Conor McGregor Claims Reignited Passion: ‘I’ve Engaged in a Spiritual Journey’

Former two-division UFC champ Conor McGregor suggests he has turned a corner, personally and professionally.

During the BKFC 83 press conference Thursday ahead of Chris Camozzi vs. Alessio Sakara in Italy this weekend, company part-owner McGregor appeared after a few weeks away from social media. Nearly three weeks ago, the Irishman posted on social media, “Hey folks online, I’m out of here for a bit, see you again soon,” and has not made any public statements since then. That post came a day before it was announced “Notorious” was suspended 18 months by the promotion and its anti-doping partner for multiple whereabouts violations.
