Revenge, redemption, rematch.
The worst kept secret in the UFC was confirmed and it’s official, Conor McGregor will be given an immediate shot at the man who ended his unbeaten streak in the UFC, Nate Diaz.
As we all know, Diaz forced McGregor to tap out after a perfectly executed rear-naked choke in their non-title bout at UFC 196 and just like their previous meeting, the upcoming fight is at 170lbs.
McGregor’s coach John Kavanagh has already given his reaction to the news via Twitter.
Win or Learn #UFC200 make mistakes, don't repeat them.

This rematch has been long touted but it’s not the only mouthwatering meeting that’s on the card.
Former featherweight champion Jose Aldo squarring off against Frankie Edgar for the interim featherweight title is just one of the fights on a stunning card.
UFC 200 takes place on July 9 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Bring it on!
