Multiple outlets report that Conor McGregor and UFC president Dana White respond to claims that McGregor was injured before his UFC 329 bout. According to the coverage, McGregor’s return fight does not go as planned: he struggles with a right-leg injury during the opening round, and the fight ends earlier than expected. The reported responses come amid public speculation about whether the injury existed prior to the event. While the sources describe the same central sequence—McGregor’s much-anticipated comeback, his difficulties in the first round due to a right-leg problem, and the resulting attention—the outlets emphasize that both McGregor and White are actively addressing the allegation of a pre-existing injury. Beyond that, details about what exactly is said in their responses are not included in the provided excerpts. Overall, the reports present the matter as a dispute over timing and circumstances of McGregor’s injury, following the abrupt outcome of the UFC 329 fight.
