Conor McGregor is unquestionably one of the best fighters to have walked in the UFC. Although he’s been away from the octagon for a while now, but he’s utilizing this time to get recovered from the devastating injury he incurred in his last outing with Dustin Poirier. However, with all the time he had for himself in the hiatus, he’s decided to fix one of his biggest weaknesses that has cost him some big fights in his career. His stamina. That’s correct. ‘The Notorious’ seems to have taken up the oath to get rid of that shortcoming before his comeback in the UFC. Which appears to be a strong possibility to happen this year. On the other hand, fans are not really believing McGregor’s words and are rather critical of the UFC superstar’s bold claims.
