Conor McGregor will get his shot to prove that he’s one of the best fighters on the planet and that he is the best featherweight in the UFC when he takes on champion Jose Aldo at UFC 189 in Las Vegas.
McGregor made the announcement during his UFC 183 Q&A session:
“We have the fight date for McGregor-Aldo, the biggest fight of the year,” McGregor said. “Saturday, July 11th, International Fight Week, I’m gonna rip that Brazilian’s head off.”
The build up to this fight should be amazing, McGregor doesn’t do anything on a small scale, and the UFC usually does a great job of stacking their July card. Expect a huge co-main event to be announced in the coming weeks.
