Video: Ahead of UFC 205, watch the Conor McGregor vs. Nate Diaz instant-classic rematch

Sit back and settle in to rewatch one of the best and biggest fights of 2016.

Back in March at UFC 196, UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor took a late-notice non-title welterweight bout with Nate Diaz. Although McGregor was a heavy favorite, Diaz pulled off the upset via second-round submission.

Rather than returning to featherweight, McGregor campaigned for an immediate rematch, which came at UFC 202 in August.

Check out that full bout, which again won “Fight of the Night” honors, above.
