Nate Diaz Hopes Both Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov Lose Tomorrow
In an interview with TMZ Sports, Nate Diaz turned down the possibility of a trilogy fight with Conor McGregor and said he hopes both McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov lose at UFC 229 tomorrow.
He said he “slapped the sh*t out of both of ’em” but thinks McGregor is the favorite because “Khabib is scared for his life.” He added that Khabib “fights like a scared little bitch” on the ground while McGregor will stand up and trade blows.
He added: “I think Conor has got a way better fight style.”
He also said that Khabib hasn’t fought any worthwhile opponents (“That fool ain’t fought nobody.”) and is hoping for a double knockout. He added that he’s not interested in a fight with Khabib because he’s “boring” and he already slapped him during an incident in public.
Finally, when asked about the trilogy fight, he said: “I ain’t fighting no trilogy. He already got his ass whipped. He can fight everybody else. I got shit to do too.”
