Nate Diaz Comments On Rumors Of “Freak Show Fight” Between GSP & Conor McGregor

Going into UFC 196, with former UFC Welterweight Champion Georges St-Pierre sitting in the front row for the main event between Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz, there was talk that UFC was hoping to set the stage for a potential super fight between GSP and McGregor. As Nate Diaz explained to Chael Sonnen on his “You’re Welcome” podcast this week, however, he is not “some game” that can be “f*cked with.”

Diaz told Sonnen the following during his appearance this week on his PodcastOne.com show:

“Yeah I heard (they were planning on having Conor call out GSP) but I put a big old hole in that sh*t. What did they think, that I’m some game they can play? I can’t be f*cked with, I been in the game too long. They wanted to have this big old GSP vs. McGregor bullsh*t, with Georges [sitting] in the front row at UFC 196, I don’t even wanna hear about that sh*t. Get the f*ck outta here with that. What the f*ck? I pissed off Conor McGregor, I pissed off GSP, but most of all I pissed off the UFC. Well guess what? LOL m*therfuckers. Georges is full of sh*t, he’s a bully, he was going to fight this little Irish featherweight guy? He would have held him down, that’s a freak show fight man.”
