He’s expected to return in February/March 2023. Intriguingly, McGregor was recently linked to a potential boxing rematch with legendary former professional boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. View this post on Instagram Instagram Post Taking to his official YouTube channel, Michael Bisping addressed these rumors and opined that McGregor returning for a boxing rematch against Mayweather would be the ideal comeback fight for him. ‘The Count’ believes McGregor would earn a huge payday by fighting ‘Money’ again. Furthermore, Bisping suggested that given McGregor’s leg injury, he’ll find it easier to prepare for a boxing match than MMA. Bisping said: "For Conor McGregor, it's probably not a bad idea, because coming back and getting ready for a boxing fight is a lot less strenuous than getting ready for a Mixed Martial Arts contest. And of course, I'm talking about the man's leg." Watch Bisping’s assessment below: Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Edited by Virat Deswal × Feedback Thank You!
