Conor McGregor has vowed to “kickstart UFC’s 2020 big” when he makes his return to the octagon against Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone this weekend.
The Irishman said there will be blood spilled when the two spar off at UFC 246 in Las Vegas and predicted a knockout.
McGregor has not fought in the octagon since losing to Khabib Nurmagomedov via submission at UFC 229 in October 2018.
Cerrone said he was relishing the bout at the T-Mobile Arena.
“I’m going five rounds with this dude and I cannot wait til Saturday night.
“This is the fight I wanted. Conor is one of the last of a dying breed of fighters and I can’t wait for Saturday night,” he said.
