Everyone was wondering if Conor McGregor would talk smack against Nate Diaz leading up to their rematch after he got submitted by Stockton’s finest the first go-round. And now we see the Irish artisan beginning to put paint on the canvas of the promotional masterpiece he plans to unfold for what will surely be one of the greatest rematches in UFC history — and likely the most profitable.
The Notorious posted the above photo on Instagram today with the following caption:
“Working the rear hand uppercut with Roddy prior to UFC 196. A shot I called pre fight. Who else can call a shot like the rear hand uppercut on a big 6 foot lurch and then go out and dig that baby repeatedly into the nose? Anyone? Didn’t think so. Mark my fucking words I am going to toy with him in the rematch. Believe that.”
Any chance Mystic Mac can foresee then bring to realization the mathematical formula that will lead to his solving the Nate Diaz “6-foot lurch” riddle at 170 pounds?
Anything is possible. For the record Conor is 5’9″.
