Dee Devlin says Conor McGregor is 'beyond blessed' after UFC star 'got away with his life' following collision with car

Dee Devlin says Conor McGregor was 'beyond blessed' after he was hit by a car while out cycling on Friday afternoon.

The UFC star was struck by a car as he cycled in the countryside near his home in Co Kildare, stating that the driver was unable to see him because of the low sun.

Sharing a photo and two videos on Instagram, McGregor wrote: "Got a bang of a car just now from behind. A sun trap, the driver couldn’t see me. Full speed straight thru me. Thank you God, it wasn’t my time. Thank you wrestling and judo also. Having an awareness on the landing saved my life."
