If Dana White has plans for Conor McGregor, he’s keeping those cards close to the chest.
It’s hard to blame the UFC president given that McGregor marches to the beat of his own drum and that there is so much uncertainty surrounding the future of “The Notorious”. Regardless speaking to TMZ Sports, White sounded optimistic that fans will see McGregor compete soon.
“He’ll either be back this year or early next year,” White said. “We’ll see how this whole thing plays out in September.”
The September event that White is referring to is UFC 242, which will be headlined by a lightweight championship bout between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Dustin Poirier.
