Dustin Poirier is entering the UFC octagon for the last time in this weekend’s UFC 318. His final bout will be against Max Holloway, whose UFC debut was against Poirier in 2012. Poirier won that first meeting by submission, and he beat Holloway again in 2019 by decision. Unlike most UFC numbered events, the Holloway vs. Poirier 3 headliner will be for the ceremonial Bmf championship, held by Holloway, instead of a belt.

Conor McGregor is easily one of the most recognizable fighters the UFC has produced in the past two decades. However, since gaining fame with his professional martial arts career, McGregor has continued stirring controversy on and off the Octagon with his comments.

The UFC star made one such controversial comment recently on social media regarding Game of Thrones actor Liam Cunningham. However, Cunningham shared a fiery response that reminded McGregor of his worst nightmare and forced him to eat his words. Here’s how the Game of Thrones star made Conor McGregor delete his comment.

Logan Paul may be a phenomenal wrestler and one of WWE’s rising stars, but he is no match for Conor McGregor, one of the greatest fighters of all time. The two nearly faced off in real life, as McGregor was set to fight Paul earlier this year, though the bout never materialized.

However, they did come face to face at one point, and despite having his brother by his side, Paul chose not to provoke one of UFC’s most legendary fighters. Later, on his own podcast, Paul revealed that he and McGregor were on the verge of exchanging blows but ultimately decided to handle the situation with caution.

It’s been a long time since Conor McGregor entered the ring, and now it seems like he’s no longer willing to return either. After his leg injury in 2021, once McGregor took a break from UFC, he seemingly never returned for another fight. He certainly made his Hollywood appearance in the Road House remake, but his Mma career seems done for.

On a more recent note, with a run for the Irish presidency, Conor McGregor seemingly hinted that his career may be moving towards being finished. Speaking at a Bkfc media event, he claimed to be satisfied with what he has done and everything that he has achieved so far, but he noted that “something else” has drawn him.

Conor McGregor has been biding his time for a comeback to the UFC ever since he took a hiatus to recover from his injury. Since then, he has starred in a film and has been feuding with Logan and Jake Paul, challenging them to a match which might never happen. He has also been making some wild statements on his social media accounts.

McGregor recently received backlash for comparing his salary to the entire Dmitry Bivol and Artur Beterbiev boxing fight. The Notorious claimed that he had earned more money through purse and pay-per-view in his 2021 match against Dustin Poirier than the entire Bivol-Beterbiev fight card combined.

The Notorious revealed that the match was most likely not to happen as the UFC was not interested in the deal.

McGregor has been pushing for the boxing match against Logan Paul for a long time now. The rumored purse for each player was reportedly $250 million and was set to take place in Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium. While it was rumored to take place as early as April, McGregor has revealed that it might not happen anytime soon.

Even though he hasn’t stepped into the octagon for almost four years, McGregor remains the UFC’s most recognizable name. His star power is so massive that it often becomes a bargaining chip for the UFC in negotiations with other companies.

Now, the buzz is all about his next showdown, this time against Logan Paul. This unexpected matchup has fans on the edge of their seats, but what’s really making headlines is McGregor’s jaw-dropping fight purse.

The next big event in the world of influencer boxing looks likely to take place in India. That’s where creator, podcaster, and entrepreneur Logan Paul will fight against former UFC star Conor McGregor, according to a statement from McGregor himself.

McGregor broke the news of the Paul fight in a tweet. “The rumors of a bout with [Ilia Topuria] are false,” wrote the 36-year-old Irishman. “I am in preliminary agreements with the Ambani family to face Logan Paul in a boxing exhibition in India.”

The Ambanis rank among the world’s wealthiest families. Patriarch Mukesh Ambani currently ranks as the richest person in Asia and the 9th-richest person in the world, according to Forbes.

UFC Bmf champion Max Holloway is best known for his career as an Mma fighter. The Hawaiian fighter began his UFC career as the youngest in his roster and slowly began to rise through the ranks. Holloway has since become one of the most popular fighters in the promotion and is the current Bmf Champion.

Though he has dedicated himself to his UFC career, Holloway has made some appearances in other media. In 2018, the fighter made his Hollywood debut with the action film Den of Thieves. Though he had a small role in the film, he joined a few of his UFC mates in the Gerard Butler and 50 Cent starrer.

Max Holloway has had a brilliant career in the UFC ever since he made his debut in 2012. At just age 32, the fighter has accomplished a lot and is currently the Bmf Champion in the UFC.

One of the biggest questions UFC fans have when it comes to Conor McGregor is whether or not he will ever make a return to the octagon to compete in the sport that made him a household name. However, based on the most recent updates making the rounds, it looks like he is doing something else instead.

Conor McGregor Has Been Out Of The Octagon A Long Time

One of Conor McGregor’s last notable wins in the UFC was all the way back in January of 2020, when he defeated Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone by Tko. Following that victory, McGregor had two defeats in 2021 at the hands of Dustin Poirier.

Conor was going to fight against Michael Chandler in 2024 as part of UFC 303. However, that fight never came to fruition. McGregor has been dealing with injuries for the last few years, and the pandemic also took a shot at his momentum.

Conor McGregor was supposed to fight his Ultimate Fighter nemesis, Michael Chandler, this month at UFC 303. However, Dana White announced this week that the fight is off. White said Conor suffered an injury and couldn’t compete, so he added a couple of fights and rearranged the main event.

Now, McGregor has spoken up about the injury that caused the fight’s cancelation.

It has been nearly three years since former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion Conor McGregor has stepped into the octagon for a pay-per-view fight. In UFC 264, McGregor lost to Dustin Poirier after the ringside doctor stopped the fight and it was discovered that McGregor had sustained a broken tibia. Since then, the former champ served as the coach for “The Ultimate Fighter 31” facing off against opposing coach Michael Chandler, which has led to the pair facing off at UFC 303 on ESPN+ Pay-Per-View on Saturday, June 29. Anticipation is high for the event, and ESPN is adding to it by offer a limited-time, early-bird deal on the fight.

In a shocking move, the Conor McGregor vs Michael Chandler fight at UFC 303 has been canceled. This comes just two weeks before the fight was supposed to take place. Dana White gave an update on what would replace it and why McGregor pulled out.

Here is why Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler won’t fight and what will happen at UFC 303.

On Monday, a press conference in Dublin to promote the June 29 match at UFC 303 in Las Vegas between Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler was postponed. The unexpected postponement immediately sparked speculation over McGregor’s availability for the highly anticipated fight.

Photos and videos circulating on social media showed McGregor, 35, out dancing with his fiancée and friends, further fueling the rumors. Fans and media also noted that UFC CEO Dana White did not indicate that the press conference would be postponed when he spoke to reporters at Saturday’s UFC 302 event.

McGregor, a two-time UFC champion, is scheduled to fight Chandler as a welterweight in a five-round, non-title bout. The Irishman has not appeared in a match since he broke his leg and lost by Tko to Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 in 2021.

In a statement on social media, McGregor implied that the postponement was UFC’s decision and provided little explanation for the sudden change.

The lightweight championship will be on the line on Saturday, June 1 when UFC 302 emanates from Newark, New Jersey. Champion Islan Makhachev will defend his belt against No. 4 ranked contender Dustin Poirier in the main event.

Road House sequel featuring Conor McGregor's Knox would be a UFC-inspired rematch event between Dalton and Knox, creating hype and anticipation.

Iconic Events has reached a deal with UFC to continue presenting the Mma promotion’s pay-per-view events in theaters nationwide through the end of 2022.

The partnership between Iconic and UFC began in January 2021 before most movie theaters even reopened with a pay-per-view event headlined by Dustin Poirier and Conor McGregor. Iconic is aiming to appeal to Mma fans by giving them a way to see the biggest fights in an arena-esque environment with dozens of other fans and at a $25 price tag that is considerably cheaper than the $75-80 PPV prices on ESPN+.

“UFC is the ultimate theatrical sporting event – there’s simply nothing like experiencing these highly entertaining, competitive, and captivating fights on the big screen,” Iconic Events CEO Steve Bunnell said Tuesday. “UFC athletes are the best in the world and seeing them on giant movie theatre screens with the high-end sound cranked up is a thrilling way to watch them.

Conor McGregor had his fair share of doubters prior to his rise up the ranks of the Mme world, but since then it has been speculated that he could well make a leap to pro-wrestling, and there are plenty who would be happy to see him entering the WWE ring. Although McGregor has often sparred with some of WWE's biggest stars on his social media, the idea of facing off against some wrestling greats has never been completely ruled out. While speaking to Dan Patrick this week, one WWE legend who could see Conor McGregor fitting in perfectly into sports entertainment is John Cena.

"It's entertainment. You have to buy into that reality. If you don't believe you're piece of that world we're in or your opponent is a piece of that world, it doesn't work," John Cena said. "I don't watch much Mma or anything. To me, it's true fight sport,...
