Conor McGregor could come up against UFC rival Tony Ferguson if he chooses to accept an offer to coach on The Ultimate Fighter.
McGregor is expected to return to the UFC this year having not fought since breaking his leg in defeat by Dustin Poirier in July 2021. The Irishman has been linked with a whole host of potential opponents for his return outing including Michael Chandler, Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal.
A fight has yet to materialise but McGregor is currently in negotiations for his return according to his coach John Kavanagh. And in his biggest hint yet, the 34-year-old claimed he had been offered the opportunity to coach a team for the second time in the UFC's show The Ultimate Fighter.
