THE BOOKMAKERS MAY have installed him as a slight favourite, but Conor McGregor was very much an underdog in the eyes of his peers for last Saturday’s rematch with Nate Diaz at UFC 202.
McGregor scored a majority-decision victory over Diaz after five thrilling rounds at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, avenging his submission defeat to the same opponent in March.
However, an overwhelming majority of fighters and journalists — this writer included — tipped Diaz to emerge victorious in their pre-fight predicitions. McGregor had obviously paid attention to that consensus and it made the result all the sweeter.
Footage released by The Mac Life shows the UFC featherweight champion — on crutches due to damage sustained to his shin — returning to his changing room after the fight, with his coach John Kavanagh by his side.
It appears to be the sight of UFC middleweight title challenger Dan Henderson — who was one of those to back Diaz — which sets McGregor off. As he passes Henderson to his left, McGregor shouts:
They all doubted me. Every one of you doubted me. Doubt me now! Doubt me now! Doubt me now!”
