In the first bout, ‘The Diamond’, put on clinical striking performance and secured a KO win in the second round of UFC 257’s main event. McGregor choose to once again run it back at UFC 264, but the fight saw him suffer an unprecedented injury. The injured leg caused the fight to come to a stop, earning yet another victory for ‘Thhe Diamond’.
