Makhachev does not believe that McGregor will return to the UFC

UFC lightweight champion Russian Islam Makhachev responded to the possible return of 36-year-old Irishman Conor McGregor to the promotion.

Earlier, UFC head Dana White said in an interview on the New York Post Sports YouTube channel that McGregor would fight in the UFC in early 2025.

— Is Conor’s possible return funny?

– This is already fantastic. He tries to stay afloat with his tongue. “He’s more in clubs than in training,” Match TV quotes Makhachev as saying.

McGregor’s last fight in the UFC took place in July 2021, when he lost early to American Dustin Poirier. The Irish fighter has 22 wins and 6 losses in mixed martial arts; he previously held UFC championship belts in two weight categories.

    TYSON FURY: “Usyk will give up his champion title and there is a reason for that”

    Former world heavyweight champion, British Tyson Rage I am sure that WBC champion Oleksandr Usyk will leave his belt vacant due to the lack of interesting opponents:

    “Usyk will not fight opponents ranked in the WBC because it is impossible to make good money from these fights. How much money will he make by fighting Agit Kabayel or Lawrence Okolie?”

    Frankly, these are insufficient. After making a ton of money fighting Tyson Fury, you don’t want to go back to fights that have no financial benefit.

    Usik will therefore give up his WBC title and Agit Kabayel will become the full world champion. He will be able to defend against (German boxer) Okolie or Moses Itauma,” Fury said on the DAZN platform.

    Kabayel’s next opponent will be Poland’s undefeated representative Damian Knyba. The fight for the WBC interim title will take place in Germany on January 10.
