Conor McGregor gave an X-rated response to a fan after reports claimed he had been 'removed' from the official UFC roster.
UFC Roster Tracker claimed that the Dubliner had been removed from the active roster, but Dana White dismissed the reports, saying they were "Total b*******".
McGregor's team also dismissed the claim, with journalist Ariel Helwani speaking to the former two-weight champion and his team.
In a post shared on X, Helwani wrote: "Conor McGregor HAS NOT parted ways the UFC. Both @TheNotoriousMMA and his team confirmed this to me. He also confirmed he is back in the pool, has submitted tests and all have come back clean. 'It's all systems a go,' he said."
McGregor furiously responded to a fan who shared the claim on X, writing: 'First test fully clean. P****." He deleted the post shortly afterwards.
The Notorious is planning a comeback next year, with a potential return on 4 July 2026, following White's confirmation of the promotion's planned visit to the White House on that date. White revealed he has plans to meet with US President Donald Trump and his daughter Ivanka at the end of the month to finalise the arrangements.
This will be the first time a UFC fight card will be held at the White House. "It is definitely going to happen," White, a prominent supporter of the US president, told CBS television.
"I talked to him last night -- 'him' being the president -- and I'm flying out there at the end of this month, and I'm going to sit down and walk him through all the plans and the renderings, and we're going to start deciding what he wants and doesn't want."
The UFC boss added: "When he called me and asked me to do it, he said: 'I want Ivanka in the middle of this.' So Ivanka reached out to me, and her and I started talking about the possibilities, where it would be and, you know, I put together all the renderings."
White isn't ruling out the possibility of McGregor's return, but he'll insist his star fighter shows real commitment. "I mean, if you see, he's been posting videos of himself training, he's back in the pool now, he wants the White House fight," White told Pardon My Take.
"Listen, if he starts getting in shape and starts training and stays the course, that's the fight he wants, he keeps telling me he wants that fight so we'll see how it plays out over the next few months."
