Conor McGregor won’t be getting a chance to face big brother Nick any time soon.
To Nick Diaz, seeing his brother derail ‘The Notorious’ was just as sweet as any of the major scalps he has taken in the UFC.
Cage-side for Nate’s submission win over McGregor, Nick gave his reaction to a sensational result. He told Gareth A. Davies:
“I said two rounds.
“I said McGregor better do something. I’m watching and halfway through the second round I thought ‘If he’s not going to do something it’s not going to work out’.
“That’s why I said two rounds. When you are coming up weight and you’re fighting a tall guy, you have two rounds to make something happen.
“And if you do go on top, which [McGregor] didn’t have the ability to, then what are you going to do because he’s not a black belt.”
