The Irishman, 46, added: “I do give Khan credit saying he will go to fight Conor McGregor in UFC rules, as the others said they would do it under boxing rules”.
Conor McGregor is the biggest name in mixed martial arts, and he’s well aware of the dangers that his sport present.
McGregor released the following statement following the news of Carvalho’s death.
“This is a f**king unsafe game”.
Diaz defeated McGregor at UFC 196 in March, forcing McGregor to tap to a rear-naked choke.
It did translate a little bit during the first round of the fight, when he was busted open above the right eye because one of McGregor’s punches.
While this certainly doesn’t officially rule the fight out, there is some speculation this could mean Conor McGregor is injured (or potentially another reason) – meaning Nate would miss out on his massive payday.
Uh oh. The last person you want to trash talk is someone who fights for a living.

Below are the odds as they stand today, with the fight just under three weeks away. When asked by Mens’ Health (via the Daily Mail) how it affected him, McGregor had this to say. After his fight for the UFC lightweight title was canceled because of an injury to then-champion Rafael dos Anjos, Diaz became McGregor’s opponent on short notice.
