Here are the details of today’s UFC 205 press conference, featuring Conor McGregor

Now we've got a motherflippin' fight card.

UFC 205 has been through the wars but, after some frantic negotiating and scrambling over the past few days, the return to New York is unmissable. This morning arrived with the confirmation that Conor McGregor's lightweight title shot against Eddie Alvarez at the Madison Square Garden pay-per-view event. There are now three title fights set up and four champions [McGregor holds the featherweight strap] involved. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/780658653707796480 The main card [below] is ridiculously stacked. So stacked that the likes of Rashad Evans, Frankie Edgar and Tim Kennedy are in the prelims.

• Eddie Alvarez (Lightweight champion) vs. Conor McGregor
• Tyron Woodley (Welterweight champion) vs. Stephen Thompson
• Joanna Jędrzejczyk (Straw-weight champion) vs. Karolina Kowalkiewicz
• Donald Cerrone vs. Kelvin Gastelum
• Miesha Tate vs. Raquel Pennington
