Conor McGregor said Wednesday that an announcement regarding his UFC return bout is set to drop in the near future.
According to ESPN's Marc Raimondi, McGregor revealed the news during a press conference in Ukraine as part of a promotional tour through Eastern Europe: "We're very close to announcing it, not just yet. But surely over the course of this trip we should have an announcement. That's what we're aiming for."
The 31-year-old McGregor retired from UFC in March, but it was long assumed that he was simply taking a break and planned to return at some point.
