Without competing since 2021, Conor McGregor is back in full force in combat sports. Last Saturday (16), the Irishman had his return at UFC 329 , on July 11, in Las Vegas (USA), made official by Dana White and has already started promoting the rematch by provoking Max Holloway . However, the MMA star doesn't only have ammunition to attack 'Blessed'. So much so that 'Notorious' took the opportunity to turn against Nate Diaz , who was in action on the same day.
One of the stars of Netflix's first MMA event, the veteran suffered so much at the hands of Mike Perry that he bled profusely and ended up being knocked out in the second round via medical stoppage and corner intervention. Since Diaz had a performance well below expectations, McGregor didn't hold back and taunted him, reigniting the rivalry.

In the UFC, the athletes have faced each other twice and are tied. Therefore, many would like to see the McGregor vs. Diaz trilogy happen and still hope for it to happen. In fact, according to 'Notorious' McGregor, the tiebreaker didn't happen only because the American did everything to avoid it. Thus, the always confident Irishman implied that he would easily defeat his weakened rival and that he will not leave him alone.
"Now I understand why Nate didn't accept the fight (laughs). Anyway, may the day come soon when I can get my hands on you. You skinny, piss-jet," wrote the UFC star on his official 'X' account.
