Conor McGregor Injury Revealed: Dana White Confirms After UFC 329 Defeat
White said McGregor needs knee surgery and physical therapy, with recovery from the ACL injury expected to take nine months to a year.
- UFC president Dana White confirmed superstar Conor McGregor suffered a torn ACL during the main event against Max Holloway, with the injury occurring just 69 seconds into the fight.
- Typically, recovery from an ACL injury requires nine months to a year, and White stated that McGregor must undergo surgery and physical therapy before returning to training.
- Because McGregor has only one fight left on his current UFC contract, the organization has time to decide how to approach his final appearance.
- Holloway indicated he is willing to wait until 2027 for a trilogy bout against the Irishman, interested in the significant payday associated with a third encounter.
- The UFC must secure alternative stars to headline cards for the next year while McGregor is out, maintaining flexibility for his eventual return.
