McGregor says he has “lost motivation” amid impasse over UFC’s future

While Conor McGregor’s acting career began very actively with his presence in the remake of the film “Matador de Aluguel” (“Roadhouse”), in MMA it continues without any definition as to when he will return to fight in the UFC, and this has made the frustration of the “Notorious” visible.

Such frustration about the future was demonstrated once again when speaking to the Irish-owned website “The Mac Life” during the premiere of the film in which she stars alongside Jake Gyllenahaal. The UFC fighter said he has been training intensely for the past few months, waiting for a date to fight, but that all the uncertainty has hindered those plans.

– I have held retreats in Cannes, France, and also in Dubai. Many world champions have trained with me because I was hoping to fight in December, then January and all this keeps getting postponed. Then I lose interest and stop training for a while. Not completely because I’m always working out, but I take a break and start drinking. So I have to go back, get people together, prove myself and be ready. A date will come and when it comes I will be ready,” McGregor said.

Michael Chandler is the “reserved” opponent for the Irishman’s return to the UFC, which has been expected since the two worked together on “The Ultimate Fighter”. In the new year, the ‘Notorious’ also said that he would fight in June (on today’s date of UFC 303), but Dana White quickly denied the main star of him.

And the Irishman has been excluded from what is the most anticipated event of the year, UFC 300, on the 13th. It now remains to know what prevented the star’s return to the octagon and when this will fully happen.
