Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz have one of the fiercest rivalries in the MMA.
In 2016, Diaz was able to upset McGregor while he was in his prime with a second-round submission. McGregor immediately scheduled a rematch for later that year, and won that fight with a five round decision. It was widely considered as one of the greatest UFC fights of all-time, and most definitely lived up to the hype.

While it has been a while since those classic fights, McGregor and Diaz continue to trash talk each other, and one would think that a trilogy bout could be possible in the near future. The latest development in the Diaz-McGregor rivalry occurred over the weekend, when Conor accused Nate of taking PEDs.
Usada tested me right before this. Blood and urine. That’s twice this week. I don’t blame them, I’m a animal. What irks me tho is there is never an announcement of athletes caught anymore? This means –

.@JeffNovitzkyUFC how come the public isn’t told about positive tests anymore? How after the Nate Diaz steroid debacle, where he produced his own nutrition companies tainted multivitamin, was instantly cleared prior to a mega money fight, are we now in the dark on test results?

Diaz was quick to respond to Conor McGregor, throwing shade all over his training system, while also lamenting the result of their first bout.

This set off a whole back-and-forth between Conor and Nate on social media.
Silly goose, that was pre @McGregorFast.
McGregor FAST was created in the aftermath of that fight.

Both McGregor and Diaz have scheduled fights coming up. McGregor has a rematch with Dustin Poirier, and Diaz will be fighting Leon Edwards. After that, I think it’s entirely possible that we get a Conor McGregor-Nate Diaz 3.
That would be a lot of fun.
