UFC WE WANT DECEMBER: Following UFC president Dana White's announcement that Conor McGregor will not be returning to the Octagon this year, the former two-division champion expressed his displeasure on social media and offered a possible return date.

McGregor hasn't competed since breaking his leg in a fight against Dustin Poirier in July 2021. Although he's been lined up for a matchup with Michael Chandler since early 2023, their fight, originally scheduled for June 29 at UFC 303, was cancelled after McGregor withdrew due to a toe injury.

"We talked. We talked. We didn't meet up but we talked, and yeah, (McGregor) wants to fight. So we'll figure it out. (But) not this year. He won't fight this year," White told reporters on Tuesday.
