-jitsu contest.
The man with the “Stockton Slap” is yet to respond and it is least likely that the flight would happen, although Nate hasn’t fought for more than a year. But, who do you think will have the edge, in case the fight materializes?
