It’s not tough to understand why Nate Diaz doesn’t think Conor McGregor’s smack talk is going to be all that effective heading into their supposed rematch at July’s UFC 200, but that obviously isn’t going to stop ‘The Notorious’ from stirring the pot, and it appears he’s already getting started.
With the rematch still not officially confirmed by the UFC, McGregor took to Instagram just a few moments ago to post a picture of himself slugging a bloodied Diaz with a caption advising Diaz, who won the fight by second-round submission, to enjoy his win. Check it out:
While there’s little doubt that McGregor was indeed landing a ton of powerful punches on the youngest Diaz brother in the first round, it also became clear that the brash talk talker couldn’t sustain the pace, evident by his fading when Diaz nailed him with a perfect one-two. From there, it became a foregone conclusion that McGregor would be thoroughly handled on the ground as he was carved up by Diaz’ black belt-level Brazilian jiu-jitsu skills.
The result has left fans wondering why they would reschedule a fight that had such a decisive result the first time around, and obviously the issue of McGregor defending his featherweight title looms large, but the promotion understandably wants him to avenge his only UFC loss to regain the luster that made him the UFC’s biggest star.
He certainly could do just that, but starting the trash talk battle with a fighter who made submitting him look easy on days’ notice only three weeks ago may just not hold any water. Does it with you?
