The previous UFC title contender is not bought on Conor McGregor combating on the White Home card.
McGregor hasn’t fought since 2021, however the UFC continues to make use of him to advertise his promotional debut on Paramount+. “Infamous” is the largest title to ever compete within the UFC and has vowed to struggle once more. One thing like this hasn’t occurred since he broke his leg towards Dustin Poirier of their trilogy struggle.
Loads has occurred on the earth of MMA since McGregor final fought. That features Poirier’s retirement. Even when the Irishman had been to return, Chel Sonnen would not imagine he can be on the UFC White Home card. He shared that prediction when he spoke with Daniel Cormier throughout an episode of “Good Man/Unhealthy Man” (h/t MMAJunkie).
“I do not suppose Conner will ever arrive on the White Home,” Sonnen stated. “However let’s face that concept. Can Conor manipulate the media even after he misses out? He is been pretending for 5 years that he is coming again. If the White Home comes and goes, can he fake, ‘Oh, I did not come there, however you may see me in November, you may see me subsequent January,’ or will that be McGregor’s final ploy?”
Cormier shared a distinct view than his colleagues. The UFC Corridor of Famer really thinks McGregor ought to be on the historic card except he’s really executed with skilled MMA competitors.
“(If) he would not go to the White Home, it is over,” Cormier stated. “As a result of here is the deal: love him or hate him, love him or hate him, the White Home card goes to be the largest card we have ever had, nevertheless it’s the cardboard that may very well be the largest card we have ever seen.” It may be a stacked card, and it should be a terrific card, however the one method it should be the largest card we have ever seen is that if Conor McGregor is on it.”
McGregor claimed he would finally meet Michael Chandler contained in the Octagon. The 2 had been scheduled to satisfy at UFC 303 in June 2024, however the struggle was canceled after McGregor injured his toe.
