Nate Diaz vill ha mer betalt vid en trilogi med Conor McGregor – önskar 160 miljoner kronor

Nate Diaz vill ha bra mycket mer betalt om han ska möta Conor McGregor en tredje gång. Enligt Diaz huvudtränare, Richard Perez, vill Diaz ha mellan 20-30 miljoner dollar, vilket i svensk valuta landar runt 160 miljoner kronor. De båda har mötts två gånger tidigare som setts av rekordpublik båda gångerna.

I en intervju med mmajunkie.com berättar Perez detta:

At least $20 million, $30 million. Come on. UFC’s making a whole lot of money – a whole lot of money – and they’re pocketing it. They’re giving more to McGregor, so it’s not fair because it takes two in that ring to draw a crowd. I mean, a good two fighters.

It’s just like Mayweather when he fought (Andre) Berto. It was not even sold out at all. It was embarrassing. It’s because that guy couldn’t draw a crowd. See, that’s what I’m saying: It’s the fighters that draw the crowd. And Nathan and McGregor – the third one would be outstanding. Everyone knows that. So he needs to get paid at least $30 million easy.
