Nate Diaz says no to McGregor trilogy fight

[HHJ]

It gets less and less interesting as time goes on. Conor should take a step down,but should fight someone new.

 

[BowserGiga]

Nate gave prime Conor hell and arguably beat him twice

Crippled washed up Conor would get killed

 

[Bigmoney4166]

He's lying

 

[Ace70 V2]

Nope. Not interested. But Nate's reasoning that he has work to do is bullshit. They are both in the same boat. Not winning and still trying to call the shots.

 

[TITS]

That's a lot to make out of a 53 second interview. No actual news here.

 

[OverhandRightKayo]

Nate III or Poirier IV next. Hard to decide which I would rather see first but hopefully both happen.

@Young Calf Kick look at this dude bro

 

[Garnet_StrongerThanYou]

Maybe, but don’t really care, I’m tired of both of them..

This. MMA needs to move on from drama and freakshows.

 

[FIghtxIQ]

Most likely due to the time frame. It would make Nate Diaz have to wait for his recovery and return fight outcome before they entertain the trilogy fight, since they are still trying to get Conor in the title picture. Nate wants to be a free agent asap, he doesn't want to wait. He wants his Jake Paul fight.

 

[Swarthy]

LoL he wants it and he wants those $’s!!!

 

[campbecc]

He's just saying that so he can ask for more money.

 

[Cooliox]

Nate trolling hard <Lmaoo>

 

[Epicman1324]

Nate would finish him in a round at this point. So yeah, I'd love to see that.

 

[TRUS8888]

"Hes got work to do"

Translation:

"I would love that fight (money), now I just need to provoke Conrad into taking it by undermining him".

Exactly this. "My years of wanting the fight havn't work so I'm going to try a different approach"

nate is the most disingenuinous guy in UFC

he would absolutely jump at the offer if given to him..

 

[KO Shotz]

Conor has two fights left. A Michael Chandler fight & then the Diaz trilogy.

 

[jsbx45]

Haha Nate wants this fight. A) he has way more work to put in than Conor, B) this is a fight he could actually win if he put in said work and Conor didn't, and most importantly C)$$$$$. You never know how either one of these loose cannons is gonna fire though. Erratically at best.

 

[w00t]

"He's got a lot of work to do" says the guy that's got a lot of work to do.

 

[Kryptt]

Not anymore really but I'd still watch...

 

[ryun253]

When was the last time diaz won a fight lmao hes the definition of a can

As if record matters lol. Nate could lose his next 5 fights & still get paid more than UFC champs.

 

[Sweater of AV]

Don't have much interest in it. Nate should fight Dustin or Tony.

The UFC likely wants Nate-Conor 3 though, along with a shiny new contract full of complete nonsense for Nate to sign. Hope Nate keeps moving towards getting the hell out of there.

 

[don't ask]

I like Nate, but don't want to see Conor fight or get another pay check.
