McGregor Resumes USADA Testing and Training as White House Return Remains Uncertain

Resuming USADA testing frames his push for a headlining spot at the planned 2026 White House event.

Overview

  • Dana White confirmed that McGregor has re-entered the UFC’s anti-doping pool and is posting training videos as evidence of his comeback efforts.
  • Recent sparring footage has showcased McGregor’s body-shot work but drew public mockery from figures like Jake Paul over the quality of his partners.
  • An automated UFC Roster Tracker reported McGregor’s removal from the active roster, though the promotion has not verified any official change.
  • Michael Chandler stated he doubts McGregor will return to the Octagon despite ongoing training and testing activity.
  • No fight contract has been signed and USADA rules requiring a six-month testing period keep any return date open-ended.
