Conor reveals he broke his foot three weeks prior UFC 229

Former two-division UFC champion Conor McGregor(21-4) revealed today that he suffered a serious injury three weeks before his highly anticipated fight last October against Khabib Nurmagomedov (27-0).

"The Notorious" tweeted that he's very happy with his approach of the fight and his defence, even though the Irish looked like a shell of himself in all of the 4 rounds against "The Eagle".

The Irishman also revealed that he broke his foot three weeks before his clash with Nurmagomedov but takes pride in his determination to march forward on fight night.

The melee after the fight got both superstars suspended, but Conor's ban expired on April 6th and he's eligible to compete again inside the Octagon. UFC Presiden Dana White had stated that McGregor is only interested in a rematch with the Russian, but even if a second bout between them happen, it probably won't be in 2019.
