Conor McGregor believes the next chapter of his career will be his best yet.
The former two-division UFC champion is scheduled to return to the Octagon for the first time in five years when he faces Max Holloway in the main event of UFC 329 in Las Vegas next Saturday night.
McGregor has not competed since suffering a devastating leg injury in his trilogy bout against Dustin Poirier in 2021. After years on the sidelines, many questioned whether the 37-year-old would ever fight again. Now, as his long-awaited return approaches, McGregor says he is as motivated as ever and believes he still has plenty left to accomplish.
Speaking on the UFC 329 Countdown show, McGregor made it clear that his ambitions remain as high as they have ever been.
“I feel there's so much left for me to conquer in this game. So much more accolades. More belts, more knockouts, more records, more cash. I am taking everything of what I have built. I can't wait. The fight game in the combat sports world is McGregor's World. And I'm in my prime here now. So it is on me now to go and show that. And that's what I will do, so just get ready for the comeback.”
McGregor's return marks one of the most anticipated comebacks in UFC history, with the Irish superstar looking to prove he can once again compete at the highest level after his lengthy absence from competition.
