McGregor’s Coach Says Camp Underway for Possible UFC White House Return in June

UFC booking remains unresolved, with his anti-doping suspension lifting in March 2026.

Overview

  • John Kavanagh says McGregor is "100 percent in," has returned to early-morning sessions, and has asked for a structured program through June.
  • Kavanagh reports assembling training partners for work split between the gym and McGregor’s home as part of a multi-month ramp-up.
  • Michael Chandler is identified by Kavanagh as the leading and logical opponent for a potential White House bout.
  • Dana White previously rebutted claims that McGregor’s return was set, saying matchmaking for the White House card begins in February.
  • Skepticism persists from figures such as Islam Makhachev and the Paul brothers even as McGregor’s camp presents its most concrete plan in years.
