Conor McGregor Training Footage Emerges After Wild White House Fight Tip

Conor McGregor has shared a new clip of his training camp amid claims he could return to the UFC in a monstrous showdown at the White House.

McGregor continues to be linked with a UFC return, having not fought inside the famed Octagon since his defeat to Dustin Poirier in July 2021.

He was due to face Michael Chandler in the summer of 2024 until a toe injury forced him to withdraw from the UFC 303 main-event bout.

But McGregor is hoping to return to competition in 2026 as he eyes a spot on the UFC White House card, which is slated for June.

Several names have emerged as a potential opponent, including Chandler, who was scheduled to face him two years ago, and Jorge Masvidal, who retired from MMA in 2023.

Not to mention Paddy Pimblett, who came up short in his bid to become the interim UFC lightweight champion at last weekend's UFC 324.

He lost on points to Justin Gaethje, who secured a unanimous decision victory in a Fight of the Year candidate.

Ariel Helwani has suggested 'The Baddy' could welcome McGregor back to the famed Octagon in what would be a blockbuster showdown given the Liverpool star's new found fame.

Pimblett has emerged as one of the biggest names in the UFC, with his reputation growing after his resilient performance at UFC 324.

Well, ahead of a potential fight, the 'Notorious' has taken to social media to share his latest preparations in camp.

He uploaded a video of his training from inside Dublin's Straight Blast Gym, having reunited with long-time coach John Kavanagh.

The clip shows McGregor sparring with a series of different sparring partners as he delivered a defiant message.

"I’m 100 percent - this is," he said. "We’re going in here 100 percent. I’m going into this fight 100 percent Conor McGregor. Not 92! 100 percent Conor McGregor."

What has Paddy Pimblett said about fighting Conor McGregor?

Pimblett vs. McGregor has become a realistic match-up given the fighters' star power and appeal to the mainstream.

The 31-year-old Englishman was asked about a potential clash against the Irishman ahead of UFC 324.

Speaking at the UFC 324 media day before his bout against Gaethje, he said: "It doesn't not make sense, but you would be an idiot to say no to fighting Conor McGregor, wouldn’t you? Let’s be honest. Everyone knows that; that’s the biggest money fight you can get in the sport."
