Conor McGregor’s comeback is finally on the horizon after much speculation and setbacks. Since his last octagon appearance in 2021, where he suffered a TKO loss due to a broken ankle against Dustin Poirier, fans have eagerly awaited his return. Hopes were raised during TUF 31, but an issue with USADA dashed those hopes.

Recently, UFC 303 seemed promising with McGregor set to headline against Michael Chandler. However, a pre-fight injury sidelined him once again, leaving fans devastated. Yet, Ariel Helwani’s recent insights suggest a potential return in December. On ‘The MMA Hour’, Helwani hinted at a McGregor vs. Chandler matchup slated for the December pay-per-view event, igniting excitement among fans who had almost lost hope.
McGregor himself confirmed his 2024 return after discussions with Dana White, reinforcing Helwani’s prediction. Furthermore, Jon Anik, at the UFC Hall of Fame induction ceremony, expressed confidence not only in McGregor’s comeback this year but also in the possibility of him fighting twice within eight months.
With optimism building once more around McGregor’s return, the stage is set for whether ‘Mystic Mac’ can reclaim his place in the octagon with the drama that usually surrounds him.
