Yesterday, Dana White announced that Nate Diaz would replace Rafael Dos Anjos to fight Conor McGregor. After the announcement was made, MMA fans were ready a ton of trash talk and boy did both fighters deliver at the UFC 196 press conference today.
Conor started off by talking shit about Nate Diaz being a wanna-be gangster while teaching Jiu-Jitsu to kids to make ends meet.

Diaz then fired a shot at Conor claiming he was using steriods to move up in weight but the Cali crowd sided with Conor and chanted his name.

Diaz then chided McGregor for fighting “midgets” while Conor yelled back that he was about to stiffen up “a skinny mexican” at UFC 196.

Later in the press conference, McGregor took an opportunity to mock Rafael Dos Anjos for “breaking his vagina” and pulling out of UFC 196.
