Nate Diaz Pressures Conor McGregor: “I’m Coming For You”
Following his decision win over Michael Johnson at December 19’s UFC on FOX 17 from Orlando, polarizing lightweight Nate Diaz made headlines by infamously calling out UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor with an expletive-filled post-fight speech that was censored for television.
Based on his recent track record alone, Diaz probably doesn’t deserve the fight, as there are high-level competitors in Frankie Edgar, Rafael dos Anjos, and even Jose Aldo waiting for a shot at ‘The Notorious.’ However, Diaz brings a ton of loyal fans with him, and he has deemed his ability to sell a fight with colorful trash talk as the main reason why he should get the fight.
Diaz insists that the numbers don’t lie, and he continued to press McGregor for a potential fight earlier this morning online, posting with a nice muscle flex seemingly while on a mall escalator. Check it out:
