Conor McGregor has sent love to the Miss Grand United Kingdom as his return still hangs in doubt.
McGregor remains to be one of the biggest stars in combat sports despite being out of action for over two years. He was last seen inside the octagon back in July 2021 in a trilogy against Dustin Poirier. On the night, the Irishman suffered a nasty leg break and has been out of action since then.
While Conor McGregor is fit to compete now, his return still hangs in doubt. Interestingly, he has been billed to take on Michael Chandler since last year. The two acted as opposing coaches in the last season of The Ultimate Fighter. However, that fight has not fruited yet.
As his UFC return remains unannounced, McGregor recently showered love at Miss Grand UK, Chloe Ellman-Baker. He took to his Instagram stories and said:
“Miss UK at Cheltenham for forged love this girl”

Speaking of the same, UFC legend Matt Brown also seems to ride the same boat. During an interview with Damon Martin, Brown was asked to comment on Conor McGregor’s return. He said:
“Well, the first problem [regarding the delay] was he broke that shin bone. He was recovering from that. That was one of the reasons we hadn’t [announced his next fight]. The other problem is, he’s f****** rich.”
Furthermore, Matt Brown suggested that why would anyone fight if they had hundreds of millions of dollars like Conor McGregor? He said:
“I mean it’s pretty obvious right. I don’t think it’s some mystical. The dude’s got hundreds of millions in the bank. Would you fight if you had hundreds of millions of dollars in the bank?”

That said, Matt Brown has certainly raised a valid point. As a result, it’s safe to say that hopes are slim regarding a potential return of Conor McGregor. It will be interesting to see if and when he returns to the octagon.
