As UFC President Dana White confirms that the landmark UFC 200 event will take place in the new Las Vegas purpose built arena, there were further rumours about another UFC event in Ireland.
UFC Dublin has already been confirmed for October 24th, but if events conspire in a certain way - it could be even sooner before the sport is back on these shores.
At a Q&A with White today as he unveiled the UFC 200 event, White revealed that there are plans in place to host a UFC event in Croke Park if certain things work out for Conor McGregor:
White: If McGregor wins tomorrow, he’ll get Aldo next in Las Vegas. If McGregor beats Aldo, his first defense will be at Croke Park.

With McGregor now crowned the interim champion, that date in January against Aldo now has more than just the title unification on the line.
