Conor McGregor has not entered the octagon in nearly four years. His last appearance came at UFC 264 in July 2021 when he suffered a broken leg in his loss to Dustin Poirier. Despite his inactivity, the former double champ has remained a constant presence in the combat sports world, particularly after he became a part-owner of Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship in 2024.
