UFC enthusiasts speculate that Conor McGregor sustained an injury prior to his bout with Max Holloway.
McGregor’s return to the UFC at UFC 329 was short-lived, lasting only 69 seconds before he exited the fight due to a suspected knee ligament tear. Despite his silence upon leaving the arena, fans quickly began theorizing that McGregor was already injured before the match began.
One fan expressed, “Conor was undoubtedly injured well before the event, and he had to contend with it, knowing he would disappoint many of his fans and MMA enthusiasts. This is unacceptable, and UFC fans demand an immediate explanation, urging McGregor to retire now.”
Another observer noted, “Conor McGregor appeared to be limping before stepping into the octagon. His lack of confidence and focus suggested he may have been injured prior to the fight.” A third fan added, “It seems Conor was already carrying an injury when he entered the cage. Athletes never fully recover from such setbacks… Still, he remains a legend.”
Further speculation arose as another commentator questioned, “Rumors circulated that Conor McGregor was injured when he missed the first episode of Embedded, leading to concerns that the fight might be called off. Was McGregor already dealing with an injury?”
As McGregor faced boos exiting the cage, Holloway came to his defense, praising McGregor’s tenacity and suggesting a potential third bout between them. Holloway expressed disappointment over the abrupt end to the fight, emphasizing the desire for a rematch at 170 lbs.
