Nate Diaz is not impressed by Conor McGregor.
Nate Diaz is … not impressed.
After Conor McGregor took to Twitter on Friday to request yet another custom “McGregor belt,” his longtime rival Diaz felt the need to chime in and put the Irishman on blast.
Diaz (20-12 MMA, 15-10 UFC) mocked McGregor (22-5 MMA, 10-3 UFC) on Twitter, but then told the UFC to oblige to his wishes, because he thinks McGregor is in clear need of a confidence boost going into his July 10 trilogy bout with Dustin Poirier at UFC 264.
Check out the exchange below (via Twitter):
Let’s do two belts actually @ufc. Champ Champ always does two. We’ve got “The McGregor Belt” currently in creation, and now we’ve got the all new “RMF” belt.
“The Richest Motherfucker Belt”.
This way we can put both the rubies and the emeralds to good use.— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) April 16, 2021

The bad blood between Diaz and McGregor clearly still exists. Will it ever lead to a trilogy fight after each man picked up a win over the other back in 2016? It remains to be seen.
However, they each have bigger things to focus on at the moment. McGregor meets Poirier in July, while Diaz is set to make his return to the octagon against Leon Edwards at UFC 262 on May 15.
