Video shows Conor McGregor visiting pain clinic before UFC 329 injury
A newly released video shows Conor McGregor entering a Newport Beach pain-management clinic weeks before his UFC 329 bout, where he later suffered a self-inflicted knee injury that ended the fight against Max Holloway.
A video that has recently been made public shows UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor entering the Newport Pain Management Clinic in Newport Beach, California, in the weeks leading up to his UFC 329 fight against Max Holloway. The clinic provides treatments such as physical therapy, nerve blocks and ketamine therapy for chronic pain.
During the event on June 10, McGregor attempted a flying kick that missed, and a few seconds later he suffered a self-inflicted knee injury that forced the referee to stop the bout. The early termination sparked speculation that McGregor may have entered the fight already injured.
The UFC broadcast team noted an unusual step by McGregor before his entrance, fueling rumors that the organization was aware of a pre-existing injury. McGregor has denied those claims, but the newly surfaced footage adds context to the discussion.
While the video confirms McGregor’s presence at the pain-management facility, it does not specify the reason for his visit or confirm that it was related to his knee. No further medical details have been released by McGregor’s camp or the UFC.
