"Mike Tyson now you will fight Jake Paul. He faced Roy Jones too. There you have it: he's an older guy. When he fought Roy Jones Jr, something that stuck with me was that he was asked about Roy Jones Jr, also an old guy, retired for so long, why? Recalibrate your competition. There's a reason why in jiu-jitsu tournaments there is a veterans division. So, I don't feel like I can ever call it a day (my career) until I'm lying flat. In a coffin, going to the ground, that's when I'll call it quits. It's until death. It’s to the point of f***ing death,” said Conor.

The last professional fight of Conor McGregor happened in July 2021, when the Irishman seriously fractured his leg in the trilogy against Dustin poirier. After a long recovery time, the 'Notório' starred in the thirty-first edition of the reality show 'The Ultimate Fighter' against the veteran Michael chandlerHowever, the duel between the two does not yet have an official date.
