Conor McGregor is ready to unleash a "lethal weapon" when he makes his long-awaited return to the octagon next year.
The former two-weight world champion has been out of action since July of last year when he broke his leg during an ill-fated trilogy bout with rival Dustin Poirier at UFC 264, but has returned to training in anticipation of a comeback. And in sparring footage shared by McGregor recently, he appears to look in good shape for a return to action.
McGregor took to social media last night for an impromptu question-and-answer session with fans, where he declared that his injury was a "distant memory," and praised his "Masterful surgeons and team". He also declared that his once snapped leg "is now a lethal weapon".
