Conor McGregor is using the iconic score by John Williams to compare himself to Superman.
If he’s referring to the drunken maniac from Superman III, then I’d say it’s a fair comparison. Either way, “Notorious” is hyping up “The Return” to the Octagon as part of the UFC White House fight card on June 14, streaming exclusively on the Paramount+ digital network.
UFC CEO Dana White has yet to confirm McGregor’s participation, but longtime rival Michael Chandler insists the fight is all but a foregone conclusion.
Don’t expect any confirmation while the Irish bad boy is still serving his drug-testing suspension, handed down last September after McGregor popped for a Whereabouts Violation. For a guy who refers to himself as “Mystic Mac,” you would have thought he’d know the drug testers were coming to visit.
Maybe he was too busy “stumbling around drunk.”
UFC White House is expected to be staged on the White House lawn (at great expense). No word yet on who will populate the once-in-a-lifetime lineup, but only “dignitaries” with lots of money and political connections will be able to attend, while the rest of us stay home and stream it on our respective devices.
McGregor, 37, has not competed in over five years.
