Doubts About McGregor’s Fighting Future
With McGregor’s recent USADA fiasco and controversies, fans have expressed doubts about his fighting future. Many believe that he may never fight again, while others speculate that he might engage in fights outside the Octagon. These doubts have been fueled by McGregor’s prolonged absence from the UFC.
