Conor McGregor has made it very clear that he will be back in the Octagon in 2019.
The UFC champion has faced retirement rumours since his two-year break from the UFC, and there were even more whispers after his recent fight with Khabib Nurmagomedov did not go the way he wanted.
Despite currently being suspended by the Nevada Commission, Conor has now said he will return to the UFC next year.
Taking to Twitter, while promoting his whiskey brand Proper No. Twelve, the Dublin native told a fan his whiskey will land in the UK next year, the same year he will return to fight again.
2019 is when we launch in the U.K and Australia!

We are very excited!
