NextImg:Conor McGregor reveals injury that forced him out of UFC 303

Conor McGregor’s injury has been revealed as a broken toe that he sustained during a training session just before the fight.

“We had a lapse in concentration and engaged in a training session without wearing the full protective gear and I hit the toe off the elbow and broke the toe clean,” McGregor said in an Instagram post on Friday. “It needs a few weeks that’s it.

“The fans deserve it and we are getting close. A slight lapse in concentration and a nuisance of an injury was picked up. That’s it. Take the lesson and move forward. I will get this back… I’ve got two fights left on my contract.”

There was baseless speculation that McGregor was in rehab due to partying habits, but his public relations manager told The Post that this was not the case.

“Mr McGregor is with his family — and any other reports are incorrect,” said Karen Kessler, McGregor’s public relations manager. “He is looking forward to a rescheduled date for his next fight.“

The Post previously reported that McGregor would be ready by August or September, although the promotion will likely have to build up an entirely new fight card in order for that to happen.

UFC 305 is currently scheduled for Perth, Australia while UFC 306 is at The Sphere in Las Vegas.

Neither of which figure to be a venue for a McGregor fight night, as the Irishman hasn’t fought in MMA outside of the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas since 2016.
