Conor McGregor Says He Finally Got The Call From The UFC, Teases Summertime Return

I've had one hell of a night.

I just got back from the ROAD HOUSE premiere in New York City, where I was fortunate enough to speak with Conor McGregor (and Jake Gyllenhaal) on the red carpet - and the Champ Champ came thru with some great news! He says he finally got the call from the UFC, and it's all systems go for this Summer. Oh, and yes - he's still interesting in the bout happening at Middleweight.

Could this mean Conor McGregor has gotten the date he wanted, and he'll be returning on June 29th at International Fight Week?

I sure hope so, but we'll have to wait and see; McGregor's manager Audie Attar told me to be on the lookout for news/an announcement very soon.

I'll have the rest of my video from the red carpet as well as a full ROAD HOUSE review (SPOILER: it's awesome) for you guys tomorrow. I'm pretty stoked about how the whole night went, though - from the court house to the Road House.
