Follow Us
Conor McGregor makes his long-awaited UFC return in UFC 246 against Donald Cerrone. It’s been a while since McGregor has been the center of attraction for his in-ring performances. During the long lay off from the sport after the loss to Khabib Nurmagomedov, Conor’s life outside the octagon has been full of controversies and allegations.
In March of 2019, Conor McGregor was investigated for sexual assault in his home country of Ireland. In October, another incident of sexual assault allegations against Conor generated further disappointment among his fans.
There have been speculations that UFC was delaying the octagon return of Conor because of those sexual allegations. Conor McGregor has not been very vocal about this entire situation up until now.
