UFC President Dana White confirmed the date and venue for the fight to Yahoo! Sports on Monday.

In addition, White stated that Ronda Rousey will not be on this card and a date for her next title defense has not been determined at this time.

Aldo and McGregor were initially scheduled to meet last month at UFC 189. However, Aldo pulled out of the event due to a rib injury and McGregor ended up defeating Chad Mendes to win the interim featherweight title.

More details on UFC 194 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas are expected to be announced in the coming weeks by the UFC.
