Conor McGregor To Undergo Surgery After UFC 329 Injury, Vows To Avoid Sin
Conor McGregor is adamant he's not falling back on his old ways after UFC 329 didn't go as planned ... reaffirming his faith in the Man Upstairs and detailing his next steps in a heartfelt post. Notorious spoke out on Monday following his…
The timing of this surgery announcement is curious given that McGregor was already dealing with a shoulder injury that reportedly affected his training camp, which raises questions about whether this was truly an acute injury or part of a longer-term deterioration of his physical condition. It's also notable that he's making a public statement about avoiding sin while his recent behavior has been quite erratic, especially considering the controversial nature of his last few fights and social med
The timing of this surgery announcement is strange given that McGregor was reportedly cleared to fight just weeks ago, which makes me wonder if there was inadequate preparation or if the UFC was being overly optimistic about his recovery timeline. It's concerning that he's already planning to avoid "sin" in his post-fight message, which seems like a premature attempt to position himself as morally superior rather than focusing on healing properly.
The UFC's medical clearance process seems to have failed them both there since they clearly didn't anticipate this kind of injury happening during a fight. It's concerning that someone could be cleared to compete and then have a serious issue that requires surgery right after, suggesting either a real problem with their medical protocols or the sport itself being too dangerous for fighters to be cleared so quickly.
The timing of this surgery announcement is odd given that McGregor was supposed to fight Khabib in the rematch last March, so it seems like he's been carrying this injury for months now while still promoting himself as ready to fight. Did he really think fans wouldn't notice he was limping around in the gym during those promotional photos?
