The Notorious Believes UFC Will Return to Ireland
Conor McGregor has expressed his confidence that a UFC event will soon take place in Ireland again. The Irish fighter shared his reaction on Twitter after learning about the profits made from gate receipts at the recent UFC Paris event, where two Irish fighters competed. McGregor predicts the return of MMA's premier promotion to Dublin, marking the first time since 2015.
Unbeaten Ian Garry Could Take Center Stage
If a UFC event were to happen in Dublin, unbeaten fighter Ian Garry would be an obvious choice to headline the card. The 25-year-old, who recently moved up to number 11 in the welterweight rankings, has teased the possibility of headlining a show in 2024. With a professional record of 13-0 and impressive performances, Garry's rise in the sport makes him an ideal candidate.
Positive Soundings from Irish MMA Star
Ian Garry has been vocal about his hopes for a UFC event in Dublin. Last week, he posted a photo in front of a Dublin docklands venue, hinting at the idea of headlining a future show. Garry, who trained with McGregor in their shared hometown, has expressed his admiration for the former champion and credits him for inspiring his career in MMA.
McGregor's Return Still Anticipated
While discussions about a UFC event in Ireland continue, Conor McGregor is focusing on his own comeback. The Irish fighter has reiterated his intention to return to the octagon before the year ends, most notably in a tweet where he confirmed a fight with Michael Chandler in Las Vegas on December 11. Fans have been eagerly awaiting McGregor's return, with rumors circulating since February.
