Conor McGregor Took A Swing At Nate Diaz During Their UFC 196 Pre-Fight Press Conference

And do you blame The Notorious? Dude is trained to kill. It’s only instinct to take a swing when some clown holds his fist that close to your face for seconds on end! Conor McGregor probably couldn’t help himself; that’s just how his brain is wired. Like a goddamn MMA cyborg!

Mcgregor is set to square off in the octagon with Nate Diaz at UFC 196 on Saturday night. The two had to be restrained from each other at Thursday’s presser.

At a prior press conference last week, McGregor promised to KO Diaz in the first round, and the Irishman’s track record of backing up his words is pretty damn good.

The fight held at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, will also feature Holly Holm vs Miesha Tate as the co-main event. Hell yes.

Here’s to some knockouts!
