Conor McGregor will meet Nate Diaz for their rematch on August 20, it has been announced.

The bout was originally scheduled for UFC 200 on July 9.

McGregor’s loss to Diaz in March was the first defeat of his UFC career. The Notorious one was left unceremoniously slumped on the canvass as Nate Diaz, through one good eye, saw the biggest bout of his career turn into the most glorious night of his life.

The bout was announced on the UFC 199 Pay-Per-View broadcast Saturday night.
