NATE DIAZ has fired warning shots at both Conor McGregor and Jorge Masvidal following events at UFC 246.
McGregor stole the show in Las Vegas on Saturday night when he knocked out Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone in just 40 seconds.
And while most MMA fans were impressed by the Irishman’s performance, Diaz took to Twitter to slag off his display.
Speaking about McGregor, he said: “Weak as f***.
“This s***’s all fake.”
Then turning his attention to the BMF champion Masvidal, he added: “And why the f*** you in a robe Smh.”
Diaz beat McGregor by submission in March 2016, but then lost a majority decision in a rematch five months later at UFC 202.
More recently, the west coast American has shared the ring with Masvidal, who he lost to in November when the doctor stopped the fight due to a cut over Diaz’s eye.
Out of the two, the Masvidal fight would seem to be the more likely for Diaz given UFC President Dana White has made it clear the Khabib Nuurmagamedov rematch is the clash for McGregor.
Speaking after UFC 246, he said: “Every time there is someone out there fun, there’s always someone fun who can fight Conor.
“When you look at what makes sense, he had lots of personal stuff going into the Khabib fight. He has been obsessed with getting that rematch.
“Khabib is 28-0 and you have to start talking about legacy. After tonight and after the first fight, we’re looking at Hagler-Hearns, Ali-Foreman.
“This is a massive fight with global appeal. This is the fight to make. Masvidal doesn’t have a world championship… Khabib is the fight to make.”
