MMA Odds and Ends for Monday: Dana White says Conor McGregor vs. Tony Ferguson ‘has to happen’ next

UFC President Dana White revealed at the UFC 216 post-fight presser on Saturday that newly crowned interim lightweight champion Tony Ferguson should face current lightweight champion next. White shot down the possibility of a trilogy matchup between McGregor and Nate Diaz.

“Nobody’s talked about Diaz – Diaz has never been talked about. That’s Internet bull***. Tony’s the interim champion, Conor’s the champion. It’s the fight that makes sense. It’s the fight that has to happen – it doesn’t ‘make sense,’ it’s the fight that has to happen.” White said.
