At today’s first press event for UFC 196 featuring Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz, ‘Mystic Mac’ again made a prediction for his fight:
“I respect Nate,” McGregor said. “Don’t get me wrong, I do respect Nate. There are a lot of pussies in this game and he is not one of them. Don’t get me wrong. There’s a respect there between us, but it’s business in there. And business is business. He will be KO’d inside the first round.”
“I feel his repetitive foot patterns and his poor motions are too readable, too predictable,” McGregor said. “He’ll be too slow in there. His speed will stifle him. His soft body and his lack of preparation, he will not be able to handle the ferocity.”
