Conor is no foreigner to the 170lb division. McGregor has previously competed in the welterweight division and also tasted success against the likes of Nate Diaz and Donald Cerrone.

“I see many holes. As well as a suspect dome. I fancy it greatly for the treble,” wrote Conor talking about fighting Usman.
