Much of the video coverage for this weekend’s (Sat., March 5, 2016) blockbuster UFC 196 has been understandably focused on star featherweight champion Conor McGregor, but recently, a video surfaced of his opponent Nate Diaz that may or may not be a telling prognostication for the short notice bout.

In the short spot that mainly focuses on Diaz’ training from MMA Uncensored, the popular Stockton slugger can be seen admitting that he ‘might get worked’ by the powerful Irish champion. While that’s an obvious possibility given the timing and odds of the heated affair, it’s also quite odd to hear the normally standoffish Diaz say such a thing.

Watch it here and decide if it’ll have any impact on the fight:

Heading into this weekend’s (Sat., March 5, 2016) awaited welterweight clash between Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz in the main event of UFC 196, one of the biggest questions surrounding the blockbuster bout was whether or not Diaz would be in good enough shape after taking the fight on short notice.

UFC president Dana White assured fans that Diaz had been training for a triathlon and was in phenomenal shape, but there were many online who questioned the authenticity of that statement.

Today, however, some evidence has arrived that would at least suggest Diaz may be the elite shape needed to implement his patented high-volume ‘Stockton Slap’ boxing style, as Twitter user Alejandra Sevani posted a photo of Diaz looking in great shape for the fight in response to Octagon commentator Brian Stann’s speculation. Check it out right here and decide for yourself:

Stann agreed that Diaz is in great shape, signifying a good sign for the electric bout from Las Vegas:

So it appears that the questions about Diaz’ conditioning have been answered, at least for now. Does that make you give him any more of a chance against the bulldozing McGregor?
