Conor McGregor vented his frustrations on social media as he remains without a date for his UFC comeback fight.
‘Notorious’ has been absent from the octagon since July 2021 when he was defeated by Dustin Poirier and suffered a broken leg.

It has been widely speculated that McGregor would return to action with a fight against Michael Chandler at the blockbuster UFC 300 on April 13.
However, their clash is yet to be confirmed and with just a little over two months until the event, patience appears to be wearing thin.
McGregor took to Instagram on Tuesday and posted a video of him and Chandler on the MMA television series The Ultimate Fighter.
“Get this f****** date set,” read his caption, with the Irishman clearly eager to seal his long-awaited return to fighting.
Chandler told talkSPORT in December that he is confident their fight will take place in the first quarter of 2024.
However, fans are still awaiting an announcement, although UFC CEO Dana White said: “The UFC 300 main event is going to be crazy.”
Despite McGregor vs Chandler being so heavily speculated, former MMA star Daniel Cormier believes Nate Diaz could be his next opponent.
‘Notorious’ lost their first meeting in March 2016 before winning their rematch five months later, so a trilogy fight could be on the cards.

Ilia Topuria, who faces Alexander Volkanovski at UFC 298 for the featherweight title, has even called out McGregor for a fight.
He said: “He has a great fight with Mike Chandler. If he doesn’t get his a** whooped, he will be a pleasure to share the octagon with me.”
