Filed under: Featured , News , UFC Conor McGregor became the 11th fighter in UFC history to be stripped of a championship belt when news broke this past weekend that the organization had revoked his featherweight title , ending a reign that began with a 13-second knockout of Jose Aldo at UFC 194 in December. The organization opted to strip McGregor (21-3 MMA, 9-1 UFC) of the 145-pound belt in order to settle the chaotic waters of the division and set up an interim title headliner between Max Holloway and Anthony Pettis at UFC 206, which takes place Dec. 10 at Air Canada Centre in Toronto. “The Notorious” has yet to comment on the situation, although his longtime head coach John Kavanagh made it quite clear he wasn’t happy with the UFC’s decision to take one of McGregor’s belt.
