For better or worse, the names of Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz will forever be intertwined.
The UFC stars took part in a two-fight series back in 2016, headlining UFC 196 and UFC 202, which became two of the highest grossing pay-per-views in combat sports history. They split the series, with Diaz submitting McGregor at UFC 196 and McGregor winning a majority decision at UFC 202, but a potentially lucrative third fight has yet to materialize.
While McGregor stayed has stayed busy since the Diaz rematch, fighting Eddie Alvarez and Khabib Nurmagomedov in the Octagon and Floyd Mayweather in the boxing ring, Diaz just competed for the first time in three years this past Saturday when he won a unanimous decision over Anthony Pettis at UFC 241 in Anaheim, California.
