The two were originally scheduled to fight again at UFC 200 on July 9 before McGregor was pulled from the card for his refusal to promote the event.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If McGregor loses to Diaz again, it could seriously damage his untouchable persona. But Diaz said taking that risk is what professional fighting is all about.&amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 &lt;strong&gt;Cristiano met Conor McGregor and put him to shame with his abs&lt;/strong&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u201CIf you don\u2019t want to fight a guy who beat you, or show you\u2019re better than the guy everybody thinks is better than you, then I don\u2019t know what you\u2019re in this sport for,\u201D Diaz told Fox Sports\u2019 Jason Whitlock on Tuesday. \u201CBecause that\u2019s what I\u2019m in it for. That\u2019s what I was in it for in the beginning\u2014to let everyone know I\u2019m the baddest dude there is.\u201D\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;McGregor and Diaz will fight at UFC 202 on Aug. 20 in Las Vegas.&amp;nbsp;\r\n&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
