Conor McGregor Wants Dana White To Book Him Against Frankie Edgar

Former two division UFC champion Conor McGregor hasn’t competed since UFC 229, where he suffered a fourth round submission loss to UFC Lightweight Champion Khabib Nurmagomedov.

It would appear that McGregor is ready for an Octagon returns, as he has told UFC President Dana White to book him against former UFC Lightweight Champion Frankie Edgar.

The whole exchange took place on Twitter:

Happy birthday Frankie, see you in December.

Thanks pal, I said yes already it’s on you and @danawhite to make it happen.

— Frankie Edgar (@FrankieEdgar) October 16, 2019

There you go White, make the bout. Give my purse to charity.
First responders.
One for All! @ProperWhiskey

There are currently three UFC events scheduled for December, with those events being UFC Fight Night Washington DC, UFC 245 and UFC Fight Night Busan. The most likely landing spot for a potential McGregor versus Edgar bout is UFC 245, if the bout happens at all. There has been no comment yet from White as to whether or not the fight is going to be put together.
