The Official UFC 196 Promo Will Give You Chills

UFC 196 could be a truly historic event, as featherweight champion Conor McGregor moves up to lightweight to battle Rafael dos Anjos in the main event. The brand new official promo video is here…

Where will you be on March 5, 2016? If you’ve even heard of mixed martial arts, the chances are you’ll know about the stacked event going down on that long awaited date. The main event features a highly anticipated lightweight championship bout, as Conor McGregor puts the featherweight division on hold to face his bitter rival and lightweight boss, Rafael dos Anjos. Ever since the ‘Go Big’ presser last November, the two elite combatants have been at loggerheads.

For Rafael dos Anjos, it’s a chance to avenge his countryman Jose Aldo, whom ‘The Notorious’ destroyed with a single punch at UFC 194. The 13-second spectacle was one of the craziest moments in modern MMA, and was very similar to another fighter on UFC 196’s schedule, Holly Holm.

Love him or hate him, it’s clear that the mixed martial arts world is fixated with Conor McGregor. Both his antics inside and outside the UFC octagon are constantly followed, and his role as the biggest MMA heel in Jon Jones‘ place has been a smooth transition.

His value to the promotion is unquestionable, and they’ve really pulled out all the stops for the official UFC 196 promo video, which has been gathering some serious heat.
