Former two-weight champion, Conor McGregor may have outlined his intentions to scoop a record-setting third title in the future in the form of a welterweight crown, however, has called for the inception of a new ‘Realest Motherf*cker’ championship – which he claims he’s already the inaugural holder of.
McGregor, a former undisputed lightweight gold holder and featherweight champion, has been sidelined for three years since he headlined UFC 264, most recently taking on former interim champion, Dustin Poirier.
Fracturing his left tibia and fibula in his rubber match trilogy with his Lafayette arch-rival, McGregor was slated to return at UFC 303 at the end of last month, with another injury setback cancelling that return.
Injuring a toe on his left foot in the weeks ahead of a scheduled welterweight main event fight with The Ultimate Fighter 31 rival, Michael Chandler, McGregor has been linked with a return potentially in December – with a UFC 310 card planned for the promotion’s final flagship event of the annum.
