The former UFC dual champion recently admitted that his focus is currently on politics, where he plans on running for Irish presidency.

If Conor McGregor never fights again, Daniel Cormier thinks his lasting UFC memory is an unfortunate one. It’s been almost four years since McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC) last fought when he broke his leg in a TKO loss to Dustin Poirier in July 2021. McGregor has planned his return on numerous occasions and was
Daniel Cormier understands Eric Nicksick’s frustration towards Sean Strickland at UFC 312, but disagrees with one thing.
