McGregor, 33, had surgery in Los Angeles on the next day. He is now determined to be more powerful than ever when he returns from the octagon.
UFC's first simultaneous world champion at two weights, said to TMZ that they are in recovery. We're recovering, sir.
"That's exactly what we are doing. It's going to take some recovery. It will take some recovery.
It's doing well, it's doing well. It's been great for three weeks and three days.
The UFC poster has resumed light training and is now able to lift some weights to keep him fit.
President Dana White anticipates that the Irishman will resume full training in April.
White stated that Conor has been out for one year during a appearance on The Pat McAfee Show.
"The doctor stated that it would take nine months for him to start training again. We're considering it a year.
"I don't even think about it."
McGregor's leg injury is not yet known. Poirier and the Dubliner have differing opinions.
McGregor claims that he entered his Sin City Series decider with The Diamond with multiple stress fractures in his left leg.
In a six-minute Instagram video, he stated: "The leg has never been better."
"I was hurt going into the fight. People ask me when the leg was broken.
"At what point did it break?" Dana White asks. Ask the UFC. Dr. Davidson is the UFC's head doctor.
They found out that I had stress fractures in my leg when I went into the cage.
"There was some debate about taking the thing out, because I was sparring with no shin pads, and I would kick my knee a few time.
"So, I suffered multiple stress fractures above my ankle in the shin bone and then I still have problems with my ankle after all these years of fighting."
