While many fighters were hoping to get a chance to dethrone McGregor, it was ultimately Nate Diaz who was selected by the UFC as a late replacement opponent for McGregor. To add another twist to the anticipation of the last-minute fight, McGregor accepted to fight another weight class up at welterweight above his originally scheduled lightweight bout with dos Anjos.
