UFC President Dana White says Conor McGregor “will be back in a year”

Fans of Conor McGregor have already begun anticipating the Irishman’s return to the Octagon

Conor McGregor knackered his ankle in the first round of his fight against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264. ‘The Notorious’ left ankle gave way at the very end of the first round.

After a brief and thorough inspection from the Octagon officials, he was declared unfit to carry on, and hence Poirier won the fight (due to a TKO by means of a doctor stoppage).

McGregor was taken to the hospital immediately, and was operated on, the next day. He was also slapped with a 6-month medical suspension, meaning he would not be able to compete even if he recovers in a double-quick fashion.

UFC President Dana White addressed the return of McGregor in an interview with TMZ Sports. He said that ‘Mystic Mac’ would be back in a year (after being released from the hospital yesterday).

White told TMZ Sports:
