Conor McGregor enjoyed watching Nick Diaz’s return to the Octagon this past Saturday at UFC 266, and he took the opportunity to blast his rival, Nate Diaz.

Nick Diaz, who was fighting for the first time since 2015, took on Robbie Lawler. Diaz peppered Lawler with punches early on, but the latter continued to land shots of his own. In round three, after Diaz was dropped, he waved the fight off.

After the bout, McGregor tweeted out the comments below.

The finishing sequence when the temple was clipped after the leg went, the evasion of the final shot, which was a blistering uppercut, was magic. Look at it. Down on one knee, observing where the shot was coming from, slip/parry, and re cente to open guard safe. Ala Daly fight.

Nate your boxing is piss compare to nicks. We been fed garbage with your sloppy shots the last few years. Can see the clear difference between the two brothers after last night. Balance, composure. Another level the big bro is on to you. I made you.

That prompted the following response from Nate Diaz.

U can’t fight at all member your leg ?

Diaz is alluding to the fact McGregor broke his leg during his rubber match with Dustin Poirier this past summer.

McGregor and Diaz fought twice in 2016. Diaz won the first fight by submission, but lost the rematch via decision.
