Former UFC champion Conor McGregor has seemingly confirmed his return.
Undoubtedly the biggest superstar that the sport has ever seen, McGregor attracts a lot of eyeballs every time he fights. However, he has been in action a few times over the past years. He was last seen inside the octagon back in 2021.
In July of 2021, Conor McGregor took on Dustin Poirier in a highly anticipated trilogy. However, during the fight, he ended up breaking his leg. As a result, he was sidelined for years. He seemingly recovered last year and was billed to take on Michael Chandler, however the fight did not happen.
Earlier this year, McGregor claimed that he would be back in the summer but shortly afterwards, Dana White suggested that nothing is certain as of yet. This led to many suggesting that he would never be back again.
But thankfully for the fans, that doesn’t seem to be the case. Recently, McGregor told ESPN’s Marc Raimondi that he will be coming back this summer for a fight against Michael Chandler. He said:
“We got confirmation a few days ago that it’s all systems go, and ‘The Mac,’ ‘The Notorious’ will be returning to the UFC Octagon this summer.”
