As soon as Conor McGregor witnessed her victory, the former UFC champ took to Instagram to share multiple stories, celebrating Amy Scully’s success. He posted a video of Scully declaring she would emerge victorious in her rematch against Glaz and captioned it, “Amy Scully just became world champion in MMA, wow.”

Additionally, he shared another story featuring Scully’s ‘1% Better Every Day’ video, captioned with, “For those who follow any, you will have seen her consistent dedication to getting 1% better every day. It has been an incredibly motivating journey to follow! Well done, Amy—you did it! MMA world champion Amy Scully! Yes!” In addition to that, he added a few more stories of the new champion and captioned them as, “1% better and now world champion.” And “Amy Scully! Double champ”

His compatriots are winning their battle across the world and it’s a dream come true for himself as well as SBG Ireland Gym considering the fact that she predominantly trains there. However, what about him? Is he ever coming back to the Octagon again? Well, the UFC CEO anticipates that it might be happening sooner than expected.

Dana White gives the timeline of Conor McGregor’s return

The first and former dual weight champion of the world, Conor McGregor has not yet competed under the promotion since his last defeat against Dustin Poirier back in 2021. Well, his return was slated to take place during June this year but even that fell through as he sustained another injury just before the highly anticipated fight and Michael Chandler refused to wait longer for him Chandler will now be re-matching Charles Oliveira at UFC 309. So, is this the end of the story of the UFC legend?

Maybe not! While having a conversation with the New York Post, the UFC CEO emphasized that Conor McGregor will return but the timeline will start in early 2025, “Let me tell you this, I was the one this year saying I don’t think he’s going to fight this year, amid all the talk and everything else, Conor McGregor will fight next year, early 2025,” said Dana White.

Who might be his opponent? Well, that question is a bit debatable considering the fact that ‘Iron Mike’ may or may not be fit for a return for the Jan-Feb card. So let us assume that it’s not Chandler, then who would be a better return fight for the former champ? Well, Nate Diaz can be a good fight for him and both of the fighters have even called each other out on multiple occasions. In addition to that, a final Dance against Dustin Poirier would be a blockbuster for the promotion, and if not that then McGregor could fight Ilia Topuria for a super match if the featherweight champ agrees on the fight.

Regardless, the UFC has a lot of options on how they could make his return a sensational one. What’s your take on his career so far? Do you believe Conor McGregor should return? State your thoughts in the comments below.
