McGregor won't be returning to the octagon this year

Dmitriy Kel July 21, 2023, 5:06 a.m.

Odi Attar, manager of the former UFC two-weight champion Conor McGregor, said that the next fight of his star client will take place only next year.

“People forget that Conor was one of the most tested athletes. Now we are actively negotiating with the UFC and USADA, and we are going to do everything right.

In nine out of ten cases, people spread false rumors about Conor. Now I can say with confidence that he expects to return in 2024. He's getting ready, and that's the main thing. The fight with Chandler makes sense, like the rest. Right now he is aiming for a fight with Michael. He took part in TUF, knowing that this fight would be next, ”Attar is quoted by MMA Junkie.

Recall that McGregor has not appeared in the octagon since July 2021, when he broke his leg in the first round of the fight with Dustin Poirier and was defeated by technical knockout.
