UFC 196: Conor McGregor vs. Nate Diaz, is happening this Saturday, March 5 in Las Vegas.
Conor McGregor has summoned the support of specialist Ido Portal to help him become the master of movement ahead of his fight.
McGregor demonstrated his array of skills in his most recent sparring session, showing nimble footwork in taking evasive action to avoid being hit against martial artist Portal.
On the latest episode of UFC Embeded Nate Diaz can be seen with long time training partner Kron Gracie. Diaz talked about how he wasn’t impressed by McGregor’s movements and that Rickson Gracie was doing a long time ago using Ginastica Natural.
“See all that movement stuff they got going on, that they’re trying to preach to everybody, we already got! You know that was Rickson Gracie started that and I got my partner here Kron Gracie, he’s the one who comes over here and trains with me and helps me alot for the fights. Real martial artists.”
