Former UFC Double Champ Conor McGregor has recently announced his comeback in early 2020 and the Irish Superstar has expressed his urge to fight the winner of BMF. According to Conor, he is the ultimate BMF in UFC and mocked the ‘Diaz vs Masvidal’ fight as an interim fight. Diaz vs McGregor 3 will be huge and UFC will definitely try to make it happen.
