Conor McGregor has been pursuing the welterweight title for some time now. He has repeatedly stated his desire to face Kamaru Usman to become a three-division champion.
Speaking about a potential matchup against Usman back in March, McGregor told The Mac Life:
“I believe that’s the fight to make. I believe myself and Usman for the 170-pound title for my comeback fight is the one I’m eyeballing at the minute... I’ve already won the 155-pound title. I got myself down to a lightweight frame but I’m big now. I feel big, I feel strong, I feel healthy... and I feel confident about Usman, [who’s] a jab-happy, sloppy orthodox wrestler with no submissions whatsoever. What’s he gonna do? Where’s the danger here? I don’t see a danger with him. His ground and pound isn’t strong."

Joe Rogan weighs in on rumors of Conor McGregor fighting Kamaru Usman in a comeback bout
Joe Rogan appears unsatisfied with McGregor's willingness to fight Kamaru Usman upon his return.
While appearing on a recent episode of Hotboxin' with Mike Tyson, the popular podcaster argued that the Irishman should be looking for someone who is a "little below championship level."
Sharing his thoughts on the matchup, Rogan said:
"If Conor wants the most chance of success, I would say fight a guy who is a little below championship level. Maybe like a guy on the come-up, who Conor has an advantage over, but is still a competitive fight. Give him a test. But don't put him in there right away with Usman."
