- UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor took to social media recently to confirm his fighting future. "Notorious" has not fought for the UFC since defeating Eddie Alvarez in 2016 for the title, which made him a two-division champion at the time as he was also the featherweight titleholder.
Officials stripped McGregor of the featherweight belt following that win, and as we near UFC 223 and a bout between Tony Ferguson and Khabib Nurmagomedov, he is expected to see the same happen to his lightweight belt.
"I am fighting again. Period," McGregor wrote. "I am the best at this. Please respect the insane amount of work outside the fight game that I have put in. On top of the fighting, I am here. It is on them to come and get me. Because I am here."
McGregor also stated that he was willing to fight at UFC 222, which takes next weekend, vs. Frankie Edgar after an injury to featherweight champion Max Holloway.
"I was told there wasn't enough time to generate the money that the UFC would need," McGregor said. "I was excited about bouncing in last minute and taking out the final featherweight."
