White says McGregor ‘probably’ gets title shot at 155; manager notes ‘dozen’ other options

What’s next for Conor McGregor? It’s been a couple of weeks following his big win over Donald Cerrone, and if you ask the UFC President, he’s still pushing for a title shot against the winner of Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Tony Ferguson next.

“Probably the winner of Khabib and Tony,” Dana White said about McGregor’s next bout on The Jim Rome Show (transcript via MMA Fighting).

“He looked unbelievable in this fight,” White said. “And for people that are saying Cowboy is shot, Cowboy is this—Cowboy is one of the best and one of the baddest to ever do it and he showed up to win that night and Conor McGregor ran through him like a freight train.
