UFC 229: Conor McGregor Reports He’s Looking Forward to a “Rematch”, After Tap Out Loss to Khabib Nurmagomedov

Over the preceding months, questions have been raised as to how much longer Conor McGregor will continue to fight. But, following the star’s submission loss to rival and lightweight champ, Khabib Nurmagomedov last night at UFC 229, it seems clear McGregor will return to the cage.

Since McGregor was submitted by a fourth round, neck crank by Nurmagomedov, the former featherweight and lightweight champ shared out the brief comments below.

Good knock. Looking forward to the rematch.
