Conor McGregor Hits Pads As He Vows To Make Greatest Comeback Ever

Conor McGregor’s recovery from the broken leg he suffered early in the year appears to be going well as he’s now released video footage of him back to hitting pads in the gym, while vowing that he’s on course to make ‘The greatest comeback in sports history.”

“First time back on the pads! What a buzz!” McGregor wrote on Instagram alongside the video. “Like my good friend @schwarzenegger says, ‘I’ll be back, bitches!’ Back with a vengeance! Thank you to all my doctors and my team for getting me this far so soon after surgery! There is work to be done but doing work is what I’m known for. Strap yourselves in for the greatest comeback in sports history!”

McGregor also posted a further video of him shadowboxing and indicated he should be doing everything from running to kicking by the start of next year.

“2 more months I am able to kick, grapple and run again. Ecstatic and grateful at my position current. Watch the work get put in now. 8 weeks left this calendar year. Perfect to get a head start on 22’. You think a broke bone stop me? Ho I’ve 3 legs.”
