Monday, folks around the world formally said farewell to the weekend and went back to the ol’ 9 to 5. For former UFC double champion Conor McGregor, these days that means clocking in to MMA Twitter.

Among McGregor’s tweets Monday, he made an interesting claim. He said that when he makes his return from injury next year, his first match back will be a world title shot.

““Hi lads, here goes, clicks and the like. Your boss and what not. The Mac. Santy Claus. I’m facing whoever the fuck has that LW title next. Deal with it. Take off your goggles and mark the trilogy “unfinished”. Deal with that too. The rest mentioned, after this. Deal. With. It,”
