Conor McGregor hinted on Saturday that a trilogy bout with Nate Diaz could be his next appearance in the Octagon.
The former UFC two-division champion told Diaz in a comment on Instagram to "sign the contract," according to BT Sport's Chamatkar Sandhu.

McGregor followed that up on Twitter by hinting that a bout is coming within the next two months.

McGregor and Diaz met twice in 2016, and the fights were two of the biggest in UFC history. In the first clash in March, Diaz upset McGregor with a second-round submission. Five months later, McGregor edged out Diaz via majority decision.
"The Notorious" is coming off a 40-second TKO win over Donald Cerrone at UFC 246 in January. Diaz, meanwhile, fell short to Jorge Masvidal in his most recent fight last November at UFC 244.
