Conor McGregor claims there is a "1 billion per cent" chance that a trilogy fight with Nate Diaz will happen

Conor McGregor has seemingly confirmed that he's not going to let his rivalry with Nate Diaz go.

In a Q&A session that was conducted on social media, Conor McGregor revealed that the final edition of the trilogy saga between McGregor and Diaz was yet to come.

McGregor and Diaz locked horns twice in 2016, with one win apiece. Looking to make a boisterous return to the cage, Conor McGregor has revealed grand schemes of taking the UFC by storm.

Their first clash took place back in March 2016 at UFC 196. Diaz managed to put one over the Crumlin native by way of submission in the second-round.

McGregor went on to return the favor at UFC 202. The former champ-champ recorded the win by way of a majority decision.

The timeline of Conor McGregor's return

Although Conor McGregor has granted fans a sneak peak into his roadmap to glory upon his return from injury, a legitimate timeline for his return remains unclear.

In response to a fan's question on his Q&A on Twitter, 'The Notorious' confirmed that he was looking to lace up the sparring gloves and pads by April, following which, a return to the cage is only a matter of time.

"I will be full mixed martial arts sparring by April. Easily! By then a return will be imminent. But I must be patient. I will beat this!"

Although the Irishman has been reeling from the effects of his clash against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264, he has managed to retain his relevance in the division. The fact that he has managed to do so after having lost three of his last five fights is even more impressive. Despite the losses, he remains one of the most discussed fighters in the division.
