Nate Diaz medverkade under gårdagen på ett extrainsatt ”The MMA Hour”, där han bland annat sade sitt om det omtalade mötet mellan Floyd Mayweather och Conor McGregor. Diaz menade på att han skulle besegra båda dessa kämpar i boxning, på en och samma kväll.
Här kan ni läsa vad Diaz hade att säga:
I hear all this Mayweather-McGregor sh*t, and I feel like that’s just a big old publicity stunt to hide the fact that he got his ass whooped.
That’s exactly what I think. Because every time I hear more about it, I get a call. I’m like, hey, I call your bluff. Fight that mother*cker then. I’ll be right here. I’m the only one out of the three of us that can say I’ll whip both of their asses in one night, because Conor can’t say that. Floyd definitely cannot say that.
You just got boxed up. You didn’t get tapped out. He got beat up and shot. And I hear Mayweather saying [McGregor] wins most of his fights by fighting stand-up. I’m like, not with me. He was losing the stand-up part. He took a shot, that was his way out. I just think it’s all fake and phony, and people should recognize that.
That fool McGregor gassed out in six minutes and panicked or something. I’m like, you panicked? Don’t panic. You can’t panic. With Floyd Mayweather, you’d get knocked out. That’s amateur style boxing. If I go in and box somebody in a boxing ring and they’re good for three rounds, four rounds, and then they just wear off and start losing completely, that’s amateur sh*t. You’ve got to be in there for 12 rounds ready to rock and roll the whole time.
Nate och McGregor var tänkte att mötas under UFC 200, men då Conor inte höll med om organisationens presschema plockades han bort från matchkortet. Nu försöker UFC få till ett nytt möte mellan de båda kämparna, och det ryktas även om en säsong ”The Ultimate Fighter” med dessa två som tränare.
