Earlier this week reports surfaced that the UFC was actively looking to book Nate Diaz vs. Conor McGregor II for UFC 200 in July. According to sources, both sides had verbally agreed to a welterweight bout on the July 9th card, however nothing was made official.
With that being said, Diaz’s strength and conditioning coach Jose Garcia posted on Facebook in regards to the bout, leading many to believe that the bout will be made official soon.
