Dana White: Conor McGregor Will Not Fight This Year

Dana White Not worrying about Conor McGregor

Conor McGregor is not coming back to UFC but Dana White will try his best to bring him back. Conor McGregor was going to fight Michael Chandler in the upcoming UFC events but now it doesn’t seem to be turning into reality. Conor McGregor has been saying to his fans for years that he’ll return. For the first year, people believed him but now his fans have been waiting for more than 2 years and no one believes what he says.

Conor McGregor Prioritizing Business

It’s very dangerous for any influencer to not fulfill what he said to his fans because it can result in losing fan following. But UFC legend Conor McGregor has kept his fans and MMA enthusiasts waiting for his return many times. Many things make Conor McGregor a valuable fighter, like his famous controversy with Khabib Nurmagomedov. Other than that he is the only UFC fighter ever to hold two different weight division belts at once and still being at a good age to continue his career, fans have been eagerly waiting for his comeback.

McGregor had a valid reason for being away for a year. Because he broke his leg in 2021 during a fight with Dustin Poirier. While he was on a break, he gave time to his businesses and they performed very well, now he is a Multimillionaire because of his growing businesses. This shift in focus is why Dana White has said that Conor’s priorities have changed, even though White has continued to try to get him back into the octagon.

Dana White’s Press Conference

During UFC 305 week, Dana White held a press conference to talk about different things to discuss about UFC’s upcoming fights. A reporter asked about Conor McGregor’s next fight, and White’s response, while not surprising, was still a bit shocking. It was especially frustrating for both Conor’s fans and critics.

“We talked. We talked. We didn’t meet up but we talked, and yeah, he wants to fight. So we’ll figure it out. But not this year. He won’t fight this year.” People are now asking different questions like they are wondering if something else happened to the notorious or is just the pinky toe’s issue.

Chandler No Longer Waiting

After the latest update, the opinions of people are changing online, and Conor’s fans are beginning to worry that something might be wrong with him. Overall, the reaction has been one of frustration, but now people begin to understand that Conor just wants to do business. So they are fed up with the lies and they have now lost their interest in the upcoming fight.

Michael Chandler waited for a long time to fight Conor McGregor, and he did not want to fight other fighters until he fought Conor McGregor. But now things are changing as Chandler decided to remove himself from the mix. He expressed his thoughts as he tweeted that he wouldn’t keep waiting for Conor McGregor, which got people thinking about what might have happened.
