[schwarz][/sConor McGregor is no longer headlining UFC 200, but the brash Irishman continues to dominate the build-up to the event. Jon Jones rematch with Daniel Cormier for the light heavyweight title was officially announced as the new main event on Wednesday, with a press conference to promote the event taking place at Madison Square Garden later in the day. McGregor was absent from the stage after being pulled from the card over his failure to fulfil media obligations but beleaguered UFC president Dana White was nonetheless forced to field multiple questions about the featherweight champion. Conor McGregor is not pleased about being pulled from UFC 200 White maintains McGregor has only himself to blame for the cancellation of his much-anticipated rematch with Nate Diaz.I didnt prevent Conor from fighting at UFC 200, White said. Everybody, if you look at [last weeks] news conference... Joanna Jedrzejczyk came in from Poland. Claudia Gadelha came in from Brazil. This is what we do. This is how it works.I didnt prevent him from fighting at UFC 200. He knew what the deal was. I told him what the deal was. He opted to do that. UFC president Dana White stands between Daniel Cormier (L) and Jon Jones as they square off during media availability for UFC 200 White sidestepped a question about how much of a financial loss the UFC would take for their decision to withdraw their star attraction and confirmed the company has no plans to lower the price of UFC 200 tickets.McGregors withdrawal has been met with disapproval by a large proportion of UFC fans and White has been acutely aware of that fact on social media by the Irishmans legions of supporters.An indication of the McGregors popularity is illustrated by the amount of people who tuned in to watch a live stream of the press conference for his fight with Diaz in February. That achieved a peak audience of over 360,000, while Wednesdays event topped out at just over 33,000. Jose Aldo (L) will fight Frankie Edgar for the right to face Conor McGregor To be left scrambling to announce a new main event the day tickets go on sale was not what White envisioned when he announced the card with much fanfare nearly 12 months ago.When asked if he was disappointed by fan and media reaction to the card he has put together, White said: We expect it to be big and it will be big.He did reveal there could be another fight added, seemingly admitting the UFC are not unaware of the apathy in some quarters to their revised line-up.We just added this fight to the card and we are not done, White added. Conor McGregor will be absent from UFC 200 The rift between McGregor and the UFC seems wide at the moment and White confirmed he has had no contact with the 27-year-old in recent days.Despite this, White was adamant McGregor will be back in the octagon relatively soon, just not at UFC 200.Conors going to fight again, White said. Hes going to fight at UFC 201, 202, 203, whatever the deal might be.Listen, 200 is the fight everybodys been looking forward to for a long time. It is what it is. The show is going to roll on and Conors going to fight again. Also See: McGregor replaced by Jones Diaz drops McGregor hint Yannick Ngakoue Jersey .

OTTAWA, Ontario -- World champion figure skater Patrick Chan has a new coaching team.Renowned coach and choreographer Marina Zoueva, who mentored Canadian ice dancers Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir to Olympic and world titles, will work with Oleg Epstein and Johnny Johns on Chans team this season. Chan will train in Canton, Michigan, at Arctic Edge Arena.I am excited to be working with Marina, Oleg and Johnny. They each bring so much to the table and have such a rich history of coaching world and Olympic competitors in all the disciplines, Chan said in a statement. I am looking forward to the season ahead and my first event, the Finlandia Trophy in just a couple weeks.Chan, a 25-year-old Toronto native, and former coach Kathy Johnson ended their partnership last month after four years together. The two had planned to relocate to Vancouver this summer, but plans fell through and Chan and Johnson ended upp in Canton instead.ddddddddddddChan had already been working with Epstein while still in his partnership with Johnson. Chan said he benefited from the quick, informal pointers Epstein gave in between coaching his ice dancing clients.He would give his two cents: `my shoulders were high, my step on my axel wasnt as forward as it could have been,` Chan said last month. Off of those pointers my axel went up another level of consistency and confidence.Chan, who placed fifth at the world championships in Boston in 2016, starts his season at the Finlandia Trophy in Finland from Oct. 6-9, a senior B event before the Grand Prix season begins.He usually begins his year with the Japan Open but chose Finlandia to help him competitively as he prepares for his final Olympics in 2018.
