Conor McGregor was attacked for his latest training assembly.
It was a minute since we have seen the former Two-Division UFC champion in action. McGregor's last fight under the UFC banner came in July 2021 against Dustin Poirier, which ended with a broken leg for McGregor.
Things seem to be looking up at McGregor a year after he withdrew from his fight against Michael Chandler at UFC 303, while the Irishman tries to return to Vecht form in the gym.
According to BKFC boss David Feldman, McGregor is working hard to prepare for the winner of Mike Perry vs. Jeremy Stephens at BKFC 82.
