Conor McGregor claims to have an unbreakable leg
Conor McGregor seems to be even more confident about a comeback after undergoing surgery. With a titanium rod planted in his shin bone, McGregor believes he will be formidable after his recovery. Laying down a detailed recovery plan, Conor McGregor further updated his fans:
"I would have never committed to going under the knife unless something like this has happened. So something like this has happened, I'm going in, I'm getting exactly what I needed. And what I needed was a titanium shin bone. So now I've got a titanium rod down the knee. From the knee to the ankle. And the doctor said it's unbreakable. So once I build back you know...first of all I'll manage the incision, the cut. You know, make sure it doesn't get affected, keep the health on it. Keep building back that way. Then I have to start playing with the balance man, I have to stand on it again. Then I have to balance on the single leg again, then I'll build the strength and then I've got an unbreakable titanium leg."
