Photo: Conor McGregor / Instagram   UFC President Dana White has said that if Conor McGregor returns to fighting, it will happen sometime next year. McGregor hasn’t fought in the UFC since 2021, when he broke his leg in a loss to Dustin Poirier . A planned comeback fight in June against Michael Chandler was canceled after McGregor broke his toe. McGregor’s name has been in the news recently for a different reason. Last month, an Irish jury found him liable for assault in a civil case. The jury ruled McGregor assaulted Nikita Hand at a Dublin hotel in 2018 and ordered him to pay nearly €250,000 in damages and legal fees. McGregor denied the accusations and has said he will appeal the decision. At a news conference after UFC 310, White declined to comment on the case. When asked about McGregor’s UFC status, White said, “He hasn’t been fighting here in how long? If he does fight, it will be sometime next year.” Photo: Conor McGregor / Instagram   The UFC has an Athlete Conduc...

Photo: Dan Hooker, Michael Chandler / Instagram   UFC lightweight contender Dan Hooker is not impressed with Michael Chandler ’s post-fight callout following his loss at UFC 309. Chandler, who was defeated by Charles Oliveira last Saturday, used his microphone time to call out potential opponents, including Conor McGregor and Max Holloway for the BMF title. Chandler, 38, had hoped a win over Oliveira would bring him closer to an undisputed title fight. However, after his loss, he pivoted to other options, suggesting a fight with Holloway for the BMF belt or reigniting his rivalry with McGregor. “I had a bunch of callouts,” Chandler said in the Octagon. “Maybe Max Holloway for the BMF belt. Or, Conor McGregor... Come back and beat me, if you can.” Photo: Dan Hooker / Instagram   Hooker, who was knocked out by Chandler in 2021 but has since climbed the lightweight rankings, dismissed Chandler’s BMF title ambitions. “I don’t like Chandler calling for the BMF title,” Hooker...

Photo: Conor McGregor (Instagram) Conor McGregor hasn’t fought in over three years, but many UFC fans hope he will come back in 2025. McGregor’s last fight was in 2021, when he lost to Dustin Poirier twice.  Since then, McGregor has focused on his business ventures, including his Forged Irish Stout and his involvement with Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC). UFC president Dana White thinks McGregor will return to the UFC next year.  McGregor was supposed to fight Michael Chandler earlier this year after their appearance on The Ultimate Fighter , but an injury forced McGregor to pull out. Chandler has since moved on to other potential fights, like a rematch with Charles Oliveira .
