Conor McGregor Goes Nuts On Twitter, Blasts Nate Diaz For ‘Excuses’
‘Notorious’ is back at it again on Twitter, and this time he has exchanged in a war-of-words with FrontRowBrian. FRB made the following post Monday morning, referencing McGregor’s former opponent Nate Diaz’s size:
Look at the size of Nate Diaz. McGregor needs to go back to 145. pic.twitter.com/M6aTV1nPPy

McGregor, who’s confidence seems un-dwindled despite Diaz’s astonishing size, then responded to FRB:
I love it! Adapt and overcome.
I am coming in light and lean for my rematch and I will school this boy to the bell. https://t.co/MjEwxokIYK— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) May 2, 2016
This would then start a barrage of tweets from fans, which the Irishman was happy to respond to:
No. Last time I was eating four breakfasts and a dessert on the day of weigh in.
You will see.
You will all see. https://t.co/zfhFLEqEcA— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) May 2, 2016
McGregor also responded to a fan who criticized the Irishman’s suspect ground game:
On the floor he was swept and controlled.
When the tank goes, no amount of skill can save you.
You will see. https://t.co/vJP4k4qzwX— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) May 2, 2016
McGregor also believes he can cause the Stockton native’s gas tank to run out:
I respect the endurance athlete. A game of will.
But those who simply take part, will always be taken over. https://t.co/bysnazDaAT— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) May 2, 2016
It seems despite his removal from the UFC 200 card, where he was scheduled to rematch Diaz, McGregor still has his eyes set on Diaz for his next bout rather than a featherweight return.
McGregor is expected to take on the winner of Jose Aldo and Frankie Edgar for the interim 145-pound title at UFC 200. It seems, however, the Irishman has other plans for his Octagon return.
But it didn’t stop here, as McGregor continued his verbal assault, taking on Floyd Mayweather and talking more about Diaz…
I do not. I had the May/Pac record primed, ready to place MMA at the undisputed top. But it was not to be. #Press https://t.co/rmCxw6DX7y

He has made more excuses for the first 8 minutes of our fight than I have made for the last 2 minutes of our fight. https://t.co/pukpqnF1YJ

Meanwhile, Nate Diaz is chilling with Jean Claude Van Damme.
I look forward to my end of year unification bout. But like I said before.
These featherweights don’t understand… https://t.co/LzHsGsQP75— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) May 2, 2016
It is not safe to say. It is fact to say.
I hold PPV, Gate, TV, Fightpass and Embedded record.
Even Title fight KO. https://t.co/nqwoQSap9A— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) May 2, 2016
Incorrect. I beat it by 400,000 buys.
Which alone was 100,000 more buys than UFC 197 made IN TOTAL. #KillShot https://t.co/HzidAJQ3Iu— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) May 2, 2016
Call me No press.Most press.
