In another post on the platform, Conor referenced his plans to run for election in Ireland and seemingly confirmed that the fight will take place in 2026.
Conor writes in the post, “July 4th next year is a Saturday, regarding President Trump‘s UFC White House event. I will be reigning President of Ireland just under 1 year when I step out on the lawns of the White House to throw down. Epic proportions! Or as I like to call it, Tuesday at the office.”
He also shared an AI-generated image of himself and Michael Chandler at the White House gearing up for a fight.
If you didn’t know, Conor recently lost a court case and was ordered to pay a serious sum of money.
