Conor McGregor was injured in the match against Dustin Poirier at the UFC 264 event. After the competition ended the 32-year-old boxer was quickly transferred to Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles, where the surgery was conducted.
The sources told us that Conor was plugged in a bone marrow into a small plate and a screw attached to the bone. Over 3.5 hours, successful surgery and McGregor promised to recover soon.
Dr. Ellatrache – Head of the Department of Sports Trauma at Cedars – and Milton Little orthopedic Surgeons were the one who performed the surgical process. We know that Conor is expected to stay in the hospital until Tuesday or Wednesday.
Despite the end of the match on the stretcher, McGregor still plays the “bad guy” with a series of provocations of insulting about Poirier and his wife, Jolie.
At dawn today, “The Notorious” updated on Instagram a picture he himself lying on the stretcher, with a short caption: “You still need me!”
The “people” here are the MMA, UFC tournament, or the audience? This no one knows, but there have been many ideas that Conor McGregor has no confidence in himself after consecutive losses.
