Conor McGregor is facing at least another six months on the sidelines having not been drug tested for over a year.
The former two-weight UFC champion has not fought since he broke his leg in his second successive defeat by Dustin Poirier last summer. Per The Mirror, the Dubliner had hoped to fight this year but his return was pushed back to 2023 after he suffered a setback in his recovery.
McGregor had also taken time out to film his first movie after landing a part in the remake of Road House alongside Jake Gyllenhall and it was later revealed he has not been drug tested since the third quarter of last year. Fighters must be in the testing pool for six months in order to be eligible to fight and UFC president Dana White confirmed that will be the case with McGregor.
