McGregor\u2019s return comes after he had a severe leg fracture during UFC 264<\/a>, when he fought against Dustin Poirier.<\/p>\n

The injury happened after he took a bad step toward Poirier, falling back and landing in the cage.<\/p>\n

Initially, the broadcast team thought McGregor had fractured his ankle, but it later turned out to be a leg fracture.<\/p>\n

When McGregor suffered the leg fracture, the belief was that his fighting career would be over.<\/p>\n

McGregor was operated on by Dr. Neal ElAt<\/a>t<\/a>rache<\/a>, who has worked with many prominent professional athletes and also serves as the head physician for the Dodgers and Rams.<\/p>\n

During McGregor\u2019s recovery, ElAttrache supported him with therapeutic performance-enhancing drugs because of the severity of the leg fracture.<\/p>\n

Recently, ElAttrache was questioned<\/a> by MLB for reportedly providing performance-enhancing drugs to athletes.<\/p>\n

MLB eventually said it had no concerns <\/a>about ElAttrache treating its players. <\/p>\n
