Not everything's a conspiracy theory.
I think it's nice of Conor to help Cain sell a few PPVs ;)

Conor and Diego will sell it.
Diego is a big latino name.
They have already exchanged words.
The UFC have everything to lose from this because Diego can potentially be dangerous at every point of the fight (Melendez almost got finished by him) and if he manages to bank on an uppercut out of nowhere or god forbid this fight goes to the judges (I have absolutely zero faith in a Mexican commission, especially after seeing how the New Mexico one operated) they've got themselves a serious dent in their new shiny monemaking toy.

Norman Parke is also technically Irish (Northern) as well.

Don't get me wrong, I agree this is a mismatch. I even think Conor finishes him within 2 rounds so I'm not too worried about judging. The only think I'm disputing is that this match is for the sole purpose of building Conor up. This isn't the UFC carving him out an easy path by intent (even if that's what ends up happening de facto).
There's that too, but major reasoning, imo is giving the Mexico card (which already has a headliner who doesn't really pump **** up and will have a few TUF unknowns and not very talented fillers) a ****load of oomf.
This is the first card of their long awaited Mexican market penetration. They want to knock it out the park. Hyping up Conor that much more is the added bonus, not the main reason.

It's excitement, build-up ... seriously - what's gonna get you pumped about Cain's pre-fight interviews? What are they gonna put in the promos of what they want to be one of the biggest cards of the year? Randon TUF Latino-America winner? Cain explaining how he's going to win? **** that ****, Conor and Diego spewing **** back-and-forth! Now that's a promo they want on their first Mexican card. A ****load of crazy-ass staredowns leading up to the fight. People are going to want to see this fight no matter who they thinks gonna win by the time those two are done working each other into a frenzy.
You KNOW Cain's gonna bring it on the night, you KNOW it's gonna be an awesome fight, but he doesn't get you pumped before the fight, he doesn't draw you in. Neither does Werdum.
