Hoping to land himself a return to the Octagon in the new year, former champion, Conor McGregor has been ripped on social media by fans of the UFC star — who have poked fun at his bag work striking in recent training footage published by the Dubliner.
McGregor, a former undisputed lightweight champion and featherweight gold holder, has been sidelined from combat sports for the last three years-plus, dropping a stunning first round doctor’s stoppage TKO loss to Dustin Poirier after fracturing his tibia and fibula.
And booked to return at UFC 303 in the headliner of the International Fight Week card in June, McGregor withdrew from a welterweight clash with Michael Chandler, after fracturing a toe on the same foot in the weeks ahead of the pairing in Las Vegas.
