This makes Diaz’s victory all the more incredible. The reality is, he had just a few days to prepare for a fight against the greatest featherweight in the world. Anything past a first round loss would have been a respectable performance. But to secure the victory against McGregor and the fashion in which he did it, was nothing short of amazing.
Now that the fight is over, Diaz can go back to his holiday in Mexico. Who knows, he might just buy his own yacht this time round, after he took home a cool $500,000 cheque.
