WATCH: The respect that McGregor and Diaz had for one another at the end of the fight was fantastic

Alan Loughnane

A fight which will live long in the memory…

When it’s all over and done with, it’s clear that these two fighters have a lot of respect for one another following McGregor’s win.

The fight was a WAR, and the pair went at it in a blood fest in the Octagon with Diaz cutting up badly, nothing new there though with all the scar tissue Diaz has around his eyes.

It was back and forth with Diaz actually looking like he might finish the fight in the third round when he got a purple patch and had McGregor on the ropes.

But at the end of the fight, despite the result, there was nothing but respect for each other.

Awesome…
