TRIPLE-HEADER SET TO TAKE PLACE ON YAS ISLAND

Conor McGregor will be making a return to Abu Dhabi, bounding out of retirement to take part in the UFC's triple-header week, starting Saturday January 16. The UFC made the announcement recently, revealing that the organisation's first three bouts of 2021 will take place on Abu Dhabi's Fight Island.

McGregor will be making his much-anticipated return to UFC against lightweight rival Dustin Poirier, in what is sure to be a heavy-hitting event. The rematch for UFC 257 on January 23 comes off the back of McGregor's June retirement from the sport - although we shouldn't be too surprised seeing his name in lights again, given this was his third retirement in the space of four years.
