Dana stated in a previous interview that Diaz and McGregor are not in the same weight class, not fighting for any titles, and not for any ranking position.
He is against this trilogy fight at all cost. Conor McGregor had a KO against Eddie Alvarez at UFC 205. McGregor is now the champion of the 145 and 155 weight divisions. He has to defend his belts.
Nate Diaz was originally a 155 pound fighter. Currently he is fighting at 170lbs. If Diaz is willing to cut back down to his original weight class to fight for a 3rd fight, it'll make perfect sense this time around.
President Dana White can't say this fight won't make any sense this time knowing they'll be in the same weight class at 155lbs and McGregor will be defending his title belt against Diaz.
Let's show Dana White how many of the fans want to see this fight happen. Both Diaz and McGregor are 1-1. We want to see who will come out on top.
