The weeks before the UFC 189 pay-per-view was intense, to say the least. Leading up to the fight, McGregor showcased why his trash-talking skills were regarded as one of the best in the fight business. However, as things turned out, the Irishman and Aldo didn’t go on to fight at UFC 189 after all. After months of build-up, McGregor instead went on to face Chad Mendes for the interim UFC featherweight championship, while Aldo had to withdraw from the fight.
Conor McGregor had won the unified UFC featherweight title at UFC 194 when he finally defeated ‘The King of Rio’ within 13 seconds of their world title fight.
