The Dubliner has been patiently waiting to make a comeback after nearly three years. However, he is still waiting for his return date, which seems to be right around the corner. As he prepares to return, the former UFC heavyweight shared McGregor’s master plan in his recent interview. Let us find out what the 41-year-old had to say.

Brendan Schaub shares the future plans of Conor McGregor

At 35-years-old Conor McGregor is at the twilight of his career. Once a former two-division champion, McGregor is facing the biggest break of his career. After losing nearly three years of his career because of an injury, he is now ready to make a comeback to the Octagon. His probable opponent is likely to be Michael Chandler as the pair have already shown their willingness to fight each other. But who will McGregor face after him? Well, Brendan Schaub might just know the answer.

In his recent video on YouTube, ” So there’s more to that story we’re not getting, you know. But it’s going to be International Fight Week. Conor didn’t pull that out of his a… It’s going to be Michael Chandler. But I really think that Conor just wants to do that one fight and then bounce and make all the money fighting Manny Pacquiao, Jake Paul, Nate Diaz in boxing or MMA in their own promotion in Dublin or whatever. That’s what’s going on there. The UFC is trying to, you know, do what they do and keep them under wraps. So we’ll see what happens.”

When will the much-awaited fight between Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler finally take place? The fight has been building up for quite some time now but it is yet to be materialized. Both McGregor and Chandler recently came out and announced that they finally have a date for the fight. However, UFC CEO Dana White is yet to make any official announcement. Hence, the former UFC fighter feels that the fight is yet to be finalized. In a recent video on his YouTube channel he gave his own reasons. 

He said, “If they wanted to do their reveal would tell the boys not to say anything. That’s true but if they were planning their reveal Dana would not have denied it. Just so you understand. If Conor’s saying yes, Dana saying, it’s not done you have Chandler confirming that it is done but he can’t confirm a date. What are we to guess? Could I see that happening? Yes and no.” His recent claims have put the fans in a dilemma regarding McGregor’s return. Despite McGregor claiming that he has a date, will the fans have to wait again? Or is ‘The Notorious’ one just building up his comeback? Let us know in the comments below.
