Chael Sonnen doubts Conor McGregor's return to the octagon

Chael Sonnen has expressed skepticism about Conor McGregor's potential return to mixed martial arts. Sonnen believes that with each passing day, it becomes increasingly unlikely that McGregor will ever step into the octagon again.

McGregor's last fight was a devastating loss to Dustin Poirier in July 2021, where he suffered a gruesome leg injury. Since then, he has been unable to secure a fight and has been involved in various other endeavors outside of MMA. Sonnen suggested that these other pursuits, combined with McGregor's lavish lifestyle, have made a return to fighting less likely.

Speaking on his show Good Guy/Bad Guy with Daniel Cormier, 'The American Gangster' said:

“I don’t know what to make of Conor. We’re looking foolish at this point by continuing to act as though he’s going to come back, the truth is, the night he went down broken in two against Dustin Poirier, it was unlikely he was going to return... When he got other opportunities. Selling the whiskey brand, and finding himself in movies with Jake Gyllenhaal, it was unlikely that Conor was going to return.”

Sonnen added:

“When he walked away from a press conference in his hometown. And didn’t show up to UFC 303, it was unlikely. Even baseball tells you three strikes, you’re out. At some point, we all have to accept this and move on.” [H/t: Bloody Elbow]
