Conor McGregor has slid down another place in the UFC lightweight rankings just days after Dana White confirmed his comeback would be delayed.
The Irishman has been out of action since last July when he broke his leg in a second consecutive defeat by bitter rival Dustin Poirier. McGregor has been following a strict rehabilitation programme which has seen him slowly build up his training in an attempt to make a comeback next year and revive his UFC career.
On Saturday, UFC president White confirmed McGregor's UFC comeback would now be delayed for at least another six months, with athletes required to be enrolled in the USADA testing pool before competing. And it now appears the Irishman's ranking has paid the price, with McGregor sliding one place to No.13 in the official rankings behind Dan Hooker.
