Dana White questions Conor McGregor’s claim that his next UFC date after Max Holloway clash is already set

Dana White definitely isn’t looking any further ahead than Conor McGregor’s scheduled comeback.

This coming July 11, Conor McGregor is finally set to make his comeback to the game when he takes on Max Holloway within the UFC 329 important event.

The Irishman hasn’t competed since 2021 when he disastrously broke his leg against Dustin Poirier, but he was scheduled to return in 2024 against Michael Chandler before withdrawing because of injury.

And since of his recent history of inactivity, Dana White is adamant that he isn’t looking past his return this coming July.

How high would Conor McGregor beating Max Holloway at UFC 329 rank amongst one of the best returns?

White dispels McGregor’s claim that his next fight date is already set

‘The Notorious’ former double champion finds himself as an enormous underdog going into his rematch against Holloway, who since McGregor’s last fight, has fought eight times with five being title fights.

Despite that, McGregor has claimed that Holloway hasn’t made any improvements since their last fight in 2013, calling ‘Blessed’ his ‘son’.

His UFC 329 clash will mark the penultimate fight of his current cope with the promotion, leaving him with only one fight left.

The 37-year-old recently revealed that he has already been given the date for the ultimate fight of his deal, stating that he can be returning in April.

That, though, has been disputed by Dana White who gave his thoughts on McGregor’s comments in the course of the UFC Vegas 119 post-fight press conference this past Saturday.

“What are the dates?” White asked a reporter who questioned the legitimacy of it.

“I don’t even know. I mean, listen, let’s get through this one first after which we’ll determine when the subsequent one is, you already know, to even be talking about his second fight without even having the primary fight.

“That is like after I’m on the web they usually’re like, ‘This fight sucks this weekend’, how the f— do you already know this fight sucks (when it hasn’t happened yet)? Saturday night at midnight text me and tell me the fight sucked.

“So who knows, let’s see how this fight plays out,” he continued.

If McGregor does get through the challenge that the previous BMF champion poses, he may very well be set for a possible title clash against either Islam Makhachev or Justin Gaethje.
