UFC enthusiasts are convinced that Conor McGregor sustained an injury prior to his bout with Max Holloway. McGregor’s highly anticipated return at UFC 329 ended abruptly after just 69 seconds due to a suspected knee ligament injury, prompting speculation among fans that McGregor was already hurt before the fight began.
Fans expressed their concerns, with one stating, “Conor was definitely injured well before the event, and he had to fight through it, knowing he would disappoint many of his fans and the MMA community.” Another fan added, “Conor McGregor seemed to be limping before even stepping into the octagon. His lack of confidence and focus suggested he might have been injured beforehand.”
Rumors swirled about McGregor’s pre-fight condition, with one fan questioning, “Was Conor already injured when he missed the first episode of Embedded, and could the fight have been in jeopardy?”
McGregor took to social media to address the speculations, vehemently denying any pre-fight injuries. He stated, “I had no injury going into the fight. This came out of nowhere. I can only describe it as hell.”
Despite being booed as he exited the cage, McGregor received support from Holloway, who hinted at a potential rematch. Holloway praised McGregor’s toughness and expressed disappointment at the fight’s premature end, indicating a desire for a future rematch.
