Conor McGregor Sparks Comeback Buzz After Changing His Profile Picture Ahead of Potential UFC Return

Former UFC double champion Conor McGregor has changed his profile picture on X to a UFC 246 fight photo, further reigniting hope for his long-awaited octagon return.

The Irishman, who was on a social media hiatus for the past few weeks and also deactivated his Instagram account, recently opened up about how a 36-hour ibogaine treatment showed him the light.

McGregor’s posts about his return have elicited a range of responses from fans. His coach, however, told MMA reporter Ariel Helwani that his pupil is concentrating on his return, arriving at the gym timely, and has also asked for suggestions to ramp up the training process.
