The last two clashes of today’s UFC’s finest fighters Conor
and Diaz were successful. On their first meeting at the UFC 196, Diaz defeated
Conor by submission. Reportedly it sold $1.5 Million PPV. One of the most bestselling
PPV in UFC history.
The second fight was more intense as Conor rebounded to win
with a majority decision over much bigger Diaz (two weight classes heavier than him).
The fans are now expecting a 3rd bout between the
two. A trilogy. But Dana White, the man who made the decision, the president of
the operation is not interested in doing it.
"The war was fun and super successful but I'm
movin' on." Here's the rub -- Conor beefed up for his fight against the
much larger Diaz. Conor normally fights at 145 and swelled to 168 to fight
Diaz.” –
Dana White
For now the door is locked for Conor vs Diaz as stated
by White.
Conor will be cutting weight to 155 and will face Alvarez
for the lightweight title at UFC 205
