VIDEO: Nate Diaz accuses Conor McGregor of taking steroids and he’s not happy at the allegation

Nate Diaz came out to get a reaction from Conor McGregor and boy did he get one.

As both men lobbed grenades in the battle to get an early advantage in the mental warfare ahead of UFC 196, Diaz pulled out a A-bomb of an accusation by suggesting McGregor was, along with the entire UFC roster, taking performance enhancing drugs.

“Everybody’s on steroids,” Diaz said. “The whole UFC, everybody.”

“Your teammate Gil (Melendez) and Jake (Shields) were two caught on steroids,” McGregor responded.

“And you and Dos Anjos,” Diaz continued.

And it’s safe to say that McGregor didn’t welcome the accusation.
