Rocket man! Conor McGregor will release ‘Notorious’ sequel, adopt whiny UFC fan in 2019

Think Conor McGregor is going to just quietly fade into the background after getting “knocked” by lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov at the UFC 229 pay-per-view (PPV) event last October in Las Vegas?

Think again.

The trash-talking Irishman is already back in the gym, which appears to be someone’s garage, and that may explain why he hasn’t seen or spoken to longtime coach John Kavanagh about his fighting future (or anything else).

McGregor teased “rockets” in his 2019 return to mixed martial arts (MMA), along with a sequel to his “Notorious” documentary and yet another addition to his Irish clan. Color me predictive, but I’m sure his Proper No. 12 will be making moves next year, as well.

Have a look:

Those rockets launched after the Mayweather fight.

His “Notorious” documentary hit theaters in Nov. 2017 (video).

No apology needed.

Told you that family was growing.

If promotion president Dana White has any say in the matter, McGregor will rematch Dustin Poirier at 155 pounds in the first quarter of 2019, while Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson settle their championship differences.

Unless something bad happens here.
