Dana White confirms Conor McGregor injury return timetable

UFC President Dana White has confirmed that Conor McGregor is not expected to fight again until 2027 following a knee injury suffered at UFC 329, where McGregor lasted just 69 seconds before the bout was stopped against Max Holloway. It was McGregor's first fight since July 2026, when he broke his leg in a loss to Dustin Poirier. Both White and McGregor have indicated a summer 2027 return is the current target.
