Conor McGregor has revealed that he'll be returning to the UFC in January 2020.
The MMA star announced the news to the media at a press conference in Moscow.
His comeback fight is scheduled for January 18th and will be held in Las Vegas, Nevada.
McGregor last fought in October 2018 when he faced Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 229 also in Las Vegas.
According to the father-of-two;
'That is my comeback fight. It’s 12 weeks from today. I’m in prime physical condition. I have agreed the date with the [UFC]. As far as the opponent, I have the opponent’s name, but for me, the game I am in and from experience, if I was to give you people the name, which I would love to do, the UFC would flip it.'
'January 18, the return of the notorious Conor McGregor at the T-Mobile arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. That will be the beginning of my season', he added.

The Proper No. Twelve founder told reporters that he is going straight from this tour to camp and won't be seen until the fight.
His parting words; 'I am going to go through the entire roster like a chainsaw through butter. Make no mistake about that.'
