Conor McGregor has teased that his UFC return will take place at 170lbs in his latest social media post.
'The Notorious' hasn't fought since his breaking his leg in defeat to Dustin Poirier last July but has been returning to training step-by-step ahead of a potential comeback. Although hopes of a 2022 comeback never came to fruition, a 2023 return seems the most likely outcome.
During his recovery, McGregor revealed that he has been walking around at 190lb which has seen him later confirm that he intends to return at 170lb. This is a far cry from the early days of McGregor's career, when he primarily fought at 145 and 155 pounds.
