Conor McGregor Refutes Chael Sonnen’s Salacious Rehab Claims

Recently, it was revealed that Conor McGregor would no longer be fighting at UFC 303 on June 29th. Overall, McGregor was set to face off against Michael Chandler. However, it was revealed by Dana White that McGregor was suffering from an injury. This report came weeks after McGregor had been spotted doing nothing but partying. There wasn’t a single clip of McGregor training or taking the fight seriously. For many fans, this news was an inevitability.

Following this news, Chael Sonnen was on his ESPN show Good Guy/Bad Guy where he was talking to Daniel Cormier about the McGregor news. That is when he made the claim that McGregor wasn’t actually injured. Instead, he was actually going through a bout of rehab. Ultimately, this news was salacious and many in the MMA world ran with it. However, according to a new report from TMZ, everything Sonnen said is allegedly false.

The last time we saw Conor McGregor in the Octagon, he broke his leg in a pretty gruesome fashion while going up against Dustin Poirier. Overall, it was a signal that McGregor is not the fighter he once was. It was the nail in the coffin for his rain of terror, and while fans expected him to come back, they knew it would be in a limited capacity. McGregor was set to return to the fighting world on June 29th during UFC 303, as he would take on Michael Chandler.

Understandably, fans were hyped. However, that excitement turned into skepticism as it became clear that McGregor wasn’t training. Instead, he appeared to be partying every weekend, while engaging in activities that aren’t conducive to winning a fight. Yesterday, White confirmed everyone’s suspicions by revealing that McGregor was out with an injury. Consequently, Chandler will no longer be on the card either.
