We are literally just hours away from one of the biggest fights in UFC history at UFC 202 as Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz go at it for the second time this year at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

After somewhat of a tepid build up over the last few months, the past three days has seen the rivalry explode between the two again and they been at each other's throats all week.

The UFC 202 fight week has witnessed multiple altercations between the two SBG Ireland and Stockton 209 Skrap Pack entourages following Wednesday's pre-fight press conference which descended into chaos and ultimately insult and bottle throwing.

Since then the two camps been kept well apart from one another though it's taken an army of UFC officials and even some of Las Vegas's finest police officers to keep both Diaz and McGregor apart at times. 

Though any physical trouble has been avoided since Wednesday, both halves of the main event have seized multiple opportunities to send the other a verbal message. 

Last evening, a very fired up Nate Diaz took full advantage of his post weigh-in interview with FS1 on Friday to send the current UFC featherweight champion one final message before they meet this evening.

"You should have brought an army motherf**ker," Diaz said. "You should have brought everybody because it's gonna be down if we see you. Kill or be killed. 

"We weighed in, we faced off and now it's time to go, so it's all good. I'm expecting a fight. Tune in, we're gonna get down." 

"You should have brought an army motherf**ker," an even more worked up Diaz said. "Should have brought everybody because it's goin' down if we see you."
