Conor McGregor has gotten the attention of the entire sports world this past week after it was announced he was out of UFC 200 due to his refusal to do media obligations. The attention continued earlier today when he tweeted that he is back on UFC 200.
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
There is no official word yet from the UFC on the validity of McGregor’s Twitter announcement. If this is in fact true, McGregor would be back headlining UFC 200 in a rematch bout against Nate Diaz. On Friday, at the UFC 200 press conference launch, Dana White reassured fans that McGregor would not fight in July so people have reason to be skeptical of “Mystic Mac’s” tweet.
