Ian Garry's stunning first-round KO in his UFC debut inspired Conor McGregor to double down on his recovery efforts.
'The Notorious' has been out of action since suffering a horrific broken leg injury while facing Dustin Poirier in July 2021. The Dubliner has been on the shelf since then, with a return touted for the summer of 2023 at the earliest.
Garry made his UFC debut just a few months after McGregor broke his leg. In his first fight in the UFC, Garry Knocked out Jordan Williams inside one round. The Portmarnock man has now revealed that McGregor reached out after the fight and said that he was inspired by Garry's performance.
