He might have been submitted by Nate Diaz in the second round of their main event bout at March 5’s UFC 196, but featherweight champion Conor McGregor still threw some trash talk at the Stockton slugger with a descriptive photo yesterday that teased a different result in the rematch.

Understandably miffed at how McGregor’s first-ever loss has been portrayed, Diaz took to his own Instagram account to post a simple reply that featured only a telling image rather than any semblance of trash talk. Check it out:

Looking at Diaz vs. McGregor I from that point of view, it obviously seems as if Diaz dominated the bout, and when he hit the Irish superstar with a two-punch combination that wobbled him in the second frame, he obviously did just that by locking on the fight-ending rear-naked choke.

The facts of the matter have also riled up the mixed martial arts community, as many believe ‘Notorious’ should go back to featherweight to defend his title against Frankie Edgar or Jose Aldo considering he has zero defenses since he won it in December.

But McGregor had his own moments in the fight, particularly in the first round that he appeared to win, and with a more efficient utlization of his energy, a rematch could most certainly have a different outcome.

Diaz will most likely come into the bout supremely confident, however, and it seems McGregor’s already suspect ground game was called into serious question during the telling fight. A veteran of several more high-profile bouts as well, Diaz is also the bigger fighter on top of it all, a disadvantage McGregor saw go his way in extreme fashion during his dominant, undefeated run at featherweight.

Regardless, heat for their rematch is starting to build whether fans like it or not. And even if other fights might seem to make more sense for McGregor, let’s be honest — we’re all going to be tuning in at UFC 200.

Whether or not we watch a different result is up to McGregor.
