David Feldman has revealed that Conor McGregor is ‘more focused’ and ‘better’ than he’s ever been amid UFC comeback speculation.
McGregor has his sights set on returning at UFC White House, and his business partner Feldman has revealed the Irishman is totally locked in for his comeback.
Conor McGregor ‘Better’ and ‘More Focused’ Than Ever
It’s no secret that Conor McGregor is deadly serious about making his return to the octagon for the first time in almost five years.
The Irishman has shared new training footage amid speculation that he will return later this year, and seems totally locked in for his UFC comeback.
That’s something that his business partner and friend David Feldman can testify to, having worked closely with the former two-weight simultaneous UFC champion for years.
Feldman has revealed to MMA journalist Ariel Helwani that ‘Notorious’ is totally locked in and focused on getting back into fighting shape and making his hotly-anticipated return later this year once and for all.

“I’ve never seen a Conor McGregor like this, more focused than I ever thought he could get,” Feldman revealed.
“Better than he was when he was in his prime… He’s training his ass off each and every day. He’s eating right, he’s going to church, he’s doing everything he’s supposed to do.
“This is not the Conor McGregor that we’ve seen in the past couple of years.”
Provided McGregor’s new UFC contract negotiations go positively this month, an official announcement on his highly-anticipated return shouldn’t be too far away.
MMA fans can begin to get excited that McGregor is actually back and ready to fight in just a few months time.

Conor McGregor Eyes UFC White House Return
The news surrounding Conor McGregor’s UFC return is all positive right now, with the Irishman expected to make his comeback around the summer time at a major UFC event.
Ever since his comeback was rumoured, McGregor has made it abundantly clear that it’s his full intention to fight and possibly headline UFC White House on June 14.
Talk of a fight with Michael Chandler, Jorge Masvidal and even Nate Diaz have surfaced regarding UFC White House, but have all been totally shut down by UFC President Dana White.
That being said, White hasn’t shut down the possibility of McGregor returning. In fact, the UFC kingpin has actually said it’s a real possibility that the former dual-weight simultaneous champion will make his comeback at UFC White House this summer.

The question of who McGregor fights is still ongoing, with plenty of options for the 37-year-old. One of those options is a fight with lightweight contender Mauricio Ruffy, who has revealed he is in contention for McGregor’s comeback fight.
Whether it be Ruffy, Justin Gaethje, Chandler, Masvidal, Diaz or even Dustin Poirier, the opponent really doesn’t matter. What matters is that McGregor is back and in the right state of mind mentally, and is prepared for battle physically too.
MMA fans are excited at the prospect of seeing the biggest name in the sport return once and for all, witnessing him fight for the first time in almost five years.
