Conor McGregor to fight in UFC 200 after all

Dubai: UFC fighter Conor McGregor has said on Twitter that he will fight at UFC 200 despite previously saying he wouldn’t.

It comes just three days after the UFC stated that he would not be fighting Nate Diaz in Las Vegas on July 9.

McGregor has been vocal in his opposition to the promotional duties expected of him by the UFC.

In the Tweet, McGregor thanked Dana White and Lorenzo Fertitta for reinstating him in the event, which will give him the opportunity to avenge the shock defeat he suffered to Diaz in March.
