Conor McGregor has claimed that he is negotiating with President Donald Trump and his administration, not the UFC, for his octagon comeback next year. As one of the world's most prominent MMA stars, McGregor has been out of action since the summer of 2021 when he suffered a broken leg against Dustin Poirier (http://bloodyelbow.com/tag/dustin-poirier). Despite this, he remains an integral part of UFC's roster, managed by Audie Attar of Paradigm and the UFC itself. However, with his return scheduled for the promotion’s event at the UFC White House card next year, McGregor asserts that talks are happening at a higher level than usual. This would mean going over Dana White and Hunter Campbell, two of the most influential figures in UFC history, for the biggest promotional event in its history. * Who is Conor McGregor?
