Joe Rogan, Michael Bisping break down Conor McGregor’s return – and the ‘kind of crazy’ possibility of a title fight

Former two-division UFC champion Conor McGregor is expected to return this summer, and the armchair matchmaking has been rampant.

McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC) has been on the shelf since a second straight TKO loss to Dustin Poirier. At UFC 264 in July 2021, McGregor was shut down after one round with a broken leg. Poirier also stopped McGregor with punches at UFC 257 in January 2021.
