Conor McGregor is once again teasing a comeback. Nearly one year after cancelling his fight against Michael Chandler, McGregor took to social media to say that he will be watching this weekend’s UFC Miami fight closely between Chandler and Paddy Pimblett.

Pimblett has already come out to say that he would down to fight McGregor if he beats Chandler.

“Sounds very tasty. A lot of people have said this to me already, ‘Beat Chandler, take the McGregor fight.’ Obviously, it’s the biggest fight in the sport, the biggest fight we’ve ever seen.”
Chandler insists that he will call out McGregor if he wins his fight v Pimblett.
“I’m going to do my job on April 12th and I’ll call out Conor again. I get made fun of no matter what, I want to see him be a man of his word. If he comes back this year, I’m fighting him.”
While McGregor teases a comeback, some fans aren’t buying into it.
i feel like this tweet would’ve banged 2-3 years ago and generated so much hype, nobody is buying it now, it’s done https://t.co/dZSwfBUKvc
