Conor McGregor is currently in the US celebrating St. Patrick’s day, and during a parade in Chicago, the former two-division champion briefly spoke about his next UFC bout.
“Yes, we’re currently in negotiations, we’re aiming for July, we’ll see what happens,” McGregor told ABC 7 in Chicago (HT: MMA Mania). “I am staying ready. This morning I was doing incline sprints on the treadmill on my program, the McGregorFast program, today in a hotel room. So we’re staying on it, getting work in as we go.”
July is reportedly the same targeted date for the proposed bout against Donald Cerrone.
