Conor McGregor has doubled his statement that he will fight at the White House in 2026, saying that it is a “treatment made” and “signed.”
McGregor, a former two -weight UFC champion, has not competed since he suffered a broken leg in July 2021, when he lost to Dustin Poirier for the second time in six months.
He retired from a planned return fight against Michael Chandler last June, citing a broken finger, but recently said he would face the American in the White House next summer.
Such an event is in process, with the president of UFC, Dana White, a nearby friend of the president of the United States, Donald Trump, who revealed rendered images of the octagon at the South Lawn. And McGregor insists that he will be involved.
“You can light the support to the people of Ireland, as we desperately need,” said the 37 -year -old Irishman, Fox News. “A agreement, signed, delivered.
“It is not a negotiation; it is a treatment made, signed, delivered. McGregor will compete in the White House for the 250th birthday of the United States.
“Dana and I are in constant communications. We have done incredible business together, I am the best generation fighter of all time (financially) in the last fighting championship.
“They have just signed an impressive treatment with Paramount, where we go to cable television. $ 7.7 billion that agreement that was approved.
“Ready to rock, baby. Bring the big dog. The Mac, the Mac G.”.
This week, McGregor said he was negotiating directly with the United States government, instead of the UFC White chief.
“I am not negotiating with the UFC on behalf of myself for this fight as usual,” he said. “I am negotiating with the United States of America on behalf of Ireland for this fight.
“It is peculiar. Trump and the administration have been totally supportive and support, and I can’t wait to make a show.”
McGregor recently said he wanted “$ 100 million” and “100 ‘us’ Golden Visas'” to fight at the event.
In September, McGregor withdrew from an attempt to become the president of Ireland, labeling the eligibility of his nation, the rules of a “strength shirt.”
Also last month, the president of UFC, White, said about the planned White House event: “We went to the White House last week, me and my team, and we had the first meeting with him (Trump). We understood all the representations and we began to get him to sign what he likes and does not like it. And now we loved it, so we are now immersed in Headfirst.
“The last time I was in the White House, I climbed to the White House roof, and have snipers with .50 coves all over the White House roof. It is quite crazy.
“But, I mean, security will be a massive problem, because at the end of the day, the work of the secret service is to protect the president.
“I don’t know how it will work in that people live there, on the White House grass. However, it will be less than 5,000.
“But … I can’t remember what they call it, but there is a park connected to the White House,” White continued, apparently referring to the president’s park. “We can put 85,000 people there with screens. We are going to put a great stage and do concerts. We will take control of Washington DC all that week.”
