Quick read

Conor McGregor has suggested he is considering competing at middleweight. The post notes with humor that McGregor has been hinting at various fighting plans for approximately five years without materializing them.

McGregor's continued social media activity and fight teases have become a recurring pattern, leading to skepticism about his actual intentions.
