Conor McGregor Comeback Soon, This Is 3 Fights That Will Be Experienced
JAKARTA - UFC fighter Conor McGregor has confirmed that he will return to the octagon. The Irish man even set a date when to return to fight in the UFC arena.
The 34-year-old fighter has also determined three fights to be tested
McGregor has been out since July 2021 after breaking his leg in the first half against Dustin Poirier. He had wanted a comeback several times, but it was canceled.
Now, the former second-class champion claims to be against Chandler before the year ends. He will also face Gaethje BMF before realizing the trilogy against Nate Diaz.
"Chandler next, December. And then Gaethje BMF. And then we will make the Nate (Diz) trilogy," McGregor told talkSPORT.
However, McGregor's fight against Chandler is now threatened. The reason is, McGregor had to complete testing from the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) for six months, unless he was given a special exception.
Some time ago, McGregor had threatened to cancel the fight over this matter.
UFC President Dana White was forced to speak and confirm that Chandler will be next for McGregor.
"I spoke with Conor. Whether yesterday or the day before. And yes, he is ready to fight," said White.
