The uncertainty surrounding the return of Conor McGregor to the UFC is growing each day, as a date is yet to be announced. Nevertheless, ‘The Notorious’ never gives up on making unusually bold claims. In one of the latest tweets, the former double champion stated that he’d easily defeat anyone on the roster. However, the fans were quick to shut him down.
Conor McGregor last fought in the UFC over two years ago. He lost the fight against Dustin Poirier and injured his leg that night. Since then, he’s healed from the injury and is waiting to get back inside the Octagon. However, there is no official announcement yet, but the Irishman still believes that he can beat anyone even when he has suffered losses in his last few fights.

There is no doubt that Conor McGregor is an accomplished fighter. He has a solid record of 22 wins and 6 losses. However, some people are starting to believe that he is past his prime now. The former double champion is already 35 years old and may not have many years left at the top. Nevertheless, McGregor is not yet ready to hang up his gloves as he looks to come back stronger than before.
