The conversations continue to circulate that former UFC -double champion Conor McGregor will return to the Octagon for the Mega event of the White House next year.
Last week it was announced by the President of the United States Donald Trump that the UFC will set up a mega event on the White House site on July 4 next year.
The news immediately sent fans in Meltdown, because it is guaranteed to be the most spectacular event that the promotion has ever applied, and UFC boss Dana White claimed that it will be 'the bulb on steroids'.
Not long after the shock caught, White revealed that his dream head event for the map would be a heavyweight title fight between Jon Jones and Tom Aspinall, and Jones outlined his plan to return for the event despite his recent retirement.
However, the UFC boss does not have the potential to see Conor McGregor and Jon Jones Share the stage sharing after McGregor also claimed that he would return to the event.

Conor McGregor Drug Test Update looks gloomy despite recent claims
Although Jones recently retired and fans rumbled that he did not stop fighting Aspinall, it was recently confirmed by White that he has already introduced the test pool again to return.
And last Tuesday it was speculated by the BKFC business partner of Conor McGregor, David Feldman, that McGregor also introduced the test pool when he confirmed the Irish's plan to return.
“He told me personally, he whispered in my ear:” I am in the test pool, I am getting ready to make my comeback. I'm going to fight on that (white house) card, then I will fight another fight, then we can talk, “Feldman recalled his conversation with McGregor during an interview with Ariel Helwani.
Although 'the notorious' words can be true to re-enter the test pool, according to the UFC-Anti-Doping database, McGregor has to register a test session this year.
The last time that the former UFC Double Champion registered a drug test was in September last year, marking 10 months since he last registered a test session.
McGregor was planned to make his long -awaited return against Michael Chandler last June and came back into the test pool after a year. Despite that, he apparently chose back when his fight against Chandler fell through.
McGregor was still able to return to the historic one-of-one event
Despite the fact that the Irishman has not registered a test session this year, this currently has no influence on his plan to compete at the event of July 4 next year.
Fighters must be in the test pool for at least six months before they can fight in the Octagon, so that McGregor can be enough time to be tested before the historical event.
