Irish MMA Conor McGregor left a very laconic post on Twitter recently, making his fans think that the date of his next fight has been confirmed.
Dublin, December 14th.

But as McGregor was suspended earlier this year following a brawl with an elderly man in a Dublin pub and has not been booked for another fight, even after the suspension was lifted, fans were quick to comment on his post.

Others started to weigh on McGregor's chances of winning another fight.
As a huge fan I kind of wish you would actually retire. Another loss at this point would be real tough

In April, Conor McGregor had a brawl with a 50-year-old Dubliner, punching the man in the face in Dublin's Marble Arch pub. He later apologised for his behaviour but was suspended from participating in UFC fights. Last time McGregor fought in the octagon was in October 2018 when he lost to Russia's Khabib Nurmagomedov.
