"Khabib’s next fight, we’re not fighting for no damn interim belt. We want the real belt, or we don’t want nothing. "We appreciate everything the UFC has done for us, but it’s time for a real belt. Nobody is interested in fighting for a fake belt. Tony Ferguson has a fake belt. Nobody wants this."https://www.instagram.com/p/Bd_EdP0nt_W/?hl=en&taken-by=thenotoriousmma White addressed the matter of McGregor's delayed return to UFC action last weekend, telling reporters:
"Conor has said he's thinking about coming back in September. If he comes back in September that's almost two years [since he won it, at UFC 205]. That can't happen. It's not fair to everybody else."If McGregor, who became reigning featherweight and lightweight champion in November 2016, was not to return until this autumn, it would be closing in on 600 days before he defended the 155lbs and that is something the promotion cannot countenance. However, as of Wednesday morning, McGregor remains the champion of the lightweight division. Helwani received that message from McGregor's team after reaching out for comment. As for 'The Notorious' himself, the train keeps rolling. https://www.instagram.com/p/BeBdVNFAN1l/?hl=en&taken-by=thenotoriousmma All may be revealed at UFC 220 this weekend.
