Inside McGregor’s Notorious lifestyle
With more sides to his personality than an Octagon, Conor McGregor’s rise has been an enthralling watch.
But his comeback clash with Michael Chandler was cancelled after he suffered a broken left pinky toe in one of his final sparring sessions before jetting out to Sin City.
The UFC’s first-ever simultaneous two-weight world champion was left devastated by his withdrawal from his comeback clash.
He told SevereMMA: “August, September, I’d love [that]. I’m in recovery mode.
“It’s three weeks to the day, it happened three weeks ago today. I’m still here rocking around in the slippers.
“They’re not bad slippers, thankfully and they’re cosy enough but I can’t get into a shoe yet.
“They put stem cells in my foot.
“They came and took it from the back and put it in my foot, 20 mg of stem cells out of my own back, from the bone marrow in and right into the break.
“My f***ing toe is sore and I don’t know if the stem cells into the break was the right move.

“Because you know the way chicks put the filler in their face: my f***ing baby toe looks like that.
“I don’t think it’s the swelling anymore. I think it’s just the stem cells in my toe.”
