Conor McGregor suffered a broken leg against Dustin Poirier at the recently concluded UFC 264
Coming into the match, with redemption on his mind, Conor McGregor suffered a devastating leg break at UFC 264. The Irishman had his left ankle snapped towards the end of the first round.
After a quick and thorough check from the Octagon officials, the fight was waved off and awarded to Poirier, via. TKO due to a doctor stoppage.
McGregor was operated on, the next day. Following his discharge from the hospital, McGregor put out a video on Instagram divulging that he had stress fractures and a weak ankle prior to the fight.
While many brushed it off as excuses, UFC President Dana White has revealed that McGregor has been suffering from ‘chronic arthritis’ in his ankle.
White told Fox News:
“He’s had ankle issues for the last couple of years. And, he had asked if he could tape his ankles coming into this fight, and he got clearance from the Nevada State Athletic Commission. And then he opted not to tape them, I don’t know why. He has chronic arthritis in his ankles.”
