Conor McGregor has teased the "greatest sports comeback in history" as the former two-weight UFC champion gears up for his octagon return.
McGregor, 34, returned to full training last month ahead of his highly anticipated UFC return. The Irishman hasn't fought since breaking his tibia against Dustin Poirier in their UFC 264 trilogy bout last year. McGregor underwent surgery for his injury, having a metal rod fitted in his leg before an intense course of rehabilitation.
His fighting future was put into question when he recently tweeted: "MMA, I’ll never forget you! Easy work". Fans were unconvinced McGregor was retiring from MMA and the UFC star has now promised to make a triumphant return to the sport. "The greatest and the biggest sports comeback in history," McGregor wrote accompanied by a video of his past UFC fights. "Will you be a witness?"
