The Conor comeback trail - Are Khabib, Masvidal & Mayweather next for McGregor's 'Multi-million Dollar Fight Club'?
Conor McGregor announced his comeback in stunning fashion against Donald Cerrone in just 40 first-round seconds at UFC 246. Will Khabib Nurmagomedov, Jorge Masvidal or Floyd Mayweather be next on 'The Notorious' comeback trial.
Prior to and following his TKO of veteran Cerrone, McGregor's first in the combat sports arena in over three years, the 31-year-old called out combat stars in the ring, in the octagon and even those in retirement for a fight in 2020.
Among those to be annointed for possible membership to his self-styled 'multi-million dollar fight club' are fan favorite Jorge Masvidal and 50-0 undefeated Floyd Mayweather.
Above all, a mega-money rematch with UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmnagomedov in Russia seems to be on the agenda for McGregor's 'real-life Rocky story'.
