The UFC landscape is buzzing with excitement as Conor McGregor‘s name emerges in the 2024 anti-doping database, fueling speculation about a potential return to the octagon.
A recent update follows the termination of the UFC‘s partnership with USADA on New Year’s Eve, revealing 61 registered athletes in the revamped anti-doping program.
According to Essentially Sports, two fighters, Conor McGregor and Taylor Lapilus, stand out for their involvement in multiple testing sessions, intensifying the intrigue surrounding McGregor’s potential comeback.
While McGregor had previously hinted at a return during International Fight Week, UFC President Dana White has dampened expectations, leaving fans in suspense about the timing of McGregor’s octagon return.
“Ahh, no. When Conor is ready to fight, you know we’ll announce it. That’s what we do,” White said last week.

Despite the lack of an official return date, Michael Chandler is confident in his belief that he could be McGregor’s next opponent.
The MMA community is abuzz with discussions about McGregor‘s imminent moves and potential matchups. As McGregor’s name resurfaces in the anti-doping database, fans eagerly await official announcements regarding his comeback and the opponents he may face.
With the charismatic Irish superstar’s presence in the anti-doping records, the stage is set for another captivating chapter in McGregor‘s storied UFC career.
