Diaz highlighted the fact that he has the quickest win over the Lightweight contender. At UFC 196, he defeated ‘Notorious’ via submission in the 2nd round. Khabib Nurmagomedov submitted McGregor in round 4, whilst Floyd Mayweather triumphed via TKO in round 10.
Furthermore, the Welterweight fighter seemingly settled the debate saying, “P4p the baddest motherf***er here f**k all y’all.”

Diaz stepped up at short notice to replace Rafael dos Anjos and shocked the world. However, ‘Notorious’ returned the favor 5 months later at UFC 202. He triumphed in a majority decision win.
The calls for a Trilogy fight between the two have gained momentum in recent weeks. This is because events at UFC 249 have left ‘Notorious’ without a top tier Lightweight opponent for his July return.
