Fans are excitedly anticipating the comeback of the most entertaining combat sports athlete of our time, the former UFC two-division champion, Conor McGregor.

Since last year, there has been a lot of buzz and speculation surrounding the comeback of Conor McGregor, the former UFC two-division champion. Initially, McGregor was scheduled to make his return in the summer of 2023, but now it seems like it has been pushed back to the end of the same year.

Fans were buzzing with excitement when the UFC 300 card was revealed, as they anticipated McGregor's highly anticipated comeback. However, much to their disappointment, McGregor's return was delayed once more.


Currently, Conor McGregor is busy attending different promotional events for his upcoming Hollywood debut, Road House, in which he is playing the negative lead role. A clip shared by the popular Twitter handle, Championship Rounds, shows McGregor discussing his UFC return while out promoting the movie alongside the cast.

"I'm eager for my return. We're in the first quarter of 2024, and there's still a good chunk of the year left. I've got two fights left on my contract, and negotiations are ongoing," McGregor expressed.
