According to a report from Kimura.se, the UFC is set to announce a main event between Conor McGregor and longtime 170-pound king Georges St-Pierre for UFC 205 in November.

The announcement is said to be made on tomorrow’s edition of UFC Tonight:

“A super match between former welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre and the reigning featherweight champion Conor McGregor rumored to be ready. The match will be scheduled as the main match on the UFC’s first gala in New York.

It is the American news page Smackhisface.com announcing that the game will be ready and will be presented at tomorrow’s episode of “UFC Tonight”. According Smackhisface are sources of GSP’s gym, Tristar Gym, reporting matching. The same sources say that the game was originally supposed to take place already at UFC 200, but those plans were scrapped when Conor lost to Nate Diaz at UFC 196th”

McGregor (20-3) is coming off of an amazing 25-minute battle against Stockton Native Nate Diaz at UFC 202 earlier this month, in which the Irish featherweight champion took home a majority decision win.

St-Pierre (25-2) hasn’t seen the inside of a UFC Octagon in nearly three years since he successfully defended his then-welterweight title against Johny Hendricks at UFC 167 via split decision.

The Canadian phenom has been teasing a potential return to the UFC for quite some time now, however, names that are commonly being thrown about for the return include combatants such as Nick Diaz or current 170-pound champ Tyron Woodley.

If a bout with McGregor is on the table, it will certainly generate a massive payday for all parties involved.

If this news is legit, then is it safe to say McGregor is getting stripped of the Featherweight title?

GSP should win this one, but with all the time away, who knows where GSP is at?

I'd rather they didn't but I can't act like this doesn't move my needle.

that fight sucks ass.

Didn't Dana said that Conor's next fight was going to be to defend his belt?

This doesn't sound legit and personally it's not a fight I'd like to see.

He should defend the belt or fight Eddie for the LW title Phone Post 3.0

Jab, jab, takedown, submission

Georges ftw

Did that article come out of Google translator?  

The writing is suspiciously similar to the spam emails I get from Nigerian princes.  

Also, I don't think I can take a fight article seriously when it states: "The match will be scheduled as the main match on the UFC's first gala in New York."  LOL!

Jab jab takedown maybe. Lol at gsp finishing someone, especially after a lay off. I hope this isn't real honestly Phone Post 3.0

Probably true unfortunately. Phone Post 3.0

really if this is the fight GSP comes back for I'll lose a lot of respect for him. might as well fight BJ again if he wants a gimme fight.

no disrespect intended towards BJ.

16

the more I think about this the angrier I get, was GSP always looking for the easiest fight? he'll never think of fighting Anderson yet he'll call out Nate and Conor, and Bisping?

17

I like it.

I'd argue it means the exact opposite. Phone Post 3.0

Alright. Go for it.

Nick Diaz still GOAT - the more I think about this the angrier I get, was GSP always looking for the easiest fight? he'll never think of fighting Anderson yet he'll call out Nate and Conor, and Bisping?
Conor is where the money is.

It's not really all that complicated, you can definitely relax. Phone Post 3.0

Dana never says the opposite of what's actually going to happen. The other guy knows what's up. Phone Post 3.0
