While Dos Anjos is a dangerous foe, it is important to note that McGregor’s featherweight title will not be on the line in his next fight. Instead, Dos Anjos’ lightweight title will be on the line. That means, win or lose, Conor McGregor remains the UFC featherweight champion.

Dos Anjos' belt will be up for grabs at UFC 197. Conor's won't be.
