Conor McGregor Voices Frustration Amid Ongoing UFC Return Delays Conor McGregor is making it clear that he’s tired of waiting. #conormcgregor #danawhite The former two-division UFC champion hasn’t fought since breaking his ankle in the 2021 trilogy fight against Dustin Poirier. Ever since, “The Notorious” has hinted at a comeback, repeatedly assuring fans that his return to the Octagon is close. This week, McGregor added fuel to the speculation with a now-deleted social media post that read: “Day 15 of ‘I accept, send the contract.’” The comment suggested frustration over stalled negotiations, especially after McGregor recently claimed he had agreed to face a lesser-known opponent. However, when asked about the situation at the UFC Houston post-fight press conference, UFC president Dana White denied that anything was finalized. “If it was done and he had accepted, I would announce it,” White said. With the UFC White House event set for June, many expected McGregor to headline the historic card. Now, uncertainty surrounds those plans, raising questions about whether his comeback will be pushed back once again. Michael Chandler had long been considered the likely opponent following years of public exchanges between the two. Although White previously downplayed that matchup, McGregor recently reiterated that Chandler is still his preferred choice, replying to a fan: “It should be that, yes.” Despite the contract drama, McGregor continues to train and post footage from the gym, maintaining that he’s ready to compete. Will 2026 finally mark McGregor’s return? Is this simply negotiation tactics — or is something bigger happening behind the scenes? And if he does step back into the Octagon, who should he fight? The saga continues. Subscribe here: Watch our most recent video!
