UFC CEO Dana White‘s announcement of UFC 295 and 296 ruled out the return of Conor McGregor in the year 2023. There were speculations that Mcgregor could step back into the octagon in December this year. However, after the announcement, the Irishman’s fight will take place in 2024. Just days after his ruled-out 2023 return, McGregor took on a punching machine to break the high score.

In a video on Twitter, Conor held a drink in his hand before approaching the machine. Later, McGregor threw a wrecking punch on the pad. After the punch, the calculated score goes up to a majestic 860. His dangerous left-hand holds such incredible strength that many of his opponents hit the canvas after the contact. And, today, the punching machine experienced a hint of his explosive power.

In his upcoming fight, McGregor is set for a showdown against TUF rival coach Michael Chandler. On various occasions, McGregor expressed his plans to compete in the year 2023. However, the fight got delayed due to his issues with the USADA testing pool. The announcement of the year-end cards confirmed McGregor’s return in 2024.

Early 2024, in January or February, looks like the most possible duration of the McGregor-Chandler fight. The UFC could also hold back McGregor until the historic UFC 300 card. The Irishman will step into the octagon after almost two years. His last fight was back in 2021 against Dustin Poirier, which ended in a brutal leg injury for McGregor.
