What might be one of the biggest events for the UFC this year for the fans you ask? Well, it is undoubtedly the return of UFC’s most prominent face, Conor McGregor to the Octagon after three years of voluntary exile. The former dual weight champion will be facing Michael Chandler at 170 lbs to announce his return to the promotion. Regardless, his return is marred by the shadows of his injury that he got 3 years ago.

The last time McGregor went inside the Octagon, he suffered a deadly injury at the hands of Dustin Poirier. McGregor broke his shin completely which forced the MMA star to take a break from fighting altogether. It’s been three years since then and ‘Mystic Mac’ is about to return to his former self but is he ready to brace against one of the best?

According to McGregor’s training partner Brendan Loughnane, ‘Notorious’ was never in better shape than he is now. Loughnane claimed that he has seen enough to say with confidence that his entire money will be on McGregor in his fight. Even, coach John Kavanagh, who always stays strict with McGregor claimed that there have been no worries about his shin injury in his training.

Interestingly,͏ McGregor͏, i͏n hi͏s la͏test escapade, uploaded a ͏video of himself training with heavy kicks͏ on a punching bag. After the kicks, McGregor checked his shins and appeared pleased. This ͏development has sparked concern within the MMA co͏mmunit͏y, suggesting͏ that it could be a cause for worry for Mic͏hael Chandler.
