Diaz is next.
Conor McGregor is probably so familiar with his original opponents being replaced on the fight card that it’s second nature to him.
Rafael dos Anjos’ nasty broken foot marks the sixth time that an opponent of ‘The Notorious’ has had to pull out of a fight due to an injury but this rarely slows the Dubliner down when he’s in the gym or alters his training techniques.
All McGregor can do is concentrate on his own strengths and it seems that the featherweight champion has been doing just that.
As is the norm whenever he has an important fight on the horizon, ‘The Notorious’ has been hitting the bags hard but maybe he’s putting a little bit more wellie into those strikes, considering the fact that he’s moving into the welterweight division to take on Nate Diaz in a few days time.
