Conor McGregor, Nate Diaz take home Fight of the Night honors at UFC 202

If the first fight between Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz was memorable, the second fight at UFC 202 between the two went down as an instant classic. McGregor won a majority draw in the end (48-47, 47-47, 48-47), but the fight saw was a back-and-forth war of attrition in which both men showed their heart.

And, as a reward for their efforts, Diaz and McGregor took home Fight of the Night bonuses. Each received an additional $50,000.

The first eight minutes of action was all McGregor, who was picking Diaz apart on the feet and slamming his lead leg with kicks.
