The UFC president Dana White has once again shown his love for Conor McGregor by revealing that he would be open to giving him a title shot in his UFC return — this and much more on Tuesday's social media round🌟up.
Dana White not against giving Conor McGregor a title shot on his UFC return
In Conor McGr🐲egor's last UFC bou🍬t, he suffered a bad leg break at the end of the first round.
McGregor is still recovering from the injury and the surgery 🎶which he had to have and is now targeting a summer return to the Octagon.
The logical thi⭕ng for McGregor to do on his return would be to start from the ground up and get some warm up fights in before going in there with the top level fighters again, however, McGregor, as always wants only the best.
Recently on social media and in interviews, McGregor expressed his desire at wanting to fight the current UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveira. Despite the Irishman typically getting whatever he wants in the promotion, this fight makes 0 sense as McGregor has one win🐽 at lightweight in the last six years.
The UFC president Dana White has seemingly welcomed McGregor's proposal to want to fight Oliveira and he did not shut down tꦬhe idea of the fight when asked in an interview.

According to White, it will all depend on who the champion of the division is when McGregor is set to return which will decide whether or not he can ge♓t a title fight🥂.
This is further proof that in the UFC money matters an✃d despite having just 2 wins in the last six years, McGregor can still find himself in title fights by just having star power.
