Conor McGregor unveils three-fight plan as UFC legend teases stunning boxing match against legend in Saudi Arabia

He has been slated to return this year against Michael Chandler but McGregor himself has grown frustrated as talks drag on.

The Irishman even took to social media to brazenly announce he was fighting Chandler on June 29 at middleweight.

UFC president Dana White was quick to shut down the claim and said the fight is more likely for the winter.

McGregor hosted a Q&A on Instagram in the build up to the release of his movie debut, starring alongside Jake Gyllenhaal in a Roadhouse reeboot.

And he told his X followers that he still wants the fight date with Chandler, 37, before a trilogy bout with Nate Diaz, 38.

McGregor, 35, posted: “I wish for this on Mexican Independence Day in the sphere. Chandler June. Diaz September. I have let this be known.”

On his next fight, he said: “Still holding hope for June 29.

“Lack of action on it, however, is now causing lack of enthusiasm. I need a decision soon.

“I am the most tested athlete under this new regime. Yet no date to fight.

“The game is a bit lacklustre also at present, which isn’t helping. I hope these next few cards pop and I get a date.

“Eliminate distractions and begin real work towards it.”

McGregor spent time in Saudi Arabia last year when ex-UFC champion Francis Ngannou, 37, faced boxing star Tyson Fury, 35.

And talk of a blockbuster bout against Manny Pacquiao, 45, was reignited following their negotiations over the past few years.

McGregor lost his one and only boxing bout against Floyd Mayweather in 2017 but wants a ring return against PacMan.

He revealed: “It’s still there. Could be December. The Saudi’s are game changers in the market 100 per cent.”
