The Conor McGregor next fight is a hot topic of conversation, with mans fans believing the Irishman might never fight again. Read on to find out potential options for McGregor’s next fight, if he does choose to return to the UFC in 2025 and beyond.
Conor McGregor Next Fight: When Will The Two-Division UFC King Return To Action?
Conor McGregor is widely regarded as the man who transcended the sport of MMA. The Irishman is by far and away the most famous UFC fighter of all time, not to mention the richest and the most recognisable too.
‘Notorious’ also tops the list of the most followed UFC fighters and is also the single highest-paid fighter in UFC history by quite some margin. It could be argued that McGregor is actually bigger than the UFC itself.
Conor McGregor’s record is an impressive 22-6, which consists of 19 knockout victories, one submission and two decision wins. The 36-year-old also made history as the first ever UFC double champion, holding the UFC Featherweight Title and UFC Lightweight Title simultaneously for a brief period.
UFC fans last saw Conor McGregor in action way back in July 2021, where he lost to champion Dustin Poirier in their trilogy bout. The fight was stopped due to the Irishman breaking his leg, and MMA fans haven’t seen their hero back in action ever since.
UFC President Dana White will be hoping to see ‘Notorious’ back inside the octagon in 2025. He is the biggest draw in the UFC, which in turn generates millions of dollars for the company. Whether or not he does return is another question. Also, who would Conor McGregor’s next fight actually be against.
Some potential options for McGregor’s next fight, if indeed he actually returns to MMA, could be a rematch with Max Holloway. The pair fought way back in 2013 with McGregor winning via decision, but many would back ‘Blessed’ to win that fight now. As would the best UK betting sites who will likely favour Holloway.
Time will tell what happens next for the Irishman, and when Conor McGregor’s next fight will actually take place.
Who Could Conor McGregor Fight If He Were To Return To The UFC In 2025?
Conor McGregor’s next fight is one that fans are unsure on. It is tricky to pinpoint one name who ‘Notorious’ shout fight, not to mention his outside of the cage problems right now having been charged with sexual assault in a civil court.
If McGregor sorts himself out outside of the octagon once and for all and is serious about a return, then he has plenty of options. Almost every fighter would want a piece of the Irishman. Partly because he generates more money than any other fighter, and also because many fans perceive McGregor to be well past his prime.
Several different fights make total sense for the 36-year-old, including the aforementioned rematch with Max Holloway. That is one option for McGregor, as is a trilogy fight with Nate Diaz. The only problem with that is Diaz would need to make a return to MMA and sign a new contract with the UFC.
Another option could be the Michael Chandler fight, or perhaps even Dan Hooker. Both names have been mentioned for McGregor on numerous occasions, so if he were to return in 2025, both of these fights could be a genuine possibility.
The best UFC betting sites in the UK would likely favour McGregor against Hooker and Chandler, but not Holloway or anyone else higher up the rankings. Time will tell what Conor McGregor;s next move is, and who indeed his next fight will be against, if at all.
