McGregor reveals ACL and meniscus tear in opposite knee, eyes comeback by next summer

Conor McGregor disclosed that his UFC 329 loss to Max Holloway left him with ACL and meniscus tears in the opposite knee from his earlier injury, a combination he calls the same injury he suffered 13 years ago. He says modern regenerative medicine and training could allow a return by next summer, noting he’s walking without a crutch and has begun rehab, despite a lengthy decline since his peak and a 1-4 record in his last five fights.
