Conor, you absolute tease

Conor McGregor knew exactly what he was doing here.

We still have no idea who Conor McGregor will be facing at UFC 200.

Reports have been circulating that a rematch against Nate Diaz is being targeted for the landmark event but, at the time of writing, these rumours remain unconfirmed.

On Good Friday, McGregor posted a very cryptic message on Instagram along with a photo from his first bout against Nate Diaz at UFC 196 which is sure to have the UFC 200 match-up speculators pulling their hair out.

The key phrase here is “next time”. Will that be at UFC 200 or is McGregor saying that the rematch won’t be immediate and he will have a different dance partner on July 9? I guess we’ll have to wait to find out.
