A clear cut return fight for Conor McGregor remains a rubber match with 209’s favorite son Nate Diaz. Chiefly, the two have managed to do massive business together and solidify themselves as bonafide pay-pay-view behemoths. In light of these instances, a fight with the perennial scrapper in Diaz remains a lucrative option for McGregor.

Additionally, the Irishman and the UFC brass as a whole have gone on record to express an interest in a rematch with Khabib Nurmagomedov. The bout first took place at UFC 229 in what was the biggest event that the promotion had assembled. Moreover, the two share a bitter rivalry that spans more than simply competition, hence offering a prepared narrative.

However, ‘The Eagle’ seems to have his sights set on another high profile match-up as he looks to wrap up his career. The 28-0 fighter has hinted at possibly hanging the gloves with two more massive fights to take him to 30-0. Based on his recent comments, it appears as though Conor McGregor doesn’t feature in his plans.

Regardless of his opponent, ‘The Notorious’ McGregor has proven to have been a monstrous draw in combat sports. MMA fans and pundits will be closely watching his next move going into the latter part of 2020.
