McGregor confessed on the sidelines of the ‘Day of Reckoning’ that he is losing patience with UFC, as Dana White still won’t confirm what date his return will be on
Conor McGregor, doesn’t want to wait any longer to have a fight again, either in mixed martial arts or boxing.
The Irishman is looking for a giant purse like the one he got when he faced Floyd Mayweather and now he is looking for a showdown in our sport with eight-division champion, Filipino star Manny Pacquiao.
McGregor has been out of the cage since July 2021, when he suffered a loss when he broke his leg in the middle of a fight against Dustin Poirier.
While Pacquiao, 45, has not stepped back into a ring since August 2021, when he lost a 12-round decision to Cuba’s Yordenis Ugas.
Last Saturday McGregor revealed, “He owes me $8 million for a judgment. He signed for my representation company…and didn’t pay his fees.”
‘The Notorious’ revealed on the sidelines of ‘Day of Reckoning’ that he is losing patience with UFC, as Dana White is still not confirming on what date his return will be.
“Mac still has a lot to give and a lot to offer. So they’re already talking about a fight against Manny Pacquiao here in Saudi Arabia, since UFC won’t tell me anything,” he mentioned for TalkSport.
The Irishman insisted that the MMA company is still not putting him on a card: “I want them to give me something. I’m supposed to be back in April when they told me it would be in December.”
Concluding that “I’ve faced several world figures and I know I sell more than all of them combined. No one in history has been treated the way I’ve been treated right now.”
“So boxing could open doors for me again for the future, as I’m still waiting (for Dana White) and my patience is wearing thin.”
