Chiefly, ‘The Notorious’ puffed out his chest on Twitter when journalist, Chamatkar Sandhu, tweeted a throwback about the aforementioned fight. However, Nate Diaz wasn’t having any of that and went on to fire heavy artillery towards the Irishman.

Furthermore, Diaz also slid in a jab at the fact that it’s only McGregor’s profile that brings him immediate rematches. ‘The Notorious’ last fought at UFC 257 in January and was soundly defeated by Dustin Poirier via TKO. However, despite the decisive loss, Conor McGregor is on his way to getting a rematch in the summer of 2021.
