McGregor spoke about his plans for the current year

"June 29, Mexican Independence Day on Sept. 14, and then in December. Three fights this year. Please God, please let me have three fights before the end of the year. I have two fights left on my existing contract with the UFC, and we're in the negotiation stage right now. We'll see how things work out. I'm excited to have one fight before my next birthday and then I'll be back in September. It will be at the Sphere on Mexican Independence Day, and right now we are looking for an opponent for that. I've said before that I like the idea of completing the trilogy with Diaz, but he has a boxing match with Masvidal, so who knows. I'm looking for an opponent."
