He’s baaaaaaack!
Conor McGregor has returned to the U.S. — he’s got a fight here in 2 weeks — and he’s already hitting the ground running … literally.
“Out running on the streets of Las Vegas today,” McGregor said over the weekend … “We are two weeks from fight night!”
“So great to be back on U.S soil.”
Of course, McGregor is taking on Cowboy Cerrone at UFC 246 on January 18th at the T-Mobile Arena in Vegas in his first fight since losing to Khabib Nurmagomedov in Oct. 2018.
But he’s not coasting into the fight — McGregor’s been training since his arrival. In fact, Conor ran into UFC star Dominick Cruz during a session at the UFC Performance Institute.
Before this trip, we hadn’t seen Conor in America since around the time he was being prosecuted for stomping on a cell phone outside of a Miami hotel back in March.

The Irishman pled not guilty and the charges were ultimately dropped after the victim stopped cooperating with police … but it wasn’t a good look for Conor.
Since then, CM’s had other problems … he punched a man in a bar in Ireland for no good reason during an incident in April and reportedly been investigated for 2 alleged sexual assaults in his home country. He adamantly DENIES the allegations in both cases.

But now, Conor’s focus is getting back in the “Win” column — he hasn’t been victorious in the UFC since a Nov. 2016 victory over Eddie Alvarez … and Cowboy has made it clear this ain’t gonna be a cake walk.
