Conor McGregor continues to make daring declarations about his plans to return to the UFC, and over the weekend gave his most detailed highway map but.
After being out of motion since July 2021 attributable to restoration from a damaged leg, former two-division champion McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC) claims he’s going to be back in the octagon in December for his anticipated bout with opposing “The Final Fighter 31” coach Michael Chandler.
Regardless of there being no affirmation McGregor has re-entered the USADA testing pool, which is a requirement for his comeback to be locked in, “The Infamous” says a UFC 296 matchup with Chandler will kick off a three-fight schedule for himself which is able to subsequently see him face “BMF” champ Justin Gaethje, then a trilogy combat with longtime rival Nate Diaz.
Is there any cause to imagine all or any of this may occur, although, given McGregor’s current historical past of empty actions following his phrases?
MMA Junkie’s “Spinning Again Clique” panel of Dan Tom, Nolan King and Brian Garcia joined host “Beautiful” George Garcia to debate the state of affairs and the fact of McGregor’s doubtlessly looming return.
