Chael Sonnen Dismisses ‘Foolish’ Hope of Conor McGregor UFC Comeback

If you’re still holding out hope to see Conor McGregor back inside the Octagon, Chael Sonnen has some bad news for you.

It’s been more than three years since we last saw the Irish megastar strap on a pair of four-ounce gloves for his disastrous trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier at UFC 264. In the time since, rumors regarding his quote-unquote “greatest comeback in combat sports history” have continuously dominated headlines.

Still, it feels as though we are no closer to seeing the former two-division titleholder back inside the Octagon than we were the day after his devastating leg break in July 2021.
