Later. it was revealed that McGregor will have to serve a medical suspension up until the end of 2021.

"JUST IN: Conor McGregor has been given a medical suspension until January 7, 2022, unless he receives orthopedic clearance of his fractured left leg. Minimum suspension for six weeks, and no contact (sparring) until early to mid August, as per the combat sports regulator MMA."

McGregor is currently in recovery and has started working out to prepare for his comeback.

In a recent Instagram Live session, the former 145-pound and 155-pound kingpin revealed the advice he received from his coach John Kavanagh regarding his road to recovery.

"No rush, no rush... Just taking it day by day. As my coach John says, '24 hours at a time.' That's helped me big time, to be honest... John always says, 'take it 24 hours at a time.'... So I only do things 24 hours at a time now, and it's helping me in me training, it's helping me in recovery. Shout out coach Kavanagh for that one. If youse want to give that a shot, 24 hours at a time, take things. It's all we can do."
