Conor McGregor doesn't stop. The Irishman, who hasn't fought since July 2021, appeared again focused on a sparring session, this time with a giant of the PFL. The former UFC featherweight (up to 65,7 kg) and lightweight (up to 70,3 kg) champion, the 37-year-old veteran doesn't hide his interest in participating in the highly anticipated event at the White House and, to that end, is showing commitment in every moment of training.
In a video posted on social media, McGregor is seen sparring with fellow Irishman Eoin Sheridan, who is 1,96m tall. Undefeated in his career, the PFL welterweight (up to 77 kg) fighter has four fights in his professional record. In the recording, it is possible to see 'The Notorious' throwing some punches and a high kick at Sheridan.

Conor McGregor's current form
Conor McGregor 's last fight was against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 in July 2021. In that fight, the Irishman lost via technical knockout in the first round. Since then, 'The Notorious' has struggled with injuries for about two years, keeping the former champion out of the octagon.
With UFC Casa Branca scheduled for June of this year, McGregor has begun expressing his interest in participating in the card. It's worth remembering that, despite his desire, Dana White, president of the UFC, has not yet confirmed the Irishman for the highly anticipated event. However, the athlete maintains his motivational attitude amidst the possibility of joining the show.
While his return is not confirmed, the 37-year-old veteran continues to dedicate himself to training, whether with significantly taller sparring partners or in areas of his game that are not so closely linked to his fighting style.
