Veteran former UFC welterweight title challenger, Rory MacDonald has admitted he would potentially entertain a return to combat sports to score a fight with incoming UFC 315 headliner, Jack Della Maddalena — revealing he is a massive fan of the Australian’s striking-first style.
MacDonald, a Hall of Fame inductee in the UFC, called time on his decorated combat sports career back in 2022, ending a lengthy and storied career in mixed martial arts.
And despite never landing Octagon spoils, MacDonald turned in one of the best fights of all time in a back-and-forth eventual fifth round knockout loss to Robbie Lawler in the pair’s title rematch at UFC 189 back in 2015.
