Morning Report: Nate Diaz feels disrespected by UFC and fans making 'ridiculous' excuses for Conor McGregor's loss

Nate Diaz doesn't sound happy for a guy who allegedly made millions of dollars choking out Conor McGregor at UFC 196.

The upset win certainly helped Diaz's Q-rating, but he's not exactly basking in the glow of a higher profile.

"I feel like, honest, I feel like the UFC wants to weed me the f**k out of this position," Diaz told ESPN.com's Brett Okamoto. "I don't know if I'm supposed to say that. Sorry. I feel like a lot of people are coming at me now. I see them making a lot of excuses for [McGregor], and I think it's kind of ridiculous.
