Myles Jury has been on quite a roll as of recently. Compiling an undefeated professional record of 14-0 with 5 of those wins coming inside the octagon, "The Fury" has beaten the likes of Michael Johnson, Ramsey Nijem, and most recently Diego Sanchez all in impressive fashion.
Now - Jury looks to turn his attention to Nate Diaz. According to BJPenn.com, the UFC offered him a fight against Nate Diaz, but the younger Diaz has yet to accept it, citing current contract issues that prevent him from getting the money he wants as the refusal for the bout.
Taking a page out of Diaz's book, Jury took to Twitter to respond to the fiasco.
Not one to shy away from a twitter war, Diaz responded to Jury by saying:
Diaz's last appearance in the octagon was in the main event of The Ultimate Fighter 18 finale where he earned himself a first round TKO over former two time opponent Gray Maynard. The win snapped Diaz's 2 fight losing streak and earned him a knockout of the night bonus in the process.
Jury was last seen at UFC 171 where he defeated another former title challenger in Diego Sanchez. After failing to win the Ultimate Fighter, "The Fury" has also racked up wins over Chris Saunders, Michael Johnson, Ramsey Nijem, and Mike Ricci.
We all know that Jury is ready for a fight, but it may be a while before we see him and the stockton slugger inside the octagon!

I've never really been a fan of Nate. IMO, he's nothing more than a Nick wannabe.
You can tell Nick's got some serious issues that make him act the way he does, but Nate just seems to imitate him.
