Weâ€™ve heard the rumors floating for a couple days, but today a credible source I know has confirmed the story, so weâ€™re comfortable bringing it to you.

The two lightweights apparently started the feud by exchanging heated e-mails talking trash. You can follow some of the back-story on the

Clementi (posting under the name â€œNo Loveâ€) actually weighs in with some reported email transcripts between Guillard and himself.
This history of e-trash talk apparently came to a head last weekend, where at a local fight event, Guillard reportedly walked up to Clementi and punched him during an exchange of words.
According to reports, Guillard walked over, Clementi put out his hand for a shake and asked, â€œWhatâ€™s up with those e-mails?â€ Apparently, before Clementi could finish, Guillard punched him in the face but didnâ€™t noticeably hurt him. The two fighters squared off, but nothing happened, and it eventually got broken up.
Guillard then apparently threatened to shoot Clementi, stating, â€œNext time Iâ€™ll hit you with my pistol,â€ which consequently lead to him being tossed out of the fights.
According to sources close to one of the fighters, the two lightweights are now in discussions with UFC matchmaker Joe Silva in hopes of setting up an official fight in the Octagon.
While these type of personal rivalries usually make for great fights, Iâ€™m not sure that Silva will grant a matchup between the rising Guillard and Clementi unless, perhaps, Guillard needs a rebound fight if he loses to Stevenson in April.

lol, I really hope they set up this fight just for some reason im not suprised at Melvin
