Former UFC dual division champion, Conor McGregor recently shared a video of him walking for the first time since undergoing surgery a month and a half back. The ‘Notorious’ one had snapped his leg in the dying seconds of round 1 of his trilogy bout against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264.

Since the surgery, the Irishman has been constantly giving updates about his leg to his fans around the world. However, this is the first time he has shared a video of him walking. McGregor took to Instagram and wrote a post thanking his fans along with the video.

The UFC veteran wore a Paris Saint Germain (PSG) shirt while walking with a help of a treadmill. The Irishman termed this feat as ‘momentous’.

“Today is a momentous day !!! I walked for the first time since surgery. Bearing 50% of my big body weight! I also did it in the brand new “Irish Green” Virgil Louis Abloh’s! #youknowit @themaclife_style🇮🇪 to A long way to go yet but a massive personal boost for me today! Thank you all for the continued support, everyone God bless, happy,” he wrote.

From the video, we could also hear McGregor saying, “I’m waiting for myself, almost. That’s not bad, going all through the steps on the grid. This is a good machine, this is to get going.”

McGregor wearing a PSG shirt, shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone. The Irishman has a wonderful friendship with former Real Madrid turned PSG player Sergio Ramos. In fact, The ‘Notorious’ one had invited the latter for his matchup with Poirier last month, but Ramos couldn’t make it because of some reason.

What’s next for Conor McGregor?

McGregor will continue to sit on the sidelines till he gets medical clearance. The former UFC dual division champ will probably feature in a match next year. But who could be his options?

Conor and Dana White have echoed their voice for the fourth battle with Poirier. Although Poirier won’t mind facing a guy who he has beaten twice in a row and who also gives him truckloads of cash in the end.
