UFC CEO Dana White is not positive about the potential return of Conor McGregor. The superstar pulled out of his upcoming fight with just weeks to go.

“Conor’s going to be 36 in July,” White recently said. “He’s got plenty of money and I don’t ever think that guys like that – Jon Jones, who knows? Maybe he’ll fight again. Maybe he won’t. Conor McGregor – maybe he’ll fight again, maybe he won’t. You never know with some of the guys that get to that level. You never know when you’re going to see them again.”

“You get hurt a lot easier, more injuries happen than it did when you were young, and you’re less willing to step in there with an injury than you did when you were young and hungry and broke.”

Conor McGregor has been out of action since 2021

Conor McGregor broke his leg in the fight with Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 in July, 2021, and not fought since.

The Irishman is a former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion, making him the first fighter in UFC history to hold titles in two weight classes simultaneously. McGregor has competed just four times in MMA since he won the lightweight strap from Eddie Alvarez at UFC 205 in November 2016.
