Conor McGregor‘s ability to trash-talk his competitors almost matches his skills in the ring, and after being defeated by UFC antihero Nate Diaz, he’s clearly amped up his bad-mouthing. Tonight, their tumultuous history came to a head during an ultra-heated press conference in Vegas to promote their fight at UFC 202.
After McGregor arrived 30 minutes late sans guilt (“The Vegas traffic is heavy this time of day. There must be a McGregor show going on because this place is packed out!”), an infuriated Diaz walked out shouting obscenities. “Hey, f**k your whole team, how about that?” he yelled.

“F**k your whole team,” McGregor shouted back, throwing water bottles. “You’ll do nothing. Shut your f**king mouth. You’ll do nothing. You’ll do f**king nothing. Not one of you will do nothing. Get the f**k out of here.”
Oh, you two crazy kids.
