UFC president Dana White has dismissed the chances of Conor McGregor facing Floyd Mayweather next time out, insisting that the Irishman’s return will come in the Octagon – not a boxing ring.
McGregor last fought in July, suffering a broken leg in his second defeat by Dustin Poirier in six months. The former dual-weight champion is finally practising kicks again but may not compete until early 2022.
