Nick Rodriguez has recently challenged Nicholas Meregali for a BJJ match – or even an MMA fight!
He had previously issued a $50,000 challenge to his former teammate Gordon Ryan, which was declined.
Now, turning his attention to Ryan’s New Wave teammate, Nicholas Meregali, Rodriguez has taken to The B-Team’s YouTube channel to share his opinion.
Rodriguez didn’t hold back in his criticism of Meregali:
It’s kind of cringe to watch him do interviews because he’s trying his hardest to act like Gordon but he is not, he is not Gordon.
He’s trying to preach authenticity is everything.
I guess he’s kind of authentic in the sense that he’s a douchebag.
The reason behind Rodriguez’s challenge stems, it seems, from a previous agreement for a match at a Who’s Number One event – which, according to Rodriguez, Meregali backed out of:
Meregali, let’s have a match. You keep running from me.
We had a contract signed with Flograppling Who’s Number One and you backed out. You signed the contract and then two days later you’re like wow, you’re not gonna win this match.
You probably talked to your team, coach is like: “Hey, this ain’t gonna go well for you.” And then you backed out of our contract.That’s pu**y s*it, my guy.
What’s more, Rodriguez is open to any form of combat to settle this rivalry:
Let’s have a match. Whatever ruleset, whatever promotion – UFC fight pass, Flograppling – let’s get down and dirty.
And if that’s not good enough for you, maybe we do an MMA fight. Maybe we hop in the cage and I’ll introduce you to my right and my left.That sounds pretty cool. You’re a confident guy, Mr. Meregali, so let’s confidently do battle.
I would love nothing more than to make you bleed.
