Former UFC champion in two weight categories, Conor McGregor, has recently offered significant insights into the trajectory of his illustrious career. The charismatic Irishman, renowned for his polarizing persona and explosive fighting style, revealed that a diverse range of opportunities and ongoing discussions are currently shaping his next moves within the combat sports landscape.
McGregor acknowledged a burgeoning interest from various parties keen on seeing him engage in bare-knuckle combat. This revelation hints at the broader appeal and marketability of the superstar beyond traditional mixed martial arts. Simultaneously, “The Notorious” confirmed ongoing dialogues with the Ultimate Fighting Championship, indicating that a formal agreement or a new contractual arrangement is in the works. McGregor candidly shared his perspective, stating:
“There are people who want me to fight bare-knuckle. I know that UFC is drafting a new contract for me or something like that. I still don’t know what will happen. Let’s see. I miss fighting and can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings.”
This statement underscores McGregor’s current position—a highly sought-after athlete weighing multiple high-profile options. While the specifics of a potential new UFC contract remain under wraps, his comments clearly signal a period of active negotiation and strategic planning. Despite the inherent uncertainty surrounding his immediate future, McGregor`s enduring passion for competition is palpable. His declaration of missing fighting and eagerness for what lies ahead strongly suggests an imminent return to the fray, whether it be in the iconic Octagon, a bare-knuckle ring, or an entirely new venture within the dynamic world of combat sports.
