“I feel like Mike Tyson, I want to eat their children,” – Conor McGregor.
Thanks to Rafael dos Anjos breaking his foot in training, the lightweight title fight that was set to headline UFC 196 has been replaced with a welterweight contest between two of the most outspoken fighters in the promotion.
Conor McGregor is moving up two weight classes to take on number five-ranked lightweight Nate Diaz at 170 lb, and we’re all very excited about it.
In case you’ve yet to be bitten by that infectious hype bug for this extraordinary fight, the UFC have kindly dropped their 20-odd minute Countdown to UFC 196 special to help. If this doesn’t get you fired up for the main event, then we hate to break it to you, but you’re almost definitely dead inside… or you’re just not a fan of MMA.
