This guy is absolutely crazy…
Conor McGregor will now face Diego Brandao at the upcoming UFC event in Dublin in July after Cole Miller, his original opponent, was forced to withdraw from the fight due to torn ligaments in his thumb.
Miller didn’t turn up for the press call on Tuesday and has told officials that the injury will take too long to heal so he couldn’t commit to the fight with the Dubliner.
What about the boyo who’s replacing him… Brandao has a record of 22 wins and nine losses and takes the fight at just six weeks notice.
UFC owner Dana White is excited about the prospect of McGregor and the Brazilian facing off: “Diego Brandao is explosive and a well-rounded fighter. This should be a war.”
Brandao won the Ultimate Fighter back in 2012, he was bad-ass, in your face and pretty much the star of the show, check out the highlights here…
