McGregor vs Diaz headlines UFC 200

 

Ultimate Fighting Championship has officially announced its headline for UFC 200 on July 9 (July 10 PHL time) at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

In the main event, Irish mixed martial arts superstar Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz are set to go at it again in a non-title welterweight showdown for five five-minute rounds.

The two first met inside the cage earlier this month when Diaz, a late replacement foe, pulled a shocker and submitted McGregor with a rear naked choke in round two.

In the co-main event, former lightweight champion Frankie Edgar and former featherweight champion Jose Aldo are set to tangle for the UFC interim featherweight title.

Aldo and Edgar fought three years ago when Aldo successfully defeated the latter by decision to retain his then featherweight title. — APG, GMA News
