McGregor, who has only won one fight in the past five years, will likely be out of action until 2022.
The two-weight UFC champion in the past has switched to boxing when he faced Floyd Mayweather in 2017.
In a Q&A with his fans via social media, he suggested that MMA might be something he would like to leave later in his career.
He also said that his leg would be strong enough to allow him to win another UFC world title.
He wrote, "Possibly." The leg tho is more than capable of kick.
"I am billi walking straight towards a title shot on the return, and it sickens my bums.

"Which is why these constant disrespectful remarks come by way. God bless them.
McGregor also predicts that his sons, McGregor and McGregor, will follow him into the UFC as they get older.
The Notorious welcomed Rian, his third child, earlier in the year. Conor Jr, his first son is now four years.
In the Twitter Q&A, he said: "That child of mine is going do whatever he likes in this world."
"I will be there for him no matter what! He will, I believe. His younger brother Rian will, too.
"Interesting times are ahead. As long as they're happy, I'll be happy."
