Nate Diaz has never been one to mince his words. The Stockton, California, native has no problem talking smack with the best of them and on Wednesday, he let out some of those feelings in an interview with Ariel Helwani on the MMA Hour.
Diaz, who has not fought since losing by majority decision to Conor McGregor last August, said he has no plans to fight in 2017 and is not interested in fighting McGregor again.
"For one, I never ever said I was waiting for a third fight with Conor McGregor," Diaz said in the interview via MMAFighting.com. "I never said that. People think what they wanted and said that I wanted another fight with Conor. I already whipped Conor's f------ ass. He should want a fight with me. I gotta light a fire up under his ass?"
Diaz felt that he won the second fight even though two of the three judges gave it to McGregor.
"He's the f------ b----," Diaz said. "You're the f------ b----, Conor. You f------ got your ass whipped and you're running around like, 'I'm the two-belt champion, I overcame adversity.' I'm like, when? When you were quitting in that second fight? In the third round, he was making sounds like, 'ugh, ugh.'
"He's like crying, you know what I'm saying? When you're a fighter, you understand. You know when somebody is being a little b----."
Diaz is currently racing motorcycles in California and said he plans to finish out that season before coming back to UFC for more fights.
