Conor McGregor is now without a win in three years ahead of UFC return

Three years have passed since Conor McGregor's last UFC win as he continues to prepare for his highly-anticipated comeback fight.

Former two-weight champion McGregor, 34, has not won a fight in the promotion since knocking out now-retired Donald Cerrone in just 40 seconds at UFC 246. In the fight, which took place three years ago to the day, McGregor showed off his shoulder strikes in the opening exchange as Cerrone was blooded up early doors.

The American was badly hurt by a head kick and went down, which prompted his Irish rival to follow up and get the ground-and-pound finish. The win marked McGregor's second-fastest UFC finish to date, only topped by his 13-second knockout against Jose Aldo in December 2015 which crowned him featherweight champion.
