The UFC is gearing up for Season 31 of “The Ultimate Fighter” reality series, and it appears the promotion wants the biggest star in the sport back in the fold as a coach.
Former two-division UFC champion Conor McGregor revealed this past week that he’s been contacted about a coaching stint on “TUF 31.” The Irishman already played the role on Season 22, but McGregor indicated he’s interested in coming back.
Shortly thereafter, former interim UFC lightweight champ Tony Ferguson shared that he’d also been been contacted to serve as a coach, and wanted McGregor to be the man leading the charge on the other team.
