McGregor’s animosity towards the Dagestani team is not a recent development. Over time, the 35-year-old has consistently taken jabs at Khabib Nurmagomedov and his team, while Khabib has also engaged in responding to some of McGregor’s remarks. The rivalry between the two fighters remains an ongoing saga in the world of UFC.
The recent antics from the Notorious have sparked outrage among fans, with many expressing their displeasure at McGregor’s inappropriate behavior and branding him as delusional. His actions have garnered significant attention and mixed reactions from the UFC community.
As fans eagerly await Conor McGregor’s comeback, the former UFC champion seems to have missed several chances to return to the octagon. Failing to register for the USADA pool raised doubts about his much-anticipated fight with Michael Chandler. Although there are rumors about the bout happening later this year, some fans have lost hope of seeing it in 2023.
Speculations arise as some believe Dana White may overlook Conor’s testing requirements, given his recent comments about not caring about USADA’s opinion. As of now, McGregor has yet to start his official fight camp for a UFC return. Instead, he’s been spotted at parties and vacations with family and friends, raising doubts about his dedication to making a comeback.
