Conor McGregor tweeted the following a couple of hours ago:
Happy to announce that I am BACK on UFC 200!
Shout out to @danawhite and @lorenzofertitta on getting this one done for the fans. #Respect— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) April 25, 2016
As of now, the UFC has not officially acknowledged that the McGregor/Diaz fight is back on. In a column with The 42, Conor’s coach revealed that they were still preparing for a fight on the July show, even if it was as a last minute replacement.
“We’re still training twice a day, aiming for 9 July. Everything is on point to peak for UFC 200.”
