Former two-weight champion Conor McGregor declares he’s ready to make his highly anticipated return to the octagon. Read on to learn more about his comeback plans.
In a surprising turn of events, former two-weight champion Conor McGregor has announced that he is ready to make his highly anticipated return to the octagon. The Dubliner made the announcement during a sparring session in New York City with Bellator MMA welterweight Dillon Danis.
McGregor, who has been sidelined since his loss to Dustin Poirier at UFC 264, has been itching to get back into the cage. Despite suffering a first-round doctor’s stoppage TKO due to a leg injury, McGregor is determined to prove that he still has what it takes to compete at the highest level.
Earlier this year, McGregor served as an opposing coach on The Ultimate Fighter 31 reality television show. However, his performance on the show has been less than stellar, with a record of 0-7. This has raised questions about his ability to perform at his previous level of dominance.
Despite the doubts surrounding his current form, McGregor has yet to officially book his next fight. There have been rumors of a potential welterweight pairing with Michael Chandler, but nothing has been confirmed. McGregor’s absence from the USADA anti-doping testing pool has also raised eyebrows, as he has yet to submit any samples for testing.
UFC president Dana White has not ruled out the possibility of granting McGregor an anti-doping exemption to expedite his return to the Octagon. This has led to speculation that McGregor may be looking for a quickfire comeback without going through the mandatory six-month testing period.
During his time in New York City, McGregor has been training with his teammate Dillon Danis. The two have been posting sparring footage, showcasing McGregor’s skills and readiness to fight. When asked about his training, McGregor confidently stated, ‘I’m ready to fight again.’
While McGregor is eager to get back in the cage, he made it clear that he is not interested in fighting Mack Zuckerberg or Elon Musk, despite his previous comments expressing interest in a potential bout with either of them.
Conor McGregor’s return to the UFC is highly anticipated, and fans are eagerly awaiting news of his next fight. Will he be able to recapture his previous glory and reclaim his status as one of the sport’s biggest stars? Only time will tell.
