Conor McGregor is subject to several hurdles in his recent journey back to the octagon. However, remarkably, this downturn has not diminished his unyielding ambition. ‘The Notorious’ was expected to make a triumphant return this year, facing off against Michael Chandler. Unfortunately, McGregor’s failure to enter the USADA testing pool has jeopardized his comeback, ruling him out of the year’s final pay-per-view event at UFC 296. This disappointing turn of events has left fans disheartened.

Adding to his challenges, the Irishman is also enduring a losing streak as a coach on TUF 31 [The Ultimate Fighter Season 31]. Despite these setbacks, the former double champ remains resolute, setting his sights on nothing less than the best. In a recent bold statement, McGregor took aim at the coveted BMF [Baddest Motherf**ker] title, which is now up for grabs in a highly anticipated rematch between Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje, headlining at UFC 291.

Conor McGregor takes a dig at Poirier vs. Gaethje over the BMF title

While Conor McGregor’s return to the octagon lacks any official updates at present, the UFC superstar took matters into his own hands by expressing his position on the BMF title. While his former rival Dustin Poirier is set for a rematch with Justin Gaethje for the coveted title, the Irishman firmly believes that the belt belongs to him.

On Twitter, the 34-year-old Irish fighter made a bold statement, declaring, “And don’t think for one second that the bmf belt isn’t being lined up specifically for the Mac Dad. Little one division twerps.”

While the road to redemption may be challenging, McGregor’s resilience and unwavering ambition remind us that setbacks are only temporary.
