Conor McGregor was planning to fight three times in 2020, with the Irishman targeting a blockbuster rematch with UFC rival Khabib Nurmagomedov by the end of the year.
Right now, however, ‘The Notorious’ is in lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic and Khabib is out of his UFC 249 title defense against Tony Ferguson.
UFC president Dana White says Nurmagomedov will likely be out of action until September, with Tony Ferguson and Justin Gaethje fighting for the interim lightweight title in the his absence.
This new schedule leaves McGregor out of the lightweight title picture for the foreseeable future, and White admitted he isn’t sure when ‘The Notorious’ will get his next crack at Khabib.
