Fans fear Conor McGregor will ‘never fight in UFC again’ as ‘sloppy’ training video emerges
CONOR McGREGOR is back training for a UFC return – but fans are fearing it may never come.
The Irishman was set to fight for the first time since 2021 against Michael Chandler on June 29.
But McGregor suffered a toe injury which forced him to pull out of the fight – for the first time in his UFC career.
The former two-weight champion has since vented his frustration at not yet getting a rescheduled fight date.
Although he remains training and uploaded a series of clips hitting the pads – but fans are less than convinced.
One said: “Conor will never fight in the UFC again. YouTuber boxing at best.”
Another added: “Slow and sloppy.”
One commented: “Just say it man, you aren’t fighting ever again.”
But another argued: “Looking good.”
Chandler, 38, has now signed to rematch Charles Oliveira, 34, on November 16 in New York.

It leaves McGregor’s next fight in doubt but he has since shifted his focus to welterweight champion Belal Muhammad, 36.
He said on a Duelbits livestream: “He’s woeful. I want to fight him.
“Okay, Chandler’s matched, let’s schedule Belal-McGregor UFC welterweight world title on the line.
“I’ve multiple knockouts at 170lb, I’m a force to be reckoned with at 170lb. I do damage at welterweight, check the stats.
I’ve done them at 100 per cent accuracy, this man doesn’t even have a knockdown in UFC history.
“Not one knockdown, it’s embarrassing, to be honest. I was kind of slow rolling the person.
“They’re all bums in the thing. You don’t be interested, come to me, but for the strap? Yes, next, yes please. Stall it Dana and the lads.”
