Conor McGregor believes he has finally silenced his critics after bouncing back from his last defeat to gain revenge with a win over Nate Diaz.
He overcame the battered and bloody Diaz in their Welterweight rematch at UFC 202 in Las Vegas last night.
The Dubliner feels this victory has strengthened his reputation and shut his doubters up:
“I'm not surprised, the king is back," McGregor told a packed press room after the fight.
“Like my coach says, we win or we learn. I learned from the last contest. It's 1-1 - regroup, boy, we'll do it again. This time at 155lbs.
“I came up to 170lbs, faced the bigger man, and overcame adversity. You want this trilogy? It's on my terms, come back down to 155.”
