Russell Ess - March 22, 2016

Nate Diaz’s call out to Conor McGregor after his win over Michael Johnson at UFC on FOX 17 was the best move of his career. The expletive speech put the wheels in motion for a big money fight, but it wasn’t until lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos pulled out of his fight with McGregor to get things really going for Diaz.

The mental aspect of fighting is just as important as the physical. Just ask former UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre. “I became champion, I beat the greatest welterweight in the world back in the day that was Matt Hughes, who seems to be invincible back in the day and I beat him. So now I become the new greatest thing in the sport and everybody tells me how great I am and stuff and I started to believe in my own hype,” St-Pierre revealed when speaking to Joe Buck on “Undeniable” (transcribed by FOX Sports).
