But supporters online were left fearing that McGregor’s proposed return fight with Michael Chandler faces the KO.
One said: “This fight with Chandler is definitely not happening.”
Another agreed: “There is no way he’s fighting this year.”
One added: “He should be in the gym focusing on Chandler. If he losses again. Man that will he heart breaking.”
Another wrote: “He clearly isn’t in fight camp.”
The UFC in April announced that McGregor would face Chandler in his comeback bout after the two coached on The Ultimate Fighter.
But the reality series – where contenders live, train and fight together for a UFC contract – has already been filmed and set to air.
Still no date, venue or weight has been confirmed for McGregor’s fight with Chandler, raising concerns.

And the Irishman is required to do six-months worth of United States Anti-Doping tests before being cleared to fight following his recent break.
Per records on USADA’s website, McGregor is so far yet to lodge a test, which left even more doubt about his return.
But the former two-weight champion, speaking at his pub in Ireland, appeared to confirm the testing issues are resolved.
McGregor, 34, said: “That’s done, man. That’s done. Year end, I’m back in that cage having competed. I’m gearing up ready to go.”
USADA later that he is set to re-enter the testing pool but will need half a year of clean tests before being cleared to fight.
A statement read: “We have recently been in direct contact with Conor McGregor, and as he confirmed today in the media, we expect to receive his paperwork coming out of retirement and re-entering the USADA testing pool immediately.
“Like other athletes who come out of retirement, under the UFC Anti-Doping Policy, McGregor will be subject to testing for at least six months and must provide at least two negative samples before being permitted to compete.
“The purpose of this rule is to ensure that all athletes who are not subject to a period of testing are adequately tested over a reasonable period of time before competing to ensure a level playing field for all athletes.”
McGregor also claimed confirmation for his fight against Chandler is set to be revealed after the release of TUF.
He said: “Michael Chandler, yeah. It will be announced during The Ultimate Fighter.
“So The Ultimate Fighter is airing now in a couple of days on ESPN, and by the time that show finishes we’ll have a date and everything set for the fans.”
McGregor has been sidelined since July 2021 when he broke his leg against Dustin Poirier, 34.
But he had a successful surgery and has spent the period since rehabilitating and recovering.
Chandler, 37, has lost three of his five UFC fights, most recently against Poirier in November.
