McGregor Fires Back at Diaz After Bloody Defeat, Eyes Trilogy
Nate Diaz suffered a brutal two-round stoppage loss to Mike Perry at MVP MMA 1, marking his first MMA appearance since leaving the UFC. Perry opened deep cuts and left Diaz unable to answer the bell for round three. Conor McGregor quickly took to social media to mock his longtime rival, posting a taunt about why Diaz “didn’t take the fight” and vowing to settle their score in a third bout. Talk of a potential trilogy reignited after McGregor’s comments. Diaz reportedly turned down UFC offers to complete their rivalry before signing with MVP MMA, a move that backfired against Perry. Meanwhile, UFC chief Dana White confirmed McGregor’s comeback at UFC 329 in July against Max Holloway. If McGregor wins, he’s likely to ramp up pressure for another showdown with Diaz.
