Islam Makhachev Says Conor McGregor’s UFC Comeback is a ‘Fantasy’

UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev has called Conor McGregor’s potential return a fantasy.

As we know, Conor McGregor has been out of action for over three years now. For the most part, that’s been due to a nasty leg injury he suffered in his trilogy fight against Dustin Poirier. However, he was most recently scheduled to return against Michael Chandler.

Unfortunately, an injured toe ruled him out of that contest. At this point, nobody really knows what’s next for the Irishman – and he certainly appears to be more focused on ventures outside of the cage.
