Nate Diaz gjorde bort sig i sitt FaceTime-samtal med Floyd Mayweather. Det menar Conor McGregor, som kallar honom en ”fucking bitch”.
Sedan UFC:s nuvarande lättviktsmästare Conor McGregor (21-3) revanscherade sig med en domslutsvinst över Nate Diaz (19-11) i augusti, så har Diaz varit ute efter en tredje och avgörande match.
Men enligt McGregor sköt han sig själv i foten när han satt och pratade i FaceTime med Floyd Mayweather (49-0 boxning) förra månaden.
“Nate’s a bitch. Nate’s a fucking bitch, and let me tell you why. I had the biggest respect for Nate – and I still have big respect for Nick, he’s out doing his thing – but when [Nate] took that phone call or that video call from Floyd Mayweather, and was like, ‘hello Floyd’s fans,’ he was Floyd’s bitch that night. I was like, you fucking pussy. You absolute pussy,” sa McGregor under helgens intervju med Ariel Helwani och fortsatte:
“When he had that video call, he should’ve been on the other end of that line, and when Floyd was saying ‘you made McGregor tapout,’ he’s like, ‘yeah I did,’ and Floyd is saying, ‘I’m going to finish the job’ — he should’ve said, ‘shut your fucking mouth or I’ll strangle you too,’ and then post that everywhere. And then all of a sudden, it would’ve been like, fuck Floyd. It would’ve be me and Nate again. But he was Floyd’s bitch that night. He was Floyd’s employee that night. So look, fuck Nate. Fuck Nick. Fuck the Diaz Brothers. And if you want to be down with the Diaz Brothers, then fuck you too.”
”It’s the biggest bitch move I’ve ever seen”
”The Notorious” menar att Diaz nu är ”längst bak i kön”.
“Look, he took a hell of a lot of smacks that night (at UFC 202),” sa han. “His face droops to the left. Look at him. Look real close at him. His face droops to the left now. You don’t take them left hammers all for 25 minutes and come back normal. He was not normal in that phone call.
“I was expecting a different situation, but I couldn’t believe it when I watched it. I watched like 10 minutes of it, and Floyd’s like, ‘hey Nate, say hello to my fans.’ You fucking bitch. It’s the biggest bitch move I’ve ever seen. So whatever, it is what it is. Now you’re back in the queue. Now you’re at the back of the queue.”
Kommer att mötas igen – i lättvikt
Trots sina starka uttalanden om rivalen försäkrar McGregor dock att de kommer att mötas igen, förr eller senare. Han förväntar sig att det då kommer röra sig om en titelmatch i lättvikt, snarare än i weltervikt som de första två matcherna.
“Don’t get me wrong, me and Nate will throw down again, 100 percent,” fortsatte han. “It’s one apiece. We’ll finish it off. I’d imagine it will be for the lightweight world title, 155. It could be like a skeleton wrapped in cling film. If his team is wise, they’ll talk him out of it. They’ll say, ‘you’ve made some money, your face is drooping to the left, your speech is slurred. Chill now. Enjoy the money.’ But they’re not the most intelligent people, so I’m sure me and Nate will go again.”
