Nate Diaz did not go easy on Conor McGregor for his suggestion of creating a special belt
UFC welterweight fighter Nate Diaz finally has his revenge on former ‘champ champ’ Conor McGregor for making fun of his chair during an interview.
The Irishman suggested earlier this week that the promotion should have a ‘Conor McGregor belt. He said it does not matter what division it is, he is always fighting for the McGregor belt.
The Irishman even suggested how the belt should be made; with rose gold and rubies.
And you just knew ‘The Stockton Slugger’ will pounce on this opportunity to make fun of him. Which he did.
Diaz took to his Twitter account to joke about how silly this idea was and went on to suggest some ludicrous modifications for the belt.
“Ufc can call it the I get my a** beat then choked out every other fight championship belt They can make it yellow gold or rose gold with rubies a diamond ? Let’s link Ufc open for suggestions maybe put a leprechaun face on there”
Diaz revisited McGregor’s last few results in his taunt and how he has succumbed in the championship fight against Khabib Nurmagomedov.
But ‘The Notorious One’ could have actually been fighting for the real UFC belt this summer had he beaten Dustin Poirier at UFC 257.
He lost to ‘The Diamond’ in January and was immediately granted a rematch because he beat him at UFC 178. And because of that, Dana White let Michael Chandler and Charles Oliveira fight the lightweight title.
It is most likely that the winner of the trilogy fight gets to fight the winner of Chandler vs. ‘Du Bronx’.
That title fight is, of course, the main event at UFC 262, which also features Nate Diaz in the first five-round non-title co-main event bout in the promotion’s history.
