Conor McGregor has once again promised to quit drinking ahead of his return to the octagon later this year.
The Dubliner has been enjoying life as he rehabilitates from his broken leg, and is often seen drinking at his plush Dublin pub The Black Forge Inn.
But the former two weight world champion insists he will quit drinking ahead of his comeback to the UFC, Mirror UK reports.
And the Notorious one is angling for an immediate title fight despite losing three of his last four outings.
The Irishman was in attendance at Bellator Dublin on Friday night, where he spoke about how he plans to get cleared for competition within the next few months and then quit drinking.
"Once I get the leg cleared and I get that feeling when I kick a body, step back in and out, then I'll be able to gauge time," McGregor told SevereMMA.
"Then I'm going to isolate myself, stay away from the pub, stay away from my Forged Irish stout, my delicious smooth Proper 12 Irish whiskey and dedicate myself to my craft 100 per cent.
"I'll give it a month or two of that and see how everything goes and then make the move [for a comeback].
"Im in no rush, I know there are a lot of people supporting me, I want to do them well and that's what we're going to do."
McGregor has been back walking for some time now, and expects to return to sparring in April ahead of a possible July fight date.
International Fight Week takes place in Las Vegas on the first weekend of the month, and he has indicated that it's possible he returns for that event.
He has no opponent in mind as yet, but told Mirror Fighting that he is hoping to get another title opportunity in his first fight back.
