The return from Conor McGregor to MMA training has not confidently filled fans about his potential UFC -Comback.
McGregor did not enter the Octagon in more than four years. The former featherweight and lightweight champion was last in action at UFC 264 in July 2021, when a broken leg brought his trilogy against Dustin Poirier into an anti -limactic end.
Six months earlier, McGregor suffered his first knockout loss in MMA, which means that his victory over Donald Cerrone in 2020 will remain his only triumph in the last nine years. That fact has left many about writing every chance that the Irishman finds more success as a hunter, especially after a broken Teen Comeback plans had canceled in 2024.
'The Notorious', however, recently led to talking about a return by responding positively to the planned UFC Witte Huis event of Donald Trump in 2026.
July 4 next year is a Saturday, with regard to President Trumps UFC Witte Huis event.
I will rule President of Ireland, slightly less than 1 year when I take the lawns of the White House out.
Epic proportions! Or as I like to call it, Tuesday at the office.
To vote…

Cris Cyborg gets a smile from the UFC -COMEBACK -Training from Conor McGregor
The former double champion followed his phone calls to head the celebration of next year on July 4 with an official step in the direction of a comeback, when McGregor returned to the UFC drug test pool.
And although his promotional work as co-owner of the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship and controversial political plans in Ireland seem to have remained his focus this year, the Irishman has returned to the online posting of training images.
The latter came on Saturday via McGregor's Instagram stories and quickly came to social media. Among those who laughed at what they saw, Cris Cyborg, a former UFC champion that is generally considered a contender for female goat status in MMA.
The Brazilian legend appeared in the remarks of a message that the McGregor training clip has shocked again, simply answers with a multitude of smiling emojis.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Fans who were not intensive about the UFC co -back plans from Conor McGregor after a new training clip
It was not long before fans also take a bill from McGregor's latest training images.
A significant part shared a sentiment similar to that of Cyborg, where some encouraged him to stay away from a return to the cage and others who predict another loss when he ignores those supplications.
“Bro looks so bad now, just stay retired.”
“He will never come back!”
“He gets the first round KO'd.”
“So bad and slow and just weird. Stay retired, because you will be eliminated in round 1. Look it, it is over.”
“Slowly in Chuck Liddell changes for retirement.”
Slowly in Chuck Liddell changes for retirement

However, others still see a few suitable matchups for the Irishman.
“(Michael) Chandler or (Nate) Diaz would be a good fight for him.”
“Him vs Donald Cerrone 2 would now be a good matchup, both jump back from the equipment in the test pool.”
“I still think it is possible that he could ko (ilia) topuria ko. Conor has destroyed short orthodox hunters all his life.”
