Continuing his tour of the UK following his recent appearance at Anthony Joshua’s shocking loss to Daniel Dubois last month, UFC star, Conor McGregor took to the Arsenal soil in the capital overnight — play-sparring with the London club’s winger maestro, Bukayo Saka.
McGregor, a former undisputed lightweight champion and featherweight gold holder, has been out of action since he fractured his left tibia and fibula in a first round doctor’s stoppage TKO loss against Dustin Poirier over three years ago at UFC 264.
And eyeing a return to action in the opening months of next year, Conor McGregor withdrew from a slated headliner with Michael Chandler at UFC 303 back in June during International Fight Week, fracturing a toe on his left foot ahead of the welterweight main event fight.
