Conor McGregor has made the decision to have his last UFC fight in 2027.

Conor McGregor is far from being done with UFC and MMA. Just months after undergoing surgery for his ACL injury against Max Holloway, McGregor has now announced his intentions to comeback next year. McGregor hopes to have his final fight in 2027.

The former UFC two-division champion McGregor recently weighed in on the economics of the boxing match between Canelo Alvarez and Christian Mbilli in Saudi Arabia. Alvarez secured a unanimous victory to reclaim the WBC Super Middleweight Title and soon sparked a flurry of tweets targeting McGregor. “The Notorious One” last fought at UFC 329 against Max Holloway in Las Vegas and suffered his third straight loss.

With still one fight left in his current UFC contract, McGregor wants to end his UFC career with zero regrets and on a record-breaking note. “How many views did the Canelo fight get? How many in attendance? Gate?

“Man I outdo ALL of these people in sales. Majorly. EVERY SINGLE ONE. With ease. Maybe even combined. I don’t even be trying. I was on the same time as the World Cup semi final and still done all them numbers in that last bullshit that I’ve to sit with for another few months before I return. I’m going to actually try to sell the fight for my next one. My final fight. See what numbers I can generate. Keep outdoing my own records,” McGregor wrote.

As of now, neither UFC nor McGregor has officially addressed or revealed his final opponent for his comeback fight next year in 2027. The Irishman had previously expressed his intentions to join BKFC after finishing up with UFC.
