The Ultimate organization lived up to the growing fame of Conor McGregor and presented the Irishman as the big star of the new UFC 196 trailer, an event in which the “Notório” will face the Brazilian Rafael dos Anjos for the lightweight title.

the commercial shows all the protagonists of the event – McGregor, Dos Anjos, Holly holm e Miesha Tate – speaking in an empty octagon, but it is the Irishman who has the most time on the scene and is responsible for ending the video.
Another recurring demand from Conor that was met by Ultimate was the inclusion of his featherweight belt in the event's graphic arts. Now, the headline for UFC 196 says “Champion x Champion” and shows the Irishman sporting his title, even though he is the challenger in the fight.
UFC 196 takes place on March 5th, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, in Las Vegas (USA). The duel between Rafael dos Anjos e Conor McGregor will be the main fight of the night, while Holly holm x Miesha Tate – worth the women's bantamweight belt – will be the co-main event.
