Conor McGregor confirms comeback fight in Las Vegas

Conor McGregor has announced he is returning to the UFC in January 2020.

The MMA star told media at a press conference in Moscow that he has booked his comeback fight in Las Vegas for January 18th.

The father-of-two last fought in October 2018 when he faced Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 229 in Las Vegas.

“I would like to announce the return of the notorious Conor McGregor will take place on January 18 in the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada,” Conor revealed.

“That is my comeback fight. It’s 12 weeks from today. I’m in prime physical condition. I have agreed the date with the [UFC]. As far as the opponent, I have the opponent’s name, but for me, the game I am in and from experience, if I was to give you people the name, which I would love to do, the UFC would flip it. Because they’re a crafty company.

“So for me, here’s this one. Ask the UFC who the opponent is, because I do not give a fuck. January 18, the return of the notorious Conor McGregor at the T-Mobile arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. That will be the beginning of my season.

“I will then look to compete against the winner of Nate Diaz – Jorge Masvidal for the bad motherfucker title. Obviously I have history with Nate Diaz, we are set to make the trilogy bout, so we will see how that goes,” The Mac Life reports.

“Then I will seek [a] Moscow bout and it will be against the winner of Tony Ferguson – Khabib Nurmagomedov … that is the bout we want. We want this bout in Moscow.”

The Dublin star said he will be starting camp this week and that he “won’t be seen” again until the fight in Vegas.

“Fight is 12 weeks this Saturday. I go into camp from this tour and you will not see me until I go to fight.

“My family motivates and inspires me. I want to show them what hard work can do.”

The Proper No. Twelve founder added that a rematch with Khabib is needed for fans.

“The people of the world deserve this bout to take place. It is an inevitible rematch. It is a rematch that I will come in sharp, fresh, I will have no injuries, I will have no alcohol, I will have no outside influences, I will be fully focused — exactly what the people deserve. Exactly what the fans deserve, and we will settle it once for all.”

“Like I said, January 18. The return of a fully focused notorious Conor McGregor in Las Vegas, Nevada. Ask the UFC who the opponent is, because I do not give a f***. I am going to go through the entire roster like a chainsaw through butter. Make no mistake about that.”
