Inactive since 2021, Conor McGregor has once again caused anxiety among his fans by posting a video in which he appears training in grappling, with the right to simulate violent elbow strikes on his training partner (watch below). Despite the post, the Irishman avoided suggesting dates or provoking any opponent currently present in the UFC.
In response, netizens reacted positively and expressed love and longing for the former two-time champion. After announcing that he plans to run for president of Ireland, the athlete's future became unknown as to how he will divide his time between focusing on politics and an eventual return to the UFC.
