Nate Diaz may well have accidentally found his next fight - in the form of the guy whose beer he spilt at the weekend. Take a look at the footage below, alongside the furious owner of the pint's reaction:
If you don't know what we're talking about, the decorated UFC fighter made headlines at the Jake Paul versus Tyrone Woodley fight on 18 December after footage surfaced showing him scaring a fan into spilling his beer.

In the clip, Diaz walks past an unsuspecting punter holding a pint of beer before going to pretend to hit the man, who naturally pulls back, causing the poor fella to drop his drink... everywhere.
However, little did the 36-year-old - who has a record of 20 wins and 13 defeats in MMA - know that the man he surprised is something of a fighter himself.
Carrese Archer is the man who lost his drink and it turns out he isn't happy about it at all. It also turns out he has an MMA record of his own and is currently fighting in the bare-knuckle boxing organization BYB.
Archer's 2-6 record across the lower echelons of MMA admittedly isn't as impressive as Diaz' but that doesn't mean he's not up for a scrap - at the very least to get back the price of his beer.

Taking to Instagram, Archer addressed the incident and called out Diaz, before urging UFC booker Dana White to make the fight happen.
"Hello, world. I seen all the laughter, everybody laughing, haha. Same thing that make you laugh make you cry," he said in the Instagram video.
"Nate Diaz is a bona fide female dog. He had the police with him, had the security protecting him, and you gonna flinch at me and try to sucker punch me when I'm not paying attention? And y'all think this man is a gangster?
"I think the world is f****d up and confused around here when they think about what is a real gangster. I'm a real street dog. I'm in the streets. Believe that.

"Anybody that know me know how 'One Punch' rockin', and we don't do s**t while the police there."
Turning his attention to Dana White - who'd posted the Diaz clip to more than 5.5 million views - Archer said: "Dana White, I seen you made a post. And you laughed, and you thought it was funny.
"I bet you won't think it's funny you sign me for one fight, and I knock Nate Diaz the f**k out".
Diaz's actual next opponent is unknown, although Dustin Poirier has been rumoured. Furthermore, his appearance at Paul vs. Woodley is only likely to fan the flames that a future bout with the Youtube star-turned-fighter could be on the horizon.

Paul knocked out Woodley in the weekend's bout in the sixth round to claim his second victory this year over the former UFC man.
