Is the UFC already starting to promote McGregor Vs Diaz 3?

The first two fights were exciting, but what the UFC’s most recent list of all time fights seems to be revealing is that the Ultimate Fighting Championship plans on announcing a bout between Conor McGregor Vs. Nate Diaz 3 sometime in the future.

The first two fights where epic, with Nate Diaz accepting bout number 1 while on vacation in Mexico and not in preparation for a fight.  Conor McGregor went on to lose that fight via submission in March of 2016 then went on to rematch Nate Diaz 90 days later winning the second fight that august.

The UFC ranked the first bout which Diaz won as the 2nd best fight of all time, the best fight of all time was the rematch which McGregor won.  It would appear the list is being used to help build and promote certain fights, as none of the bouts listed occurred before the Ultimate Fighter TV show.  Check out the UFC’s complete list of their top 25 fights below:
