Formed undisputed UFC lightweight and featherweight champion, Conor McGregor has defended his reigns atop both divisions between 2015 and 2017, pointing to the fact he was stripped of both crowns – rather than suffering defeats inside the Octagon.
McGregor, a former undisputed lightweight and featherweight champion under the banner of the UFC, has been sidelined since he headlined at UFC 264 back in July 2021, fracturing his left tibia and fibula in a first round doctor’s stoppage TKO loss against Dustin Poirier.
Yet to return to active competition, nor the USADA testing pool since the aftermath of that fight with Poirier, McGregor featured as an opposing coach on The Ultimate Fighter 31 earlier this year – ahead of an expected Octagon return against Michael Chandler.
