Overview
- Max Holloway, reflecting after his UFC 326 loss, publicly invited Conor McGregor to run it back at any weight and said “sign me up.”
- Dana White’s London presser remark that “the Conor/Garry fight won’t be in Ireland” spurred speculation about Ian Machado Garry, though no matchup is official.
- Journalist Ariel Helwani reported a July 11 International Fight Week return is increasingly likely for McGregor, contingent on finalizing terms.
- McGregor’s manager Audie Attar recently met UFC brass, but there is still no signed bout agreement and the opponent remains undecided.
- With Michael Chandler booked vs. Mauricio Ruffy on June 14 and Carlos Prates set to face Jack Della Maddalena on May 2, several previously floated options have moved off the table.
