Conor McGregor’s UFC juggernaut came to a shuddering halt as he was choked out by Nate Diaz at UFC 196 at the MGM grand in Las Vegas on Saturday.

Nate Diaz beat Conor McGregor by submission with 48 seconds left in the second round Saturday night for the second spectacular upset of UFC 196. Diaz was battered and bloodied for the first 1½ rounds by McGregor but he abruptly changed the bout with an electric series of punches before forcing McGregor to tap out on the ground.

I stormed in and put it all on the line. I took a shot and missed. I will never apologize for taking a shot. Shit happens. I'll take this loss like a man. I will not shy away from it. I will not change who I am. If another champion goes up 2 weights let me know. If your tired of me talking money, take a nap. I'll still be here when you wake up with the highest PPV and the gate. Still talking multi 7's. Thank you to the true support and fuck the hate that came out of the woodwork. I love it all. Its still steak for breakfast. I've been here many times in my life in some form or another. I'll eat it all and come back stronger. Aldo you are a pussy. Dos anjos you are a pussy. When the history books are written, I showed up. You showed up on Twitter. To the fans! Never ever shy away from challenges. Never run from adversity. Face yourself head on. Nate I will see you again. #ConorMcGregor #UFC #irish #MMA #Chamption
