However, due to the Coronavirus pandemic, the match was replaced with an Interim Lightweight Championship fight. In this fight, Tony Ferguson will fight Justin Gaethje. With all these fighters occupied, McGregor is short of a viable opponent. His next competitor is anyone’s guess.
Earlier on an episode of his podcast ‘Believe You Me’, ‘The Count’ said McGregor vs Diaz 3 is a viable option.
