Diaz: RDA, Cowboy got punked like b!^$#es
“Donald Cerrone, Rafael dos Anjos lames you should’ve stepped up in that press conference instead you both got punked out like some #b—es.”
UFC interim featherweight champion Conor McGregor dominated the “GO BIG” press conference on Friday.
He naturally riled up Jose Aldo, who he fights on Dec. 12 at UFC 194. But the best lines were saved for UFC lightweight champion Rafael Dos Anjos and top contender Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone, who fight each other at UFC on FOX 17 on Dec. 19, 2015 in Orlando, Florida.
McGregor told RDA he was coming to lightweight after beating Aldo, and that it would be a great day for the Brazilian’s bottom line. In so doing, he may have spawned a new MMM meme.
I can make you rich, crowed. I’ll change your bum life. When you sign to fight me, it’s a celebration. You ring back home, you ring your wife – baby, we’ve done it. We’re rich, baby. Conor McGregor made us rich. Break out the red panties.
Cerrone too got a similar offer.
“I’ll decide whether I’ll change your bum life as well,” said McGregor, who added that ‘Cowby’ had to win the title first.
If you missed the UFC’s “GO BIG” event on Friday, don’t worry. All you really need to know is that Conor McGregor has fights booked through 2020.
McGregor’s actually fighting featherweight champion Jose Aldo Dec. 12 at UFC 194 but you wouldn’t know it watching the event. McGregor threw a few jabs at Aldo, but the real show started when he turned his attention on lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos and No. 1 contender Donald Cerrone.
Dubbing their weight class as the “stick in the mud division,” McGregor goaded Dos Anjos and Cerrone by saying they’d each rather being fighting him instead.
“I’d change your bum life,” McGregor told Dos Anjos. “I could make you rich. You fight me? It’s a celebration. ‘Conor McGregor made us rich. Break out the red panties.’
“Don’t say you wouldn’t take that fight because you would, just like everyone else up here. Regardless of belts or any of that s**t. I’m the money fight in the male s**t in all divisions so f**k everybody else up here.”
As Dos Anjos bowed out, Cerrone wasn’t content to smile and nod.
“Of course, we get out here and and he wants to run his mouth,” said Cerrone. “It’s good, he sells the fights, but if he comes to 155 I’m going to bend his little ass over and knock the f***ing “Lucky Charms” out of him.”
UFC lightweight Nate Diaz watched the shenanigans and was not impressed with either RDA or Cerrone.
@Cowboycerrone @RdosAnjosMMA lames you should’ve stepped up in that press conference instead you both got punked out like some #bitches..
Diaz has not fought since losing a decision to now division champion Dos Anjos at UFC on FOX 13 on 13 December 2014. And Diaz beat Cerrone via a one-sided unanimous decision in the co-main event at UFC 141 on Friday December 30, 2011. An immediate rematch with RDA is highly unlikely, but a fight with Cerrone could be interesting, whether he loses or wins.
Another tantalizing possibility is McGregor getting a non-title fight to test the waters at lightweight, vs. Nate Diaz. Given McGregor’s probable antics, fans would treated to any number of fights during face to face meetings between the two for the media, because Nate Diaz ain’t no b—-.
