The MMA world has been promised a Conor McGregor return in 2023, and he may have dropped a spoiler for where he’ll turn up next.
McGregor, a former UFC lightweight and featherweight champion, said Wednesday he’s been offered a coaching spot on an upcoming season of “The Ultimate Fighter.” Not long after, UFC president Dana White shared McGregor’s post – lending a lot of credence to his claim.
The UFC’s long-running reality competition series returned in 2022 for its first season on ESPN+. The 31st season hasn’t been officially announced by the promotion, but taping for the season is expected to begin soon with a likely weekly broadcast later this spring.
