Conor McGregor teases 'no name' foe for UFC comeback
Field Level Media
Former two-division champion Conor McGregor claims he's ready to return to the UFC, and this time against a "no name" foe.
Sidelined since âJuly 2021, McGregor has been rather vocal about returning to the Octagon.
McGregor (22-6) went so far âas to take to social media on â Saturday and note that he's just waiting for a âcontract to sign.
"It's a no name up next â for me âpossibly, folks. ... I ACCEPT. âSend the contract, lads," the 37-year-old Irishman wrote in a ânow-deleted post.
UFC CEO Dana White poured â cold water â on âMcGregor's claim, however.
"If it was done and he accepted it, I would announce it," White said.
McGregor has not competed in the Octagon since sustaining a broken leg â in a loss to Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 in Las Vegas in 2021.
His planned bout with Michael Chandler âfor UFC 303 in â2024 was canceled after McGregor withdrew with an injury.
