“Obviously I’m not going to discuss terms of the deal, but let’s just say my trip to Stockton didn’t go well,” White told TMZ.
White and Fertitta also visited with McGregor earlier this week, a meeting the Irishman characterized as ”a good conversation like it always is.”
The target date for the rematch is reportedly UFC 202, which is expected to take place on Aug. 20. Diaz defeated McGregor via second-round submission at UFC 196 on March 5. Their rematch was supposed to take place at UFC 200, but the bout was scrapped when McGregor balked at fulfilling all of his promotional requirements.
