Veteran UFC color-commentator, Joe Rogan has cast doubt on Conor McGregor’s ability to follow through on a UFC return promise, particularly after the Dublin striker admitted to cocaine use during his recent civil case in the High Court last month.
McGregor, a former undisputed lightweight and featherweight champion under the banner of the promotion, has yet to feature in the Octagon since 2021, where he suffered a brutal first round fracture of his left tibia and fibula, resulting in a doctor’s stoppage TKO loss to bitter-rival, Dustin Poirier.
And booked to return at UFC 303 in June, Conor McGregor was slated to headline the International Fight Week event against Michael Chandler at the welterweight limit, until a fractured toe ruled the 36-year-old striker from his hiatus-snapping return.
