White explained why McGregor's return is being delayed

UFC CEO Dana White explained why the next fight of the former champion of the promotion in two divisions Conor McGregor still not announced

“First of all, Conor is coming back from one of the hardest injuries you can come back from. This is the main problem now. The second is that Conor doesn’t need the damn money.

I know that he is training, but I don’t know what level of training he is at. I don’t know if he can hit at full strength now. To say anything specific, I have to know that the guy is in a full-fledged training camp and that he is ready,” said the functionary in an interview with Kevin Iole.

Let us remember that 35-year-old McGregor last performed in July 2021 against Dustin Poirier. In that fight, the Irishman was defeated by technical knockout, breaking his leg in the first round.
