Conor McGregor took another cheap shot at his long-time rival Nate Diaz by claiming that the American fighter would play Heisenberg’s son if there was ever a movie made about the Irishman’s life.
Earlier this week, Oscar-winning actor Jared Leto claimed that he would be keen on playing ‘The Notorious’ in a potential film in the near future. However, Nate Diaz has staked his claim on wanting to be a part of the movie, which is likely to see Leto star as Conor McGregor.
The Stockton slugger took to Twitter to reveal that his role in the potential film should be played by Hugh Jackman. That way, he can see Jackman, who played ‘Wolverine’ beat up Jared Leto in the film.

“Wolverine could play my part so we can see him beat Jared Letos A** that be fun”. The Irishman, however, disagreed and suggested that Heisenberg’s son in Breaking Bad should be played by his opponent.
McGregor quickly deleted the tweet as if appeared to have been offensive to those suffering from physical illness. However, Diaz responded by stating that McGregor would then be played by ‘Warwick Davis’, who is known for his small frame, and is around 5’6′.
McGregor and Diaz were involved in a couple of scraps in 2016 when the two were arguably at the peak of their UFC careers. Diaz first beat McGregor via submission in their first fight. However, the Irishman managed to get a decision win the second time they met in the Octagon, splitting the series 1-1.
While there have been talks of a trilogy fight, it has never really taken place despite the two MMA stars going back and forth on social media for the past few years. However, if the movie gets a green light, there could be a possibility of a legendary third fight to end the dramatic storyline.
