The madness of UFC 196 is still just settling in, as we saw one champion dethroned in epic fashion, and another beaten in a division he put on 25 pounds to fight in. First up, the meat on the bone, Conor McGregor vs. Nate Diaz. The main event in Las Vegas, Nevada did not disappoint, as the two trash talking welterweights put it on the line in a two-round thriller. In the first round at least, it looked as though McGregor’s striking was on point, but perhaps he got overconfident coming in to the second frame.
Diaz began landing with regularity in the second round, and McGregor’s legs locked out from a big left hand. All of a sudden, the confidence sunk out of ‘The Notorious,’ and it was replaced with panic as the fight went to the mat. Diaz quickly snaked his way to the full mount where McGregor tried to shrimp escape. Forgetting to tie up the leg of Diaz with his own, he gave up his back to the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt after eating some ground and pound, it was as good as over from that moment.
The rear naked choke locked up, and before going to sleep like Holly Holm did in the main event, McGregor chose to tap out. The 209 rejoiced, including Nate’s older brother Nick Diaz, who’s hilarious reaction was captured by Karyn Bryant of MMA Heat, check it out:
