Conor Mcgregor vs. Nate Diaz - Have You Forgotten ?

in #ufc6 years ago (edited)


Picture Source

These two have already met in-side the UFC Octagon twice. With the first fight ending in Nate Diaz's favor. As a large underdog and late replacement he would surprise the world ( but not himself ) when he would submit Conor in the second round via rear-naked choke at UFC 196.

With the success of UFC 196 and the charisma that both Conor and Nate have, it was no surprise to fans worldwide when a rematch was put in place. At UFC 202 Conor would get his "revenge" and win via Decision in a very close and entertaining fight.

The Official Score Card --- (48-47, 47-47, 48-47)

Conor vs. Nate 3 was on the minds of many fans. It was almost a certainty to take place. Both previous events broke records and combined sold over 3 million PPV's. But instead we have Nate Diaz side lined and hasn't fought since his last bout with Conor. While Conor has moved on to winning the LW belt and crossing over into the boxing world facing one of boxing greats in Floyd Mayweather.

Have You Forgotten ?

With the recent events of khabib Nurmagomedov becoming the new LW Champion and events that took place in the lead up of UFC 223 ( Conor's Bus attack ). Have most casual fans forgotten about the potential trilogy fight between Conor and Nate ? I believe they have. Do you still want to see this fight ? Has it lost some of it's " luster " ? Who would win the trilogy ? At what weight class would it take place, 155lbs / 170lbs ? Give your opinions in the comment section below.

Have a great day!

Lets hope either of them fight anyone man haha, it's been so long.

Agreed, The problem is Diaz wants Conor money to fight and he isn't getting it unless he fights against Conor. On the other side of the coin we have Conor that wants Mayweather money to fight and UFC can't pay him that for an MMA bout.

Hahaha its a mess man, they're both already getting obscene money too.

The casual fan may have forgotten about this! I would tune in to see Nate fight pretty much anyone,.. I keep hearing that Nate is turning down fights from the UFC. Nate vs Conor III at 155 would be balling! and would bring Nate back into relevance.

All Nate needs is to accept a fight and he is right back into relevance. He waited on that Conor Trilogy for far too long. I think a fight vs. Al Iaquinta would be Nate's best option. Al laquinta is riding his 15 minutes of fame and Nate needs someone with a name that is beatable. Plus Al laquinta deserves another big name / money fight for stepping in on short notice against Khabib.
