We're still getting over the fact that Conor McGregor has lost a mixed martial arts bout for the first time since 2010.
The Dubliner was a strong favourite to see off the challenge of Nate Diaz, but the Stockton native upset the odds, despite only coming into the fight as a last-minute replacement for the injured Rafael Dos Anjos.
A taller, rangier opponent than many McGregor has faced in the recent past, Diaz secured a second round submission when 'The Notorious' tapped out.
And as some have noticed, the Dubliner had strong words to say about such a manner of defeat just last year in an interview with
Esquire, while discussing his 38-second defeat to Joe Duffy back in 2010.
It's clearly one thing to say it, and quite another to put it into practice.
