Conor McGregor has 48 hours to re-enter USADA testing pool before being ineligible to compete in 2023

The window for Conor McGregor to return in 2023 is closing rapidly.

‘The Irishman’ has insisted time and time again that he would be strapping on his four-ounce gloves for a scrap with ‘Iron’ Michael Chandler before the year comes to a close. That is now looking highly unlikely as, per a report from Verdict MMA, McGregor only has 48 hours before he would become ineligible to compete this year.

“Conor McGregor has 48 hours left to enter the USADA testing pool if he’s going to fight at UFC 296 which is the final PPV of the year, @VerdictMMA tweeted.
