Conor McGregor and Cole Miller may get a chance to settle their beef when the UFC returns to Dublin. The lightweights, who have lobbed numerous insults and callouts at each other over the past half year, could be matched up at the upcoming event, which takes place July 19. Although UFC President Dana White said a headliner hasn’t been determined for the show, which is likely to stream on UFC Fight Pass, he’s pretty sure Ireland’s McGregor will be part of the lineup. “We don’t have anything yet (for the main event),” White said. “But I’m pretty confident Conor will be on that card, so we’ll see what happens.” Since his UFC arrival in 2013, McGregor (14-2 MMA, 2-0 UFC) has verbally sparred with numerous fighters in the 145-pound division. After a 2-0 UFC run, which pushed his current win streak to 10 fights, McGregor was sidelined following knee surgery, but the verbal jousting has continued

Conor McGregor wants on UFC’s Dublin card, willing to fight anyone

BAD MMA News — Sun, 09 Mar 2014 13:51:33 +0000

LONDON – Conor McGregor is continuing down recovery road, but the Irishman is eyeballing the UFC’s July event in his home city of Dublin for his return. The UFC earlier this week announced a July 19 show in Dublin, where the featherweight was born and raised. McGregor (14-2 MMA, 2-0 UFC) has been out since an August win over Max Holloway at UFC Fight Night 26. In that fight, he injured his knee and needed surgery. In the months since, he hasn’t been far from the MMA news feed thanks to mild Twitter spats with the likes of Cole Miller and Diego Sanchez – as well as, well, most of the elite in the featherweight division, whom he took to task in a word-association game for FOXSports.com . But with the July 19 show card now on the calendar, and the UFC no doubt hoping he’s healed enough to be on the show – perhaps as its headliner – McGregor might be getting antsy
