Filed under: News , UFC Conor McGregor has a pretty stern test ahead of him, but his coach is already looking ahead to potential future challenges. On Tuesday UFC officials formally announced UFC 197 and a headliner between featherweight champion McGregor (19-2 MMA, 7-0 UFC) and lightweight titleholder Rafael dos Anjos (25-7 MMA, 14-5 UFC) – with dos Anjos 155-pound title on the line. McGregor has already unleashed some serious trash-talk ahead of their pay-per-view event, which takes place March 5 at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena. And if all goes to plan, he could soon hold two belts – the first to do so simultaneously in UFC history – before a summer return against the featherweight division’s top contender, Frankie Edgar (20-4-1 MMA, 14-4-1 UFC), who was hoping he’d get the next shot at McGregor.
