Dana White: Conor McGregor gets 80,000-seat Croke Park stadium event with UFC 194 win over Jose Aldo

There's no telling what kind of antics "Notorious" will provide across the pond (if) his first featherweight title defense is to take place in Dublin, Ireland.

By the looks of it, Conor McGregor could be fighting in his home country of Ireland sooner rather than later.

The outspoken Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) interim featherweight titleholder fights adversary Jose Aldo in a unification match in the UFC 194 pay-per-view (PPV) main event on Dec. 12, 2015 (full card here). If he is to topple "Junior" inside MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, only then would promotion president Dana White move the Irishman's first title defense to Croke Park in Dublin.
