Conor McGregor is without a doubt the biggest name in the UFC. ‘The Notorious’ is the only fighter on the UFC roster who can consistently sell over a million PPV buys. A McGregor fight commands the attention of everyone from a hard-core fan to someone who has little to no idea about the UFC and MMA in general. 

Given his fame and popularity, it is no surprise that every time McGregor fights, the arena is packed with the biggest celebrities. White stated that UFC 264 had the most number of celebrities in attendance compared to any other fight card they had put on before. One such celebrity in attendance was Justin Bieber, who recently stopped by to visit ‘The Notorious’ following his nasty injury. 

The Instagram caption said, “JB and Big Foot, we rule Beverly Hills! God bless my brother! Backed by the highest power! Huge congrats on your @balenciaga campaign and your @drewhouse! Can’t wait to get to the show tomorrow! Legends Unite! #ProperPopstarz #BreakfastThenTifannys @justinbieber @properwhiskey”

Justin Bieber is an ardent UFC fan and can often be seen ringside at PPV events. Furthermore, in a live stream before the third fight against Poirier, McGregor thanked Justin Bieber for his support after the loss at UFC 257.

Conor McGregor and his road to recovery

The common consensus was that McGregor would take around six months to recover. However, Dana White, in a recent interview, stated he expects McGregor to be out for about nine months and reckons that the superstar will fight around the same time next year. 

‘The Notorious’ underwent a three-hour surgery in order to fix his fractured tibia and fibula. McGregor is confident that he can make a full comeback and will be able to throw kicks as he used to before the injury. 

Moreover, he was extremely adamant about wanting to get back to fighting as soon as possible. It will be interesting to see how McGregor recovers from his injury. And how much time he will take to return to the sport.
