On the off chance that you missed it, the rumours suggest that Conor McGregor will get an immediate chance for redemption against Nate Diaz. The Dubliner lost to Diaz at UFC 196, and according to various sources a re-match has been verbally agreed by all relevant parties.
It had been expected that McGregor would return to 145 pounds to defend his featherweight title, while Diaz could aim for a title shot against Dos Anjos the lightweight champion.
Speaking of Dos Anjos - the forgotten man from UFC 196 after he pulled out - the Brazilian isn't pleased at all about the proposed fight:
@UFCONFOX Mcgregor vs Diaz 2 make no sense, I would beat theses 2 guys on the same night

It'll be interesting to see how McGregor acts in the build-up to the re-match given how soundly beaten he was - but it does appear that he's still attracting the attention of other big UFC players.
