The question is will Conor McGregor accept? He’s scheduled to fight Nate Diaz at UFC 196, but maybe he could find a slot in his diary?

So UFC 196 is shaping up to have quite a decent rivalry, as UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor makes his way up to welterweight, taking on Nate Diaz. It wasn’t always meant to be that way though.

Originally booked in against the UFC lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos for the March 5 main event, McGregor got a new opponent when RDA was forced off the card with an injury. The update on the Brazilian’s broken foot can be seen below:
