Nate Diaz has hit back at UFC president Dana White for claiming he wasn't offered a fight with Tyron Woodley.

"They asked if I would fight Woodley and I said, 'Well, I'd like a three-month camp.'
"I told them I'd fight him on shorter notice, but would send them what I wanted in the contract. It was nothing out of the norm.

"Then I saw in the media, the UFC said they never approached me about it. I was like, 'F*** it then. I wasn't the one asking for the fight.'"
